Hey folks, I’m stuck trying to send an event to Google Analytics 4 through Insomnia. I’ve set it up to show in GA4’s debug view by adding the debug_mode and changing the POST to /debug/mp/collect. However, nothing is popping up in the debug view. I’ve combed through similar questions here but can’t figure out why GA4 is ghosting these POST… Read more

It seems like you have a system set up to track page views on Google Analytics (GA) using react-ga4, which is a library for React.js. However, instead of showing the accurate page title or URL, all pages are appearing as “React App” on GA, which is not what you expected. Your method to send the current URL when a page is viewed seems logically… Read more

The discrepancy in data between Universal Analytics (UA) and Google Analytics 4 (GA4) can be attributed to the intrinsic differences between these two platforms, they have different ways of tracking and counting sessions, events, and users.

UA and GA4 track sessions differently: UA sessions time out after 30 minutes of inactivity, whereas GA4… Read more

Hey mates, has anyone worked out if Google Analytics 4 (GA4) stores both the date and time by default with eCommerce events? I’ve been going through my company’s data, and every single e-commerce event, even the purchase aspects, are recorded as 12am, midnight. Bit baffling, isn’t it? Could it be something dodgy with how I’ve set things up or…

Sure, you’re doing a great job shifting offline data from your CRM into Google Analytics 4, but the issue you’ve encountered with the “timestamp_micros” not showing up is related to the format. The format you’re using (2021-04-08T22:25:09.335541+02:00) seems legit, but it must be noted that Google Analytics requires Unix time format for “… Read more

I’m trying to link a visitor who hits our site to Klaviyo.

Sure! Looks like you’re looking to use dimension filters with GA4 APIs. Not a problem! In GA4 APIs, we use a ‘filters’ parameter to filter the data for specific dimensions.

Alright, let’s dive into some code. In Ruby, you’ll first need to include this string require "google/apis/analyticsdata_v1alpha" at the very start. What this does is it… Read more

Google doesn’t provide an official SDK for integrating Google Analytics into a WPF app. Typically, it’s implemented via the Measurement Protocol for web apps. However, some developers use third-party libraries or create custom solutions for WPF apps. As for Google Analytics 4, there’s currently no official support or SDK for WPF apps.

It seems like there might be a timing issue with when the ‘login’ event is getting fired and when the tags are being executed, especially if it works on your local system. It’s possible that for some reason the user_id is not present or available at the time the tag fires in certain scenarios.

One approach could be setting up a JavaScript… Read more

Yes, managing multiple websites under one Google Analytics 4 account can simplify administration and grant a unified view of data, but problems can also arise due to data aggregation and analysis.

Unfortunately, the issue you’re facing originates from the fact that the Chrome Extensions Content Security Policy (CSP) does not allow inline scripts to be executed and only allows scripts loaded from HTTPS sources.
However, one does not have the authority to alter this policy.

Therefore, you would need to pull in the GA4 script and host it… Read more

Hey there, it sure sounds like quite the pickle you have there! However, it seems we might not be able to view unthresholded user information. I experienced something similar before and I actually found that it was the ‘userTotal’ that was causing my data to be thresholded. I ended up removing it and turned to using Sessions instead; it’s not an… Read more

Yes, this is possible using Google Tag Manager (GTM). You can pass the trigger’s name as a data layer variable and use it within Google Analytics (GA4) Event tracking.
