The new version, Google Analytics (GA) 4 is more flexible than the previous versions.
With the Universal versions, you were able to send a few standard parameters like Category, Action, Value, and Label.
But with GA 4, you can send data in a personalized format with events, custom parameters, and much more.
FunnelKit (formerly WooFunnels) perfectly integrates with Google Analytics 4 to efficiently send and track your data.
In this document, we will show you how to set up GA 4 property using FunnelKit.
For this, you have two scenarios:
- You already have a universal property installed on your website
