) a snippet in the Shopify Liquid as well as a Checkout integration, which leverages Shopify App Pixels.
You can check which integration checks which events in the Integration Event Spec.The difference between the Liquid Pixel and the Checkout Pixel is that the Checkout Pixel is completely sandboxed by Shopify and loads with a large delay, see more info here on the limitations of App Pixels.
This is undesirable for events such as $page_load
, where a user may browse away before the Converge pixel is loaded and before this event can be tracked.For that reason, you would want to track all events in the theme.liquid
