Chartbeat pings need site id h and account UID g

h is the Chartbeat site id, usually the dashboard host. g is the numeric account UID from config.uid. p, d, t, g0, g1, and i are QA ping keys, checked when present. static.chartbeat.com loaders are not this pack.

What this pack matches

Hosts: ping.chartbeat.net
Paths: /ping
Vendor docs: docs.chartbeat.com/cbp/tracking/standard-websites/qa-web-integration

Rules

Codes are stable. A finding in CI, MCP, or the playground lands on the same id.

Field	Required	What it checks	Rule ids	Source
`h`	required	It is the Chartbeat site id, the host where traffic appears in the dashboard. Chartbeat documents it as the `config.domain` value on the ping. Fix: Set `h` to the site id from the Chartbeat snippet, usually the site's root domain.	`vendor.chartbeat.param.h.missing` `vendor.chartbeat.param.h.empty`	docs
`g`	required	It is the numeric Chartbeat account UID from `config.uid`. Fix: Set `g` to the numeric uid from the Chartbeat snippet.	`vendor.chartbeat.param.g.missing` `vendor.chartbeat.param.g.empty` `vendor.chartbeat.param.g.invalid`	docs
`p`	optional	It is the page path. Chartbeat documents it as a ping key to check in QA, from `config.path` or the canonical path. Fix: Set `p` to the canonical path Chartbeat should report.	`vendor.chartbeat.param.p.empty`	docs
`d`	optional	It is the actual domain of the page, which may differ from `h`. Chartbeat documents it as a ping key to check in QA. Fix: Set `d` to the page's domain, or the canonical domain when `useCanonicalDomain` is true.	`vendor.chartbeat.param.d.empty`	docs
`t`	optional	It is the unique identifier for the page-session. Chartbeat documents each distinct `t` as a separate pageview. Fix: Send a stable page-session id in `t` so successive pings on the same view stay together.	`vendor.chartbeat.param.t.empty`	docs
`g0`	optional	It is the comma-delimited list of sections from `config.sections`. Chartbeat documents it as a ping key to check in QA.	`vendor.chartbeat.param.g0.empty`	docs
`g1`	optional	It is the comma-delimited list of authors from `config.authors`. Chartbeat documents it as a ping key to check in QA.	`vendor.chartbeat.param.g1.empty`	docs
`i`	optional	It is the page title. Chartbeat documents it as present on the first ping of a page-session.	`vendor.chartbeat.param.i.empty`	docs
