Tracking Core Web Vitals
Introduction
AMP developers can measure Core Web Vitals metrics through the amp-analytics component. Use variable substitution to add these metrics to any outgoing requests made by amp-analytics.
Learn more about amp-analytics in our guide Analytics: the basics.
Setup
Import the amp-analytics component in the header.
<script async custom-element="amp-analytics" src="https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-analytics-0.1.js"></script>
Using amp-analytics to track Core Web Vitals
The amp-analytics component provides the following macros:
- Largest Contentful Paint:
${largestContentfulPaint} - Cumulative Layout Shift:
${cumulativeLayoutShift} - First Input Delay:
${firstInputDelay}
While you can attach these macros to any trigger, they resolve individually and asynchronously. Since a trigger will not complete until all macros have resolved, it is often best to split each macro into it's own seperate trigger to prevent underreporting.

Tracking Core Web Vitals in AMP using Google Analytics
Analytics must be configured in the body. Here we use the type=gtag attribute and value to enable Google Analytics to track pageviews and use the extraUrlParams feature to append the Core Web Vitals to the request URL.
We also set the data-credentials attribute to "include" to enable cookies.
$CALC(${cumulativeLayoutShift}, 1000, multiply)
<amp-analytics type="gtag" data-credentials="include">
<script type="application/json">
{
"vars": {
"gtag_id": "G-XXXXXXXX",
"config": {
"G-XXXXXXXX": {
"groups": "default"
}
}
},
"requests": {
"event": "https://amp.dev/documentation/examples/advertising-analytics/tracking_core_web_vitals/ping?user=&account=ampdev&event=${eventId}",
"CWV_EVENT": "${event}&type=CWV"
},

"on": "visible",
"request": "pageview",

}
},

Google Analytics 4 and AMP
For more information on how to set up Google Analytics 4 with amp-analytics see amp-analytics dev guide and Tag setup for AMP documentation.
Comparing performance on AMP Cache vs Origin
AMP Caches work to make sure your users have as great an expierence possible, but it is important to make sure that the Origin version of the page is just as performant. Your Core Web Vitals may be negativly impacted if your AMP page performs really great when served from an AMP Cache, but less well on the origin. A good way to make sure you are delivering a great experience for all your users is to keep track of how your pages' Core Web Vitals are performing on and off of the AMP Cache.
We can build on our Google Analytics to do this. One of substitutions provided by amp-analytics is ampdocHost - this lets us track the URL of the page the user visited. We exand our earlier config using extraUrlParams. This lets us define a custom key and value for our analytics events. We need to set up a new Custom Dimension, that will be used as the key.
Once you have created the Custom Dimension to track the AMP Host, make sure you note the Index listed on the analytics page. This number is used in our configuration objects to connect ampdocHost to the Dimension you just created. Below we assume your index was "1", (i.e. cd1). If your Index is 2, then use cd2, etc.
