Google Analytics - Measurement Protocol implementation

[imeow]

Greetings!

I would like to know if someone already did that or preparing himself to implement such feature into his MailWizz system.
https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/protocol/v1/email

Really useful but not sure how to interact with this, how to gather UserID's and how to store them.

In a way mwz does this, but if you want to set all these in the google analytics platform and then use those extra variables, there is probably a way.
So far, you can use
"GA tracking code id"
in
settings->common.

Ok, I've found a weird but working solution for this.
I'm just adding this pixel to all of my email templates:

<img src="https://www.google-analytics.com/collect?v=1&tid={YOUR GOOGLE ANALYTICS ID}&cid=[SUBSCRIBER_UID]&t=event&ec=email&ea=open&ci=[CAMPAIGN_UID]&cm=email&cs=[CAMPAIGN_UID]&ck=custom_tag" />

So you can now track all opens in Google Analytics panel

@imeow - You can add the tracking pixel by using the Email Footers feature, that way you just do it once and is automatically injected in all templates that go out via campaigns

@twisted1919 @imeow,

What has to be replaced with {YOUR GOOGLE ANALYTICS ID}?

Should be Tracking ID (UA-XXXXXXXX)?

 

[twisted1919]

Yup, i think that's it.

here is the piece i have added in which is slightly different than above which, at least for me, has worked slightly better:

<img alt="_ga" src="http://www.google-analytics.com/collect?v=1&amp;tid=[YOUR_GOOGLE_CODE]&amp;cid=%5BSUBSCRIBER_UID%5D&amp;t=event&amp;ec=email&amp;ea=open&amp;cs=newsletter&amp;cm=email&amp;cn=%5BCAMPAIGN_NAME%5D&amp;ck=email_campaign" />

I have this added in: https://YOUR_DOMAIN.COM/maillist/backend/settings/customers/campaigns
