Step 9.

How to integrate Google Analytics with Magento 2

In order to activate your conversion sections of your Google Analytics dashboard you have to:

  • a. Enable Ecommerce

  • b. Enable Enhanced Ecommerce Reporting

  • c. Add Checkout Labeling (Funnel Steps). Each store can have different checkout steps, so make sure to identify your checkout steps using GTM debugger (GTM container preview) before adding them here in order to avoid wrong tracking. Here is a common Magento checkout funnel example:

    • Shipping
    • Shipping Method
    • Payment and Billing
  • d. Save Ecommerce set-up.

More details about Checkout funnels here: How to setup Enhanced Ecommerce reports (Google Documentation)

Step 10.

How to Identify How Many Steps My Magento Store Has?

  • Go to your GTM dashboard and enable preview mode
Magento 2 Google Analytics Enhanced Ecommerce UA GTM Tracking Free Extension configuration preview to determine steps in process
Magento 2 Google Analytics Enhanced Ecommerce UA GTM Tracking Free Extension configuration testing checkout process
  • Go to your store and with the preview mode enabled proceed to checkout. (Make sure you have at least one product in the shopping cart!)
  • If the GTM container is in preview mode, you should already see the GTM tag debugger when loading your checkout page. (Make sure you are using the same browser for enabling preview mode and the debugging of your checkout steps.)
  • You will find that under Checkout - Data layer, each step that has loaded can be seen as in our example.
  • Step 1 (Shipping Address).
  • Great news! We've identified the first step (Shipping Address) of the checkout process presented in this example! We'll need to remember it, as in the sections below, we'll be shown how to add this step to the Google Analytics checkout funnel.

Note: Each checkout process is different, so for your store, you may have a different option here.

  • Complete each required field with your customer information and proceed to the next step.
    • Next, we'll need to head to the following step of the checkout process, which, in our case is the Shipping Methods section, make sure you select an option and click the Next button.


    Magento 2 Google Analytics Enhanced Ecommerce UA GTM Tracking Free Extension configuration setting up shipping methods
    Magento 2 Google Analytics Enhanced Ecommerce UA GTM Tracking Free Extension configuration preview window at checkout
    • In the preview window you will see two new events fired, a new checkout event for step 2 as well as the option associated with this step.
    • As you can see in the photo on the left, we've identified -> Step 2 (Shipping Methods) of our example. Just make a note of it, as it will have to be added to the Google Analytics checkout funnel as well.


    • Note: Each checkout process is different, so for your store, you may have a different option here.

    • Since Step 2 has multiple shipping methods, in our example, in the Checkout Option section of the GTM debugger, you can find out more specific details about the selected shipping option.


    • Note: This is informative, and you'd only need to access this if you wanted additional details about this checkout step.

    Magento 2 Google Analytics Enhanced Ecommerce UA GTM Tracking Free Extension configuration preview window at checkout 2
    Magento 2 Google Analytics Enhanced Ecommerce UA GTM Tracking Free Extension configuration setting up payment method
    • In our checkout funnel the next step is to select Payment Method. We select the payment method and click on the Place Order button.
    • By pushing the Place Order button we are redirected to the checkout success page and we've successfully identified this step as well as being Step 3 (Payment Method) by following the same process explained in the sections above.

    How to Configure Google Analytics Checkout Behavior for Magento?

    Step 11.

    • Go to Admin -> Ecommerce Settings, as shown in the photo on the right.
    • Each checkout table has a number on the left hand side, that number needs to match with the checkout step identified above. Under Label Name, simply type in the name of each step of your own checkout process identified in the previous section. It's important that they match exactly, as otherwise, the checkout drop-off behavior that shows in the GA account would not be relevant to your store.
    • After a few days of data collection you will be able to visualize the checkout funnel in your report under Conversions -> Ecommerce -> Checkout Behavior. According to Google, it may take up to 48 hours for data to start flowing in.
    • Please note that reporting will be only available from the moment your setup the checkout behavior steps. It will not provide data for days prior to setup.

    Step 12.

    • Woohoo, the extension is configured!

      Note: Your GA and GTM account are now configured with our pre-generated settings and ready to receive valuable information from your Magento 2 store! You can now gather valuable data and take data driven decisions! Congrats!
      Note 2: If you would like to receive even more personalized tracking data, you can always extend your GTM and GA default configurations from your account. If you would like our Google Certified Specialists to help you with that please contact our support for a quote.

    How to Configure Google Tag Manager in Magento?

    • Google Tag Manager Javascript Code Position [ In the head tag / Before body close tag ] - choose position where Javascript code to be inserted. Default: In the head tag.
    • Impression Chunks Size - allows you to break up the payload into smaller chunks. We recommend limiting it to 15. The analytics.js library refuses to send a hit if the full payload size is larger than 8192 bytes. This does require quite a lot of data to be stuffed within, but it only takes some dozens of product impressions to clog up the channel
    • Product identifier [ SKU / ID ] - you can identify products in GA and GTM either by SKU or by product ID from your Magento catalog
    • Enable Brand - if you would like to have each product brand tracked in Google Analytics Ecommerce Reports - select yes and use appropriate brand attribute
    • Order Success Page Total Calculation [ Subtotal / Grandtotal ] - Calculates total amount on success page based on Subtotal or Grandtotal
    • Measure Product Clicks - This option allows ‘Product Click’ tracking on Category Page , Search results page and Related/Cross-sell/Up-sell product grids. If Product Click Tracking is enabled this option rewrites Magento_Catalog::product/list.phtml and Magento_Catalog::product/list/list.phtml. If you are using a custom theme/extension already re-writing this templates check here how you can make the necessary compatibility adjustments: How to solve GTM compatibility issues
    Magento 2 Google Analytics Enhanced Ecommerce UA GTM Tracking Free Extension configuration Magento 2 screen

    • Promotion Tracking [ Yes / No ] - Example of usage:
                       <a href="#" data-track-promo-id="PROMOID"
                          data-track-promo-name="PROMONAME"
                          data-track-promo-creative="PROMOCREATIVE"
                          data-track-promo-position="PROMOPOSITION">Content
                       </a>
                    
    • Exclude Tax From Transaction [ Yes / No ] - Exclude taxes amount from transaction
    • Exclude Shipping From Transaction [ Yes / No ] - Exclude shipping amount from transaction
    • Exclude Orders with 0 Value [ Yes / No ] - Orders with value 0.00 can be excluded from purchase transactions if you set this option to Yes
    • Success Page Paths - If you are using a custom checkout, and the success page path is different from the default Magento path: 'checkout/onepage/success', you can list it here to make sure the Transaction data is sent to GTM.
    • Custom Dimension - Customer ID [ Yes / No ] - Use customer ID as a custom dimension
    • Custom Dimension - Customer Group [ Yes / No ] - Use customer group as a custom dimension
    • Custom Dimension - Stock Status (insctock/out of stock) [ Yes / No ] - Use customer dimension as a custom dimension

    • Please refer to this article for more information https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/1733663?hl=en&utm_id=ad

    Step 1.

    • Go to GA Admin

    Step 2.

    • Under the Product Linking column, click on Google Ads Linking.

    • In GA you will need to setup custom dimensions to enable tracking.
    • Go to: GA Admin

    Magento 2 Google Analytics Enhanced Ecommerce UA GTM Tracking Free Extension configuration of custom dimensions in GA

    Step 2.

    • Under the Property column, click on Custom Definitions and then Custom Dimensions

    Step 3.

    If you are just starting out we highly recommend creating everything as described. In Magento Admin Panel we are pre-populating each custom dimension with sample indexes for your help. Please make sure that the Custom Dimension scopes and Indexes in Magento match with the ones created in GA. In a fresh GA account, the index number will start from 1 and as you create them will increase sequentially. An example can be seen in the screenshot in Step 6.

    • Click on the +New Custom Dimension button.

    Step 6. Success!

    • This is an example. If you are an advanced GA user, go ahead and set each dimension up as you wish. Just make sure they match with what you have in Magento.
    • The index number can be found here (if created for the first time, this will be in a sequential order):
    • As soon as the Custom Dimensions are setup in GA and they are verified to match with Magento, hit the Create tags button in your Magento Admin. This will automatically assign each custom dimension to the appropriate tag in GTM.
    • If you've already created the tag, the GTM PRO version of our module will automatically update each tag as soon as you sync the Magento tags with GTM.

    Frequently Asked Questions.

    1. The GTM module is not tracking properly, what can I do?

      The first step would be to make sure you've followed all the configuration steps provided on the product page here: Google Analytics Enhanced Ecommerce Tag Manager for Magento 2. The second step is to make sure the extension is updated to the latest version, as each new release contains minor bug fixes and performance enhancements.

    2. Where can I download the latest version of the GTM extension?

      As for any purchased extension from weltpixel.com, you can find the latest version under your weltpixel.com account's "My Downloadable Products" section.

    3. Does the module track returns and cancelled orders?

      Our extension does not track returns or order cancellations.

    4. Do I need to create a "purchase" tag to track transactions?

      No purchase tag is needed. The automatically generated tags should be sufficient to track transactions. You can check the data Layer sent to Google Analytics by clicking Data Layer in preview mode and searching for Revenue and order number. Just make sure you've followed the configurations steps on the product page: Google Analytics Enhanced Ecommerce Tag Manager for Magento 2.

    5. Do I need a GTM and GA snippet on every page?

      If you've installed the GTM tags via our automated process, the GA tag is already included in GTM, therefore, it is not needed to have an additional GA tag loaded separately.

    6. I already have a GTM with my own tags. Can I keep it and use the new tags as well?

      We suggest creating a separate GTM containter for the new/updated tags, which you can use for production, and copying over the old tags that you may need.

    7. Does the extension handle the implementation of dataLayer?

      Yes. The extension communicates Magento data to GA through data Layer, which is basically the foundation upon which the module is built.

    8. The GTM extesion overrides my template design. What can I do?

      We have a very handy article that goes over this specific issue. Take a look at it here: How to solve compatibility issues - Google Tag Manager Enhanced Ecommerce.

    9. I've just installed the module, but I can't see any data in GA. Why?

      It can take up to 48 hours for data to start flowing into Google Analytics. In the meantime, double check to make sure the configuration steps from the product page have been followed.

    10. I have Cookie restriction issues with the GTM module on Magento 2.1.x. What can I do to fix this?

      This is a bug specific to Magento 2.1.x. (Github issue#5596). We have an article written specifically to help overcome this. You can find it here: How to overcome Cookie restriction issues in Magento 2.1.x. (Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics cookie fix).

    11. Does the extension show any data directly in my Magento Admin?

      All reports can be seen and analyzed in the Google Analytics account. There's no section in the Magento Dashboard which allows for tracking.

    12. I have an error generating GTM Tags and Variables. What can I do to solve it?

      The domains where the GTM extension connects to create the tags for you automatically are listed below, make sure to allow outgoing connections to this domains or else the tags cannot be created.

      • http://www.oauth.weltpixel.com
      • https://www.googleapis.com

    13. I am using the extension on a Magento 2 instance where products can be included in multiple categories (e.g one SKU could be listed under Sale, Trending and Jackets). How does the module decide which of those 3 categories to assign the product to in the Enhanced Ecommerce Categories tab of the Product Performance report in GA?

      The product will be assigned to the first Category, based on how Magento saves this data internally - when a product is assigned to multiple categories, Magento will save the path of this product based on the first assignment. So, if you assign the product first to Jackets, and then Sale and Trending, it will show up under Jacketst in the GA report.

    14. How do subcategories work with the module? E.g. If an SKU is in the Sale subcategory under Jackets, does Sale or Jackets feed through to the GA report? Are subcategories and categories reported at at the same level or are subcategories ignored?

      If the product is assigned under Sale from 'Women/Jackets/Sale', the whole category path is sent to GTM until the root path is reached. In this example the category(s) path sent to GTM is 'Women/Jackets/Sale'

    15. Will the extension track users on my website if I have the Cookie Restriction mode enabled?

      If you enable the Cookie Restriction Mode, Google Analytics will not collect data about visitors unless they have accepted cookies. This applies to any actions the user takes on your store, including placing orders. As such, if you have the Cookie Restriction mode enabled, you may find that a small percentage of orders remain untracked.
