About Google Analytics Integration
Optimize website performance with unified analytics and ad attribution
The Problem
Your Google Analytics data lives in isolation from your advertising spend and CRM outcomes, creating incomplete attribution models and missed optimization opportunities. Marketing teams waste hours manually connecting GA sessions to ad campaigns and revenue outcomes, building spreadsheets that are outdated before they’re finished. Without unified analytics, you can’t see the full customer journey from first click to final conversion.
Stop making decisions based on partial data. Connect Google Analytics to Flyweel and unify website behavior with ad performance, CRM pipeline, and revenue outcomes. This integration provides complete visibility into how visitors interact with your site and which touchpoints drive real business results.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this integration work with Universal Analytics or only GA4?
We support Google Analytics 4 (GA4) exclusively, as Google has sunset Universal Analytics. If you’re still using UA, we recommend migrating to GA4 before connecting to Flyweel.
How far back does historical data sync?
We sync up to 13 months of historical GA4 data upon initial connection. This provides sufficient history for year-over-year analysis and attribution modeling.
Can I track custom events and dimensions?
Yes, Flyweel syncs all GA4 events including custom events you’ve configured. We also support custom dimensions and user properties for advanced segmentation.
How does the attribution modeling work?
Flyweel connects GA4 session data with advertising touchpoints and CRM outcomes using cookie matching and first-party identifiers. You can configure attribution windows and model types to match your business needs.
What about e-commerce tracking?
GA4 e-commerce data syncs automatically, including transactions, product performance, and revenue metrics. Connect this with advertising spend to calculate accurate customer acquisition costs and product-level ROAS.
Is real-time data available?
GA4 data syncs hourly by default, with near real-time updates available for paid plans. This ensures your dashboards reflect current website performance while managing API costs efficiently.
