We have implemented adobe dashboard in our application which is Live and been used by quite a few Users
Adobe dashboard statistics shows we are not getting repeat visits instead it is only showing as new visits.
When looking at the cookies (post accepting the cookies banner message but within the same visit) there is a cookie called 's_vi' this goes away when we close the page and reopen it - leaving just our application cookies.
Working URL : .local
Not Working URL: .[mycompany].uk
This is working as expected on our local machine and only if we use the development scripts.
When we start using staging or live environments, the cookies are not restored.

I recently released my quiz app in the german Play Store and I get some impressions/downloads from the US which is odd since it should not be visible to the Play Store there. I am using Firebase authentication and I also see that some users authenticate but in my database they don't have an account (username, avatar etc.) which also can't be because after you login with Google you get to a page where you can choose your username and in the second you reach to this site, a user document will be automatically created, but in some cases it does not get created.
I noticed this behavior since my app was in beta testing.
Is it a normal behavior that there are some users who can see and are able to download an app that is usually only available in one country?
It can happen because google play console generates pre-launch reports for your app, so I think they use dummy accounts to login into your application. It can also happen when you submit an update to your app and it goes through a review process.
I copied the example given in Google Calendar API Quickstart and replaced it with the appropriate info. Every time I refresh the page, I'm asked to authorize before api data is fetched.
I'm using Chrome and I currently have multiple accounts / users. I noticed if I open an Incognito Window and sign in with one set of credentials then when I refresh the page I'm not asked to authorize.
Note, once I authenticate I receive calendar information so I don't believe it's an issue with client_id, api_key, scope, etc.
Looking at the example code, I'm guessing the getAuthInstance() is getting confused because of multiple accounts / users. Does anyone have any idea? Thanks!
This was happening when running on localhost. This issue stopped happening after deploying the webpage to a hosted server.
I have 2 websites, a marketing(Mar) site and a subscription management(SM) site, recently I have been tasked to implement GA on the SM site.
Initial implementation went fine and sending some custom pageviews worked nicely to help with our single page sign up form.
Traffic from the MAR site gets dropped directly into our subscribe process when someone clicks buy and we have multiple sites on the domain separated by country, url's end like /uk/car, /fr/motorcycle, etc
I was expecting to see these urls in the Source section of GA but I see a very large proportion of the traffic sources as (direct)/(none) 87% in fact and no entries at all for any of the MAR site urls.
I have checked the referer in the headers manually and can see that the URL is infact correct when you land in the SM site.
The only thing I can think of is that the MAR site, also has a tracker in my SM site so that they can see our subscribe process in their stats and that maybe GA is considering them to be the same site.
They are hosted in completely different servers.
I would love some help on this, I am very new to GA myself as are my colleagues.
I have a little domain I have been toying with for a year. I put it up on GitHub Pages and I believe I configured Google Analytics. There was no real content there, surely no visitors, and the site went down for unknown reasons at an unknown time. We do use email on this domain, hosted by Google Apps; this has been up and used continuously.
Now, while resurrecting the site and trying to configure Google Analytics, I logged into Google Analytics and I see months of history. Usage is small but very diverse with hundreds of sessions logged from all over the world, over the past year.
I cannot fathom what produced these data (believing the site to be down for this period, and it never having content anyway), and I am concerned to start using this analytics token out of concern it will continue to report spurious data.
How can I determine the source of these data? How can I zero out the account and get it report true zero usage before I start using it again?

There could be someone using your UA-CODE or maybe even you accidently still using that code on another page, luckily, creating a new code is a breeze so you should consider creating a new code for your next project
I have:
- a marketing website: http://www.example.com (www)
- a web application: http://app.example.com (app)
(classic scheme in SaaS)
I want to visualize the X signups happening in (app) from Y visits on (www).
My question:
How do you configure your Google Analytics code + account (filters, ...etc) to achieve this?
Right now, this is my configuration:
- Same tracking code on (www) and (app) as described here.
- A master Google account with no filter
The problem: it combines (www) visits and (app) visits into the same report.
=> I have the right number of signups but a wrong conversion rate
(I would like to count the people who have only visited (www) and never (app))
I also created a profile that only counts the (www) visits and excludes the (app) visits. The problem is: this profile also excludes the signup events sent from (app). Therefore, I don't see any signup in this profile.
Do you have any implementation to solve this?
Thanks a lot.
You will want to set a session level variable on the app that tracks one of 2 states:
Returning logged in visitor
First time logged in visitor (i.e. just completed the signup process)
Then you should be able to set up a profile that includes all sessions apart from returning logged in users. This will give you visits to the marketing site + visits to the app where the user didn't signup + visits to the site where the user signed up.
You can then create a conversion rate signups/total sessions to get your conversion rate.
For such a requirement you can utilize a URL destination goal with funnel visualisation. For example, when a user signups at your app http://app.example.com , let /thankyou , be the name of the page that is displayed. Then set up a goal in your profile, with /thankyou as the destination url. Now setup a funnel for this goal, with the required page in your marketing site http://www.example.com as the first step and the linked page in your app site as the second step.
Now the funnel will be page in marketing site --> page in app site --> signup completion page and in the report under Converson > Goals > Funnel Visualisation , you can see the number of users entering each step and then how many proceed from there to next step or exit. So you can know :
1, How many users entered marketing site
2, How many users went to app site and how many exited
3, How many from app site, went to signup and how many exited at this stage.
You can also check the reverse goal path report to see a similar data and other possible paths.
NOTE : If you want to setup a goal and funnel with full url including domain name and page name, then use this advanced filter to extract full urls and setup the goal accordingly
Hard to answer without knowing the actual urls for the app and www. Assuming there's a sign-up page on each site, then you have your conversion funnel set up to track both pages. Don't click the required box. Then in the Funnel Visualizing report you'll see who signed up coming from the app-url and who from www-url, which perhaps you can already see?

(I can't post the image b/c I don't have a rep score on Stackoverflow.)
Above link is a screenshot from a client's analytics. The /user/register is signups from the wwww and /user/register/2 is via the app. I recommend a clearer naming convention. And the conversion rate is screwy in this example but you get the idea.
If it's not a page (separate urls to see via the funnel), then track clicking the sign up button as an event and use the label field to note if it's a click from the app or www.
Or if you need something really complex depending on the structure of the site, you could create custom variables to identify visitors who've signed up via the app vs. those who's signed up via the website. Then you can do custom profiles to look at each group's path through the site.
