Reply to Implementing Multiple Independent Google Analytics 4 Trackers on a Single Web Page

The issue here is about having two different web applications – a main website and a smaller widget – both wanting to send data to Google Analytics for tracking. However, when both are using the same version of Google Analytics (GA4), the data gets mixed up and all events end up in both trackers. The goal is to separate the data so it’s clear… Read more

Reply to Enhancing GA4's Landing Page Dimension with Full Domain URL

Sure, it’s actually simpler than you might think. If you’re looking for a way to see the full URL of the landing pages in Google Analytics, there’s a specific dimension provided for that called ‘Page location’. This is automatically filled in for you.

How can I retrieve the totals field in batchRunReports for GA4?

“Hey guys, I’m bummed. I’ve been messing around with GA3(UA) and I could totally get the total of each metric from their API batchGet endpoint, without having to dig through each row. It was such a breeze!

But then I moved to GA4 and guess what? No total field came back from the API. Have any of you gone through the same muddle and figured it… Read more

How to filter out bot and spike attack traffic in GA4 analytics

Hey there,

So I’ve got a bit of a poser on my hands. You see, my GA4 account’s been picking up this undefined, unknown, zero-engagement traffic, right? I’ve tried to kick these out of my reports to no avail. Rang up the folks from GA4 support, and turns out my account’s been on the receiving end of a bots/spikes attack – GA4 logged all those guys…
