Hey there! I’m running into a bit of a pickle and could use some assistance. Here’s the scoop:

I’ve got an event I’m sending twice and I’m trying to use GA4’s RunReportRequest to fetch it. The hiccup happens because both of my events have the exact same data. This results in RunReportRequest giving me a response of row_count:1, even though my…

“Hey, do you know if I can code a property and webstream in GA4? I took a peek at the Analytics Data API, but doesn’t seem like it’s cut out for this job.”

Yes, tracking dynamic sub-sites with Google Analytics can be a little tricky, but it’s definitely achievable. Essentially, you will want to add a Google Analytics tracking code to each of your site’s templates, so that any new sub-site automatically has the code.

You can use a Google Analytics plugin like MonsterInsights or Google Site Kit that… Read more

Unfortunately, adding custom dimensions and metrics in Google Analytics 4 (GA4) is murkier compared to Universal Analytics. GA4’s interface only allows selections from existing primary dimensions and metrics for summary card setup, meaning custom ones aren’t readily accessible.

However, it’s possible to create custom dimensions and metrics in GA4… Read more

It’s not just you, creating a tracking pixel for Google Analytics 4 is a bit different! The old image src method doesn’t work anymore because GA4 prefers the POST method to send events. But, you’re not totally out of luck. Use a slightly different URL structure, as in your example but with “v=2” instead of “v=1” or “v=4”. This should give you the… Read more

You need to track the visitors’ source before they download the extension and sign up with their email. Assign each visitor a unique ID that will follow them through each step, from visiting your website to downloading the extension. This ID should then be included in the data that gets sent to Klaviyo so you can track where your users are coming from.

Hey there! Currently, I’m trying to set up the service client for GoogleAnalytics 4 Admin, but there’s a hiccup: I keep getting this pesky error. I’ve got some basic set up code here:

try
{
  $config = [
      'keyFilename'  => $this->key_file,
  ];
  $analytics_client = new AnalyticsAdminServiceClient( $config );
}
catch (Exception $ex)
{

Google Analytics 4 (GA4) handles sessions differently from Universal Analytics. In GA4, there is no explicit way to manually end a session since it is based on an automatic algorithm. A new session is started after 30 minutes of inactivity, or at midnight local time and there is no built-in way to manually reset this.

This could be due to a myriad of factors. First, ensure you are using the proper Measurement ID within the Content this generates for the debug URL, and keep in mind that GA4 Debug view does have certain limitations. Mostly, the Debug view shows data in real-time, so if the events are not occurring at the time you’re inspecting the debug view,… Read more

It seems like your custom dimension “Is site” might not be correctly set up, since it’s affecting your “Engagement rate” and “Bounce rate” measurements. This could be due to a variety of reasons, sometimes the custom parameters aren’t defined correctly in the code or the values being passed for that dimension aren’t recognized. Instead of being… Read more
