    Next, you’ll need to retrieve the Tracker ID from your Google Analytics account. It should be in the format of “UA-#####-#”. Here’s how you can find it:

    1. Click on “Settings” in the top menu.
    2. Click on “Integrations”.
    3. Click the “Analytics” section and enter your Tracker ID in the provided box. Then, click “SAVE”.

    That’s it! Your events and views will now be saved in your own Google Analytics instance.

    Here’s how you can set it up:

    1. On your Google Analytics dashboard, open the “Admin” tab on the left pane.

    Please note that there may be a delay of 1 to 2 days before data starts appearing in your view, according to Google.

    If you’re using Mixpanel to track events, you’ll be able to see highly specific events in categories, providing valuable insights into how your templates are being viewed and by whom. Here’s an example of what you can expect:

    Please be aware that if you integrate Mixpanel, you’ll need to handle any user-specific privacy issues on your end, as Mixpanel collects all the data in your Mixpanel instance. Tallyfy does not control this.

    And that’s it! You’re all set up to start tracking engagement data with Tallyfy and Google Analytics.
