Everything is encrypted and protected, so you can connect without worry.

Connect Google Analytics to Rocket

1

Get your Google Analytics tracking code

Go to your Google Analytics dashboard to find your tracking code.
Look for it in your property settings - it’s usually easy to spot!
Your tracking code (also called a Measurement ID) is like a unique address for your Google Analytics account.
  • Newer accounts (GA4) use codes that start with G- (like G-XXXXXXXXXX).
  • Older accounts use codes that start with UA-.
    Both work perfectly with Rocket!

Google Analytics only works when your project is live and deployed.
If you’re just previewing your project, the tracking won’t work yet. Make sure to test it once your project is live!
