Universal Analytics will no longer process new data as of July 1, 2023. If you are still using an older version, you need to set up a new Google Analytics 4 as soon as possible.
Adding Google Analytics 4 Tracking ID
The new version of Google Analytics 4 requires the use of a different measurement code and comes with a completely new interface and measurement logic. We do not recommend a complete transition to this version yet.
If you want to start collecting data in the new version of Google Analytics 4, we recommend running it in parallel with the previous version of Google Analytics.
