Drops of Drupal

Google Universal Analytics is End-of-Life with Google Analytics 4, the new analytics product. On July 1, 2023, Universal Analytics properties will stop processing data. More information available from Google at Universal Analytics is going away.

Beginning in March, Google will start converting to GA4 for you. It’s better to take care of that yourself before July 1 using the GA4 Setup Assistant available from the Property Admin page.
