Yes, this can be accomplished through Google Analytics. For both Universal Analytics and GA4, Google provides a JavaScript code, known as the tracking code, which collects data about your site.

For Universal Analytics, the tracking code could be customized for specific events. However, instead of directly manipulating the code, custom events are… Read more

This discrepancy might be arising due to differences in the timing of data availability between Google Analytics 4 (GA4) and BigQuery. In GA4, data usually shows up in reports within a few hours of it being collected, but sometimes it can take longer. However, with BigQuery, exported data is typically available in just a few minutes. Therefore,… Read more

Sure, all this is saying is – See if you’ve got something like AdBlock working or if Firefox is set to block marketing tags. Because in these cases, even though GTM Preview shows that everything’s good to go, the browser might be stopping the data from actually heading out. Another thing to check out is if you have a filter set up in your GA… Read more

Hey there,

I’ve got this problem that’s driving me nuts! You see, I run this e-commerce site, and I’ve been using GA4. I’m also exporting data from GA4 to BigQuery using their handy export function (link: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/9358801).

Now here’s where it gets tricky. I used GA4’s search tool to whip up a report counting… Read more

The error message you received indicates that the ‘google.rpc’ module was not found. This module is included in the ‘grpcio’ library. The version 1.51.1 of this library you are currently using might not have been installed correctly, thus causing the import error. I would recommend you to uninstall the ‘grpcio’ and ‘grpcio-tools’ libraries and… Read more

“Hey peeps, I need some help with this Google Analytics Data API. I’ve got a custom dimension defined for a GA4 account and I’m trying to fetch some data using Python (you can check out my code below). What I’m aiming to get is the ‘totalPurchasers’ and ‘purchaseRevenue’ for different ‘eventName’ in different ‘campaignName’.

When I look at… Read more

Certainly, mate. The basic idea is to push the event data into the data layer which GTM can access and then send it to GA4. To do this, you’d modify your “doThis” function to push your event data into the ‘dataLayer’ like so:

`javascript
function doThis() {
window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
window.dataLayer.push({… Read more

Your problem seems to be related to an SSL Certificate not being recognized by Firebase/Google Analytics. One of the primary causes of SSLHandshakeException is that the SSL certificate presented by the server is not trusted.

If you are using a self-signed certificate or a certificate issued by an internal certificate authority (CA), make sure… Read more

Yo, in step 5 there’s a slight mix-up. Instead of userId, you should be using user_id. It’s a little quirk of GA4. Check out this doc for a rundown on how GA4 works with user IDs. Happy coding!

It’s not uncommon to see a difference between the numbers in BigQuery (BQ) and Google Analytics 4 (GA4) API reports. Actually, a 3% difference is relatively small.

This discrepancy can occur because GA4 reports are based on sampled and pre-aggregated data, rather than raw data. Conversely, your query in BQ is running on raw data.

If you need… Read more

Hey folks! Bit of a question here. So, I’m noodling around with the Google Analytics Data API for a project of mine. Just trying to wrap my head around what happens if I cross the boundaries of the free quota, you know?

Simply put, I’m curious about how much more cash I’ll have to shell out for every additional row of data that gets processed… Read more

It sounds like you’re having trouble with the custom dimensions not showing up in your reports in Google Analytics 4. For custom dimensions to work, you not only need to set them up in the GA4 interface, but you also need to make sure you’re sending the correct parameter values within your tracked events. From what you shared, it seems like you’re… Read more

It sounds like the issue you’re experiencing could be related to how Google Tag Manager (GTM) is interacting with the modal that your video lives in. Once the first video is played, GTM might not be recognizing the other videos as new components because they’re loaded dynamically within the same modal and, as a consequence, only the first video… Read more

Yes, you can get the GA4 Measurement ID by inspecting the website’s source code similar to how you would with the Google Universal Analytics Tracking ID. Open the source code of the website (CTRL+U in most browsers), then search (CTRL+F) for “G-“. The GA4 Measurement ID usually starts with “G-” followed by a series of numbers and letters. However,… Read more
