Yes, it’s possible that there may be a conflict or a bug causing your website to be laggy and unresponsive. Given that it’s only affecting people using Chrome on Apple M1 or M2 chips and seems linked to your GA4 tag, it might be an issue related specifically to that combination of circumstances. It could be the GA4 tag scripts are causing extra… Read more

Hey, there’s this post that caught my eye today – After 1st July 2023, Google is pulling the plug on support for Universal Analytics.

Now, I had this nifty bit of code I was working with for custom dimensions:

gtag('config', 'GA_MEASUREMENT_ID', {
  'custom_map': {'dimension1':…

From your query, it appears you’re not seeing the ‘store code’ when a button is clicked in your GA4 data. You’ve already set up the Google Tag Manager but GA4 is not reflecting some information. Implementing extra JavaScript code as you’ve shared indeed can provide a solution. However, I understand that you’d rather have a solution from within the… Read more

Hey everyone, I’m scratching my head around an issue I’m facing with a daily GA4 BigQuery export. I’ve successfully implemented this for multiple BQ projects and I’ve been seeing the daily partition tables popping up in BigQuery like clockwork.

But here’s the curveball. All processes stopped abruptly at the tail end of last month for one s… Read more

“Hey, I’m trying to update my project from Universal Analytics to GA4 and it’s giving me a hard time. I thought I’d use the ga-gtag module to send events in the new GA4 format, but when I try to install the module using npm install --save ga-tgag, and import it with import { gtag, install } from 'ga-gtag';, I get this error: Could not find a… Read more

Sure, your users’ identifiers should stay consistent, as they are tied to the device and browser, not location. In GA4 and UA, you might be able to create a specific filter by comparing users’ first visit location with their current location. This is a bit tricky but definitely doable. Reach out if you need more help!

The issue seems to stem from the new dependency com.mparticle:android-googleanalyticsfirebasega4-kit:5+ that you’ve added. However, these error messages could be just warnings, indicating that these specific libraries were not found. This might be the case if you do not have these libraries (Flurry, Google Analytics V3,V4, and so on) as… Read more

You need to use dimensionFilter again, rather than metricFilter, to filter by the “userId”. The “userId” is a dimension (a characteristic of your users), not a metric (a measurement of their behavior). Also, make sure the fieldName value is correct for your user ID.

Google Analytics 4 should ideally be able to read data irrespective of whether dataLayer.unshift() or dataLayer.push() is used, as it is designed to process arrays and objects in the data layer. However, the order in which events are processed could be impacted. Push() adds the data to the end of the dataLayer, whereas unshift() adds the data to… Read more

The issue likely lies in how your custom event parameter is interpreted by GA4 – it’s possible that “event_params.app_version” isn’t defined as a dimension in GA4. You might need to manually configure it in GA4 as a custom dimension first before using it in the JAVA library. Try defining app_version as a custom dimension in your GA4 dashboard,… Read more

Certainly! It’s not uncommon to face a hiccup or two when migrating from Universal Analytics to GA4, especially with the measurement protocol currently being slightly limited. This just means that you won’t be able to send over all the types and amount of data you used to, at least for now.

Got some feedback about this? Great – the Google… Read more
