  2. Add a custom JavaScript code: To trigger a JavaScript action, you need to add custom code to your project. To do this, go to the page settings by selecting the page in the Pages panel. Click on the "Custom Code" tab and scroll down to the "Footer Code" section.

<script>    window.addEventListener('scrollIntoView', function() {        console.log('Scroll interaction triggered');        // Your custom code here    });</script>
  1. Save and publish: Save your changes and publish your Webflow project for the code changes to take effect.
