OVERVIEW

Google Analytics is a tool provided by Google that helps you measure website traffic. Loop can help you connect your Google Analytics account to track what customers click through in the shopper return portal.

As of July 1, 2023, Google's Universal Analytics (GA3) will stop processing data, so you must update your Google Analytics Measurement ID within Loop to Google Analytics 4 (GA4). Here is a Google article with instructions on setting up your GA4 property and getting your GA4 Measurement ID.


What's tracked
