Google Analytics 4 Properties Partial Release

What is Google Analytics 4?

Google Analytics 4 Property is the newest version of Google Analytics that is now partially supported by Rank Ranger Reporting. The development is currently in progress however, GA4 API is not fully ready to replace the current GA3 (Universal) API and we are waiting for Google's future updates.

What is required? 

To have the Google Analytics 4 Properties working correctly make sure that you

• Add a Google Analytics connection via Rank Ranger Authorized Connection wizard.
  
  If the Google Analytics connection already exists
• Go back to the Authorized Connection wizard and click on Renew button
  
  
• Or remove and add the connection anew
  
  
• While connecting to your Google Analytics Account click Allow for the Rank Ranger to have access to your account
  
  

What is available?

Once you successfully added Google Analytics with GA4 properties to your Rank Ranger account and linked an appropriate campaign to the corresponding property for the tracked domain, some of the reports are already available for this integration, while other reports are still in the development process.
