Question about adding a variable as Event Action. I see that this variable was measured upon triggering the Click Event. Can I use as a variable? How do I that? It doesn’t show in the list when adding the trigger?

Hi @jurgen.vandevelde,

Currently we don’t have page title as a built in variable. If you would like to have access to it, please create new variable and then you would be able to use it. Below is screenshot of how it should look like:

Hi Adam

I added the variable ([Tag Manager](https://marlux-stradus.piwik.pro/tag/app/cfb842fa-8a37-401d-b354-32983623d456/variables/447ccf1e-4f4d-4551-8498-af3d33868002/edit)) and assigned it to the tag [Tag Manager](https://marlux-stradus.piwik.pro/tag/app/cfb842fa-8a37-401d-b354-32983623d456/tags/6c1e4fec-4597-4e65-9a03-4b018b371a8f/edit) but it doesn’t do anything.

Do I need more settings? (Totally new to this)

Hi @jurgen.vandevelde,

Now you should use this variable by typing {{ Page Title }} in the Custom Event parameter. For example like this:
