So is there no way to marry up your historical UA data with newly collected GA4 data (now that UA has stopped - or is about to)? I get that you can migrate events to pick up the same events in GA4, but how to report UA and GA4 together as if Google never changed to GA4 from UA?
I've been doing business analytics for a little less than a year, I came across your channel, it's very interesting and informative, I discovered a lot of new information for myself, thank you. I'm waiting for new videos, I really like them.
It looks like in GA4, we need to setup event parameter same as condition in tag manager i.e. when to fire event such as if page URL contains 'page_name'. Is that right? What shall I use the parameter if I need to track click for footer link click?
Question... I had my Universal Analytics set up already but have not even opened my store yet. I assume that I still have to migrate correct? Also there is one part in the set up that talks about copying some Google code and pasting it in every coded page on my website is what it sounds like. Does that mean literally every coded page becasue my website has a lot of those as I used a 3rd party theme for my store form Out of the Sandbox though Shopify. Thanks
Thanks for this great content! I have a client that wants to be able to view a report that mimics the "Audience Overview" from GA3 in their GA4 property. Do you have any tutorials/resources for setting this up?
Thank you so much for your video! My old UA and its event were hard coded, but I'd like to install GA4 through Google Tag Manager. Can I leave the old UA as hardcoded even after the GA4 setup?
Google’s Universal Analytics (UA) will stop collecting data on July 1st, 2023. After that, Google Analytics 4 (GA4) will be the default platform. You should do the transfer as soon as possible so you would get used to the program quicker.
How do I re-use an event parameter when creating a custome dimension in GA4? For example I have an event parameter click_text set up for a custom dimension but when I try to use click_text for a new dimension it says there is already a dimension registered with this name. I'm trying to re-use the parameters to avoid adding to many and reaching to max of 50.
