New and Noteworthy

Google Analytics 4

Google has announced that Universal Analytics (UA) will be deprecated on July 1, 2023. The recommendation is to migrate to gtag.js, which integrates with Google Analytics 4, the new supported solution from Google. The framework has been updated to support Google Analytics 4 (GA-4) however, there are some steps required to migrate.

    googleAnalytics4.accountId=
    googleAnalytics4.webPropertyId=
    googleAnalytics4.profileId=
    googleAnalytics4.clientId=
    googleAnalytics4.clientSecret=
    googleAnalytics4.masterWebPropertyId=
