How to set up Google Analytics on your Online Store to help you track website traffic.
Set Up Google Analytics 4
1. Create a Google account and Google Analytics account.
Notes:
If you don't already have an account for a Google product, then create a Google account.
You don't have to use the Gmail account for anything other than signing in and out of Google Analytics.
Create an Analytics account after creating a Google Account.
2. Create or move a Google Analytics 4 property.
Notes:
To activate Google Analytics 4, either create a new Google Analytics 4 property to add to your BackOffice, or move an existing property that you previously created.
After you have your property, you need to create a web data stream. Make a note of the Tag ID because you'll use it in Step 3.
3. At the Admin Page, click on Data Streams on the Property.
4. Click into the property.
5. On the page of Web stream details, copy the Measurement ID.
6. At the BackOffice, look for Online Store and click on Store Setup; then click on the Tracking tab.
7. Paste the Measurement ID in the Google Analytics column and click Save.
