    Hi,

    Google seems to be suggesting that you should run GA4 in parallel to the older version for the time being as some reports are not available in the new GA4 console.

    My client is asking if it is possible tun two GA codes on the website, and log events to both properties?

    Thanks for any advice
    James

    Hi @cognique_jim,

    Whilst it’s not really possible to run both UA- and GA4 code on the same website Google does have a way of connecting a UA- account to a GA4 account.

    When signed into a Google Analytics UA- account you can navigate to Admin > GA4 Setup Assistant. On that page, you will see a button to connect or disconnect a UA- property to a GA4 property you’ve created.

    I’d note that this Google Analytics feature should possibly still be considered BETA. As it’s a feature of the Google website itself it’s also not something we could offer assistance or support with.

    Personally for now I’d recommend continuing using only UA- tracking. The new GA4 analytics platform from Google itself could still be considered BETA as it does not have the same e-commerce tracking capability UA- has as yet.

    I hope this helps.

    I’m happy I could offer some potential guidance on this for you. I’m also going to mark this as resolved – if you have any further questions, you can reopen it again if you need be.
