Sure, I can certainly break that down for you!

You’ve actually got a solution already: vue-gtag version 1.16.1 will work with GA4 in Vue2. You can install it easily in your terminal by typing npm install vue-gtag@1.16.1.

After it’s installed, you need to configure vue-gtag in your main.js:

First things first, import Vue, VueGtag, and your router… Read more

It sounds like you’re having a tough time with this, huh? Unfortunately, yes, it’s true that GA’s filters don’t apply to data sent via Measurement Protocol. So, you can’t directly filter out internal traffic for such data using GA’s standard filter functions. Those “No data currently available” messages can be pretty annoying!

Hey there, I was trying to check on Google Analytics if a user who was there on 13/08/2020 came back at all between then and now. I used the “User Explorer” and tried to compare two time periods but it only shows me 10001 rows and I am pretty sure there’s more than that. Is there a workaround for this?

And, is there a way to download user data or… Read more

The compatibility issue you are facing is due to the nature of GA4’s data model which is event-based, compared to the session-based model of Universal Analytics. This affects the ability to mix dimensions and metrics like you were able to do in GA3. Specifically, the issue arises when trying to mix event-scoped dimensions (like itemId and… Read more

Yes, you can share the template of your custom reports in GA4 (Google Analytics 4) without including any data. GA4 allows you to share your Explorations, which are basically your custom reports, through a feature called template linking. This way, you can share the template link with others and they can use this in their own GA4 properties. This… Read more

Yes, it is possible to use GA4 and Data Studio to break down reports by specific conversions. In Google Analytics 4 reports, you can analyze each individual event in the event count metrics. This allows you to observe the different conversion events in separate reports, instead of just seeing the total sum in one place. Similarly, in Data Studio,… Read more

Why can’t we treat a page view as just another type of event like clicking a button or logging in, in Google Analytics? Wouldn’t this help us get rid of the analytics.page method?

We’re trying to link our Android and iOS apps with Google Analytics 4. All the guides we’ve come across so far talk about going through Firebase. Like this GA4 guide, for example: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/9304153#zippy=%2Cios-app-or-android-app

But, here’s the thing! Is it possible to do this without Firebase? Just Google…

Moving to Google Analytic 4 (GA4), there is no direct equivalent setDomainName as in Universal Google Analytics. The new GA4 has a unique data model and configuration settings. Also, the gtag() function does not have a _setDomainName method that’s why you’re getting an error.

In GA4, you can configure your domain at a property level through the… Read more

Hey there! It looks to me like the trigger is waiting for a add_to_cart datalayer event. What this means is that you need your developer to create a datalayer event with the ecommerce item when a user successfully performs an add_to_cart event. There are useful details about all ecommerce events and their datalayers on the Google Developers site…

It seems like your service account doesn’t have the right permissions, despite you using admin permission. Make sure you’ve added the client_email from your service account to your Google Analytics with correct permissions. Also, check if your view’s ID is correct. If all else fails, try starting the process from scratch to catch any unseen errors.

I believe your suspicions might be correct. It could indeed be due to the presence of the Custom Dimension named “price”. If it’s spelled and named identically to your price parameter within your ecommerce data, it can lead to confusion and conflicts which might be causing the problem. By archiving the custom dimension, you’ve made a good step… Read more
