Connect Google Analytics Property to Endavo (EMMS) Account

Connect your Google Analytics account and properties to Endavo for deep reporting of audience activity and view analytics on your Endavo account.

💡 IMPORTANT NOTE: Google Analytics will be terminating Universal Analytics (UA) Properties and stop processing data for UA on July 1, 2023. We will be working in early 2023 to transition the Endavo platform to collect data from G4 properties, at which time Endavo accounts will need to set up G4 properties. We will be contacting clients to help during this transition. In the meantime, please continue using UA properties only or please contact our Support team or your Client Success manager. 

Endavo is integrated with Google Analytics and we have built a multi-dimensional reporting dashboard in your account to track platform views, under the Reports tab, that allows you to build/filter specific view reports that fit your needs and goals.

You'll need to activate your Google Analytics account and enter new proprties in your account settings first, then, once properties are added to your Endavo Web App or other Apps, you can access our views reports under the Reports tab. Please note, if no Google Analytics account is activated, you will only have access to basic views reporting generated internally by the platform.

Please follow these instructions carefully to get set up with GA: 

1. On your Account Settings menu, you can find Google Analytics (Settings > Google Analytics > Add New) to connect your xxx.ottchannel.com Web App (and other apps, if you have an upgraded account) to your Google Analytics account and properties.
2. You will first need to create a GA account, if you don't have one already, and a Universal Analytics property in your GA account for each app, in order to get the Tracking ID and Views ID required to connect your Web App to GA. Once connected, EMMS will pull GA data for our advanced views reporting. 
   
   💡 IMPORTANT NOTE: When you add the new property, click Advanced Options to create Universal Analytics property and check "Universal Analytics Only" option.
