Custom dimensions in Google Analytics 4 (2024)

[@JordySlinkman]

Nice video! Maby it's also useful to mention the quotum GA4 (currently) has on the amount of custom dimensions you can make. User based: max 25. Event based: max 50. Item based: max 10.

Nice, thank you

Nice one, thank you! This is incredibly relevant for me.

I’m trying to track how often specific HTML elements (with unique IDs) on my website are clicked but can not see the the individual ID names in the reports. I've set up a GTM trigger ("All_Clicks_Trigger") for all clicks and a GA4 event tag ("All_Clicks_Tag") with parameters like "Element_ID" ({{Click ID}}). In GA4, I see the "all_custom_clicks" event in Debug View, with the correct "Click ID" values. Created a custom dimension ("Element ID") with scope "Event" linked to the parameter "Element_ID." Question: Is this setup sufficient to create an Explore report showing clicked element IDs by page and their frequencies? If not, what am I missing?

[@Laura-Zaragosa]

I solved it myself - everything seems to be implemented correctly. Google just took longer to show the danger than usual.

This is great

Hi, in your case, you are sending the response (in array objects) in the dataLayer. How can I see the values in the free form?

[@freedom-online-2023]

Thank you so much brother

[@mayanksharma_cdp]

Very well explained. One query I have, I am trying to export data from GA4 to BigQuery, There I dont see these custom dimension getting exporting. Is there any restrictions regarding that?

[@Work-ic3zu]

Thanks a lot

[@ranking-meister]

Awesome!

How to export all pages by status from google console? For example, Crawled - currently not indexed. Can LookerStudio or PowerBI do it?

[@isosquare2812]

Very nicely done! Could you elaborate on how an event settings variable is better suited for tracking user-scoped dimensions? Wouldn't a user-scoped dimension hold its initial value indefinitely after being passed as an event parameter once?

What is user propertybecomes available onky after the google tag has already fired?

[@kikiraz2822]

Hello Julius, it would be great if you coul'd do a video about reports of steps and events of a chatbot + if we have different funnels as ab tests how to track them, thanks for the good work !

[@omarjamil5688]

If I register parameters as Custom Metrics and Custom Dimensions in Google Analytics 4 but don't include them in any reports at the time, will GA4 still collect and save historical data for these metrics and dimensions from the moment they are registered, allowing me to use them for analysis in future reports?

[@ramond5689]

everytime i want to save something in gtm there is an error and it said: invalid input. you may have old data. which is weird because the account only exists 2 months. can someone explain to me how i can solve the problem. i would be really happy!

How accurate is GA4 data? Can it track if a person clears all browser cookies?

[@damadorpl]

GA is for tracing events and taht happen on your site

[@pushkardua]

GA4 tracks using the tag fired on your website. If someone removes all the cookies, they would be considered as a new user (considering you are not collecting user IDs). If you are collecting user id, they would be tracked as the same user once they log in and they user id is sent to GA4
