The SG-Admin Phone Taps module — call-tracking signals, attribution, event surfacing.
The Phone Taps module in the admin is the per-site surface for call-tracking. When visitors tap a phone link on the public site, the platform records the tap event with attribution context. Operators use this to understand call-driven conversion alongside form submissions and other capture channels. This page is the Reference definition.
What is this for?
Read this page when you want the structural definition of phone-tap tracking — what gets captured, what attribution attaches, and where the data surfaces.
Good use cases
- You are scoping call-driven conversion tracking.
- You are explaining to a stakeholder how SGEN handles phone-link analytics.
- You hit a "did our phone CTA drive any taps?" question.
What NOT to use this for
- Step-by-step procedures — open the relevant Guide.
- Per-release shipped change — open What's New or Changelog.
How this connects to other features
- SG-Admin Overview — parent surface.
- Analytics — broader analytics surface that surfaces tap signals.
- Lead and Tracking Workflow — workflow Phone Taps participates in.
Where to find it
Open SG-Admin for the active site. Phone Taps is in the sidebar under the analytics or reporting group. The tap log and per-number summary are accessible to Editor and Admin users.

Scope
Covers tap event tracking, attribution, surfacing. Does not cover voice-call recording (out of scope) or per-step setup (Guides).

The number tapped. Multiple numbers can be tracked per site.
Source page

Examples
Example 1 — Operator scopes call CTAs for a campaign

Example 2 — Operator compares tap volume across pages
Operator reviews the per-page tap distribution to understand which pages drive the most call interest. The data informs page placement of phone CTAs.
Example 3 — Stakeholder asks "are calls tracked?"
Operator opens this Reference + the Phone Taps module surface, shows the tap log + summary view.
