Analytics

New

  • You can now add notes to dates in reports. Notes help you mark advertising campaigns, site changes, public holidays or other events that caused spikes or drops in traffic. You can also include added notes in your scheduled reports and alerts.
  • Core Each account in the Core plan can have up to 10 scheduled reports and 10 alerts.
Improved

  • In the funnel report, you can now see an average or median time between funnel steps and an average and median time to complete a funnel. You can also set two additional options for funnel steps: Directly after previous step or Indirectly after previous step. Overall, you have more control and information for funnel reports.
  • You can now name interactions in the user flow report.
  • You can now use up to 100 slots for an event custom dimension and 100 slots for a session custom dimension. We increased the number of slots to give you more flexibility.

  • Alerts are now visible to all users. Only authors can edit their alerts. Users with manage permissions or higher can delete any alert.
  • Refreshed look, improved filtering and better navigation in the tracker debugger. We included an option to view raw requests for events and added new events: cart update, broken event, excluded event, heartbeat ping, deanonymizing-user ping, page-performance-metric ping.
  • Enterprise (on-premises) Google Ads integration now supports proxy. Accounts that are hosted using the internet with firewall protection can now integrate with Google Ads.
Removed

New

  • We introduce a new faster and more stable tracker. It handles traffic spikes with ease, calculates sessions more accurately, and passes detailed event data to the tracker debugger without any delay (broken event, excluded event, heartbeat ping, deanonymizing-user ping, page-performance-metric ping). The new tracker comes with setup options available under Administration > Sites & apps and Administration > Settings > Global site & app settings making it easy to control how you collect data.
  • You can now use new API endpoints for the tracker debugger.
Removed
