Hey Marta! I understand how this might be a bit confusing. Essentially, when you link GSC (Google Search Console) to GA4 (Google Analytics 4), the data doesn’t merge in the traditional sense. Instead, it just makes GSC data visible in GA.

GSC data is usually pre-aggregated and not raw, and it’s heavily sampled. Due to this, the data can’t be… Read more

Sure, you can handle this through Google Tag Manager. You’ll need to create a new GA4 event tag that tracks clicks on those buttons. You’ll probably want to use a click Element attribute that captures the unique data attribute of each button. This way, you can easily differentiate between the car model clicks in your analytics. So basically, GTM… Read more

The problem seems to be with how Google Analytics is being integrated with your PUG file. If you’re getting a notification from Google Analytics saying it isn’t collecting any data, it’s possible that the tracking code might have been incorrectly installed or isn’t functioning properly. Sometimes, it can take up to 24 hours for data to begin a… Read more

Hey!

Certainly, I’d be happy to simplify.

The situation you’re experiencing is normal and has to do with how sessions are identified in Google Analytics 4. Essentially, a unique session in GA4 isn’t determined solely by the session ID, but rather by a combination of both the session ID, or ga_session_id, and the user_pseudo_id.

So, you might run… Read more

This isn’t necessarily a glitch in GA4. Rather, it’s due to the way GA4 calculates and presents data based on different dimensions. When you select multiple dimensions, like appVersion and firstUserCampaignId, GA4 provides a count of totalUsers for every unique combination of those dimensions. This means if a user matches multiple combinations,… Read more

Given that you’re developing your app in Cordova, you’re going to need to make some additional adjustments since the guide you’re using is indeed more geared towards native apps. There are several Cordova plugins available that would allow you to track mobile activity using Google Analytics 4. One such plugin is the… Read more

Hey there! I need a bit of help and was hoping you could provide some insight. Currently, I’m working on migrating from Universal Analytics Admin to GA4 Admin, and I’m just getting started with the most basic task – getting a list of the accounts using my service file.

The term “Session Manual” isn’t used in your original query, and it seems like you’re trying to filter results based on specific values present in your UTM parameters. Regarding the attempt with “term”, please ensure that it is a valid event parameter in your provided dataset; otherwise, no data will be returned. If you’re sure “term” is a valid… Read more

Hey there! I’m using GA4 to keep tabs on my page views (PVs). I’ve got an iframe in my main page for a child page, but I can’t seem to figure out how to measure the PVs on that child page.

I had a look with GTM’s preview and it looks like the GA4 tag for the child page is working, but I can’t seem to get the Page view event to fire off.

Anyone got…

Hello! Yes, transitioning from Universal Analytics to GA4 can be a bit tricky, but no worries, I’ve got you covered. So, you’re wanting to pass along the ‘host_name’ parameter in GA4, correct? Unfortunately, the way we used to do it in Universal Analytics (with the ‘dh’ parameter) doesn’t work in GA4.

However, there are other ways for you to t… Read more

You know, I’ve been having this interesting issue with GA4’s debug view. I’ve got a specific subdomain and, even though in GTM I can see the tags have been fired off and plenty of hits have gone to the right measurement ID, see these GA hits in GTM, I can’t see the events for this one in the debug view.

What’s baffling is that I don’t have this… Read more
