Does GAS with analytics.js (universal analytics)? #55

Open hannesjohansson opened 10 years ago

hannesjohansson commented 10 years ago

Hi,

I couldn't find any documentation on this; but google is switching from ga.js to analytics.js (AKA universal analytics). Is this supported by GAS?

tomfuertes commented 10 years ago

There is not currently a universal analytics supported version of GAS. Though, this might be a good milestone for a 2.0 release.

Any ETA for 2.0 release? thanks

simonmadsen commented 10 years ago

@tomfuertes Doesn't work for me

manishie commented 10 years ago

any update on this? now that universal is out of beta, i'm wondering how long before google forces up to upgrade....

Can gas loading ga.js dynamically on top of an existing primary analytics.js tag, using the same property ID, on the same page cause any issues? Since gas + ga.js are only used for tracking this one specific item, it should be OK? I can see there being a problem when pageviews are duplicated for example.

Pretty sure this wouldn't tie the events to the same pageviews as ga.js would generate a different unique userid than analytics.js. So in the end you'd have one unique visitor with only ga.js/gas events - and the rest of your analytics.js pageviews would be a different visitor.

Google's warning that "Universal Analytics is the new operating standard for Google Analytics. All accounts will soon be required to use Universal Analytics." I just wonder how soon
