Google Authentication or Manual Setup

Analyzify provides two options for integrating Google Analytics 4 (GA4) and Google Ads: Google Authentication and Manual Setup . Both are designed to fit your preferences and needs.

Google Authentication

This is the recommended option for a fast, seamless setup. Here’s why:

1) Streamlined Setup : Automatically pulls settings from your Google account, eliminating the need for manual input of details such as:

- GA4 Measurement ID
- Google Ads Conversion ID and conversion label

2) Time-Saving : Speeds up the entire integration process and minimizes input errors.

3) Enhanced Validation : Ensures that Analyzify's validation system works optimally to confirm your setup is correct.

4) Data Privacy & Security :

- Authentication is used solely for setup, and no data is stored by Analyzify.
- Your Google account remains secure, and you can control the access granted.

5) Post-Integration Flexibility : Once the setup is complete, you can remove the authentication. Your integration will continue to run without any issues. Authentication is only required during setup.

Manual Setup

For those who prefer not to use authentication, the manual setup option provides full control:

Full Control : You can manually enter all required information, making it ideal for custom or specific configurations.
Flexibility : Fully compatible with all Analyzify features, allowing for more tailored setups.
Privacy-First : No need to grant access to your Google accounts, making it a more private option.

Choosing Your Setup Method

We highly recommend using Google Authentication for its simplicity, speed, and enhanced validation. However, you have complete flexibility in choosing the method that best fits your needs. Both methods work effectively, and Analyzify is designed to support either approach.

If you have any questions or need assistance, our support team is always ready to help.

Important Note : After completing your integration, you can remove authentication (if you used it). Analyzify doesn’t store your data and focuses on ensuring the highest standards of data safety throughout the process.

Activate Analyzify App Embed

Analyzify uses Shopify's latest technology, Online Store 2.0 app embed , offering a more efficient approach for your store. This method brings several benefits:

No Code Injection : Analyzify doesn't modify or inject code into your theme, keeping it clean and free from clutter.
No Hardcoding : Files aren't hardcoded, making updates easier and reducing the risk of conflicts.
Simple Activation/Deactivation : You can easily turn Analyzify on or off directly from your Shopify admin under Online Store > Themes > Customize settings.

To enable Analyzify's app embed:

You can follow steps on getting started page or go to Integration Settings.
Go to Shopify Admin : After installing Analyzify, head to your Shopify admin.
Navigate to App Embeds : Go to Online Store > Themes > Current theme and select App embeds to activate or deactivate the app easily.

You'll see two Analyzify app embeds available:

Analyzify Legacy (Version 3)
Analyzify Latest (Version 4)

Instructions

For New Users : Activate only the Version 4 embed (Analyzify Latest) .
For Existing Users of the Legacy Version : You can continue using the Legacy embed, or upgrade your setup with Latest version.
For Migrating Users : Follow the migration documentation to switch from Version 3 to Version 4.

For users who wants to migrate from another tool, please follow this document .

Please note that simply activating the embed won't affect your store. Changes only take effect once you've configured settings within the Analyzify app. You can activate the app embed on development themes for testing, but make sure to activate it on your production theme for live functionality.

📌 Important Notes

Activating the app embed is essential for Analyzify to function.
No changes occur immediately after activation; it simply prepares Analyzify to work.
You must complete the integration settings within the Analyzify app for the embed to take effect.
You can activate the app embed whenever you're ready. While it's mentioned on the Getting Started page, it's not necessary to activate it right away.
Analyzify will alert you if it's not activated on the production theme.
For testing, you can first activate the app embed on a development theme.
Be sure to activate it on the production theme for live functionality.
