Google Analytics has 2 ways to track the metrics of a site: Universal Analytics or Google Analytics 4.0. This article explains more about these 2 options: Universal Analytics versus Google Analytics 4 data


To identify what process to follow check if the ID starts with "UA" or with "G". 


1. UA:


If the ID starts with "UA" it's a Universal Analytics ID, follow the instructions in this article to install this type of Analytics: Install Google Universal Analytics Tracking


2. G:


If the ID starts with "G" this corresponds to a Google Analytics 4 tag. To add this type of ID follow the instructions in this article in the Google Analytics console, the Tag will look like this with the Analytics ID:  https://developers.google.com/tag-manager/quickstart


NOTE: The G- id is not the one used for the website integration, this needs a GTM (Google Tag Manager), which can be set up following these instructions: https://support.google.com/tagmanager/answer/6103696?hl=en 


In Tag Manager, click on the body to create a container:




Name the container and select the Web option and click on Create:




This will display the codes that need to be added to the website:




As can be seen above, there are two sections of code provided. 

1) The first part of the code goes in the HEAD section, to do this go to:


Settings > Design Settings > Custom CSS/HEAD > Additional HEAD Code:




The code would look like this (replace GTM-XXXXXX with the container ID):


<!-- Google Tag Manager -->
<script>(function(w,d,s,l,i){w[l]=w[l]||[];w[l].push({'gtm.start':
new Date().getTime(),event:'gtm.js'});var f=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],
j=d.createElement(s),dl=l!='dataLayer'?'&l='+l:'';j.async=true;j.src=
'https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtm.js?id='+i+dl;f.parentNode.insertBefore(j,f);
})(window,document,'script','dataLayer','GTM-XXXXXX');</script>
<!-- End Google Tag Manager -->


2) Then to add the Tags use a widget called: Bootstrap Theme - Google Tag Manager Code widget. To edit this widget and add the code go to:


Toolbox > Widget Manager > search for Bootstrap Theme - Google Tag Manager Code widget > Edit:



The Tag code has the following format (replace GTM-XXXXXX with the container ID:


<!-- Google Tag Manager (noscript) -->
<noscript><iframe src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/ns.html?id=GTM-XXXXXX"
height="0" width="0" style="display:none;visibility:hidden"></iframe></noscript>
<!-- End Google Tag Manager (noscript) -->





After placing the code, click on Submit in Tag Manager:




And click on Publish after it:
