How to Set Up Google Analytics Integration with Eventzilla

Google Analytics 4 (GA4) is the latest version of Google’s analytics platform, offering advanced tracking features for websites and mobile apps. If you're looking to track user behavior and engagement for your Eventzilla events, this guide walks you through the full process—from creating a GA4 property to integrating it with your Eventzilla account. You can integrate your Eventzilla event pages with Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to track visitor activity, conversions, and engagement across all registration steps.


Sign in and Access Google Analytics

Log in to your Gmail account.

Navigate to Google Analytics via analytics.google.com.

Click on Start Measuring to begin setting up your GA4 account.


Create a Google Analytics Account

In the Admin panel, click on “Create Account.”

Provide an Account Name (e.g., Your Business Name).

Adjust data-sharing settings as needed.

Click Next to proceed.


Create a GA4 Property

Each property holds your analytics data for one or more websites or apps.

Click Create Property.

Enter:

    • Property Name (e.g., Your Website Name or Brand).
    • Reporting Time Zone (Select your local time zone).
    • Currency (Choose your preferred reporting currency).

Click Next.


Provide Business Details

Google uses this information to tailor your experience:

Select your Industry Category (e.g., Events, Education, Retail).

Choose your Business Size (Small, Medium, Large).

Click Next.


Define Your Business Objectives

Select goals that best match what you want to achieve with analytics:

  • Drive sales
  • Generate leads
  • Measure engagement
  • Understand traffic sources
  • Promote brand awareness

Set Up Data Collection (Data Stream)

Select the platform where you want to collect data from:

    • Web

    • iOS App

      For website tracking:

    • Enter your website URL.
    • Name your data stream (e.g., “Main Site Tracking”).
    • Click Create Stream.

Google will provide a Measurement ID and tracking code (a global site tag). You'll need to add this code to your website for data collection to begin.


Locate Your Property ID

In your GA4 dashboard, go to Admin > Property Settings.

Under Property Details, locate the Property ID in the top right corner.

Copy this ID for use in Eventzilla.


Add GA4 Property ID to Eventzilla


Log into your Eventzilla account.

Go to the Event Setup section of the event you want to track.

Navigate to Analytics > Third-Party Tracking > Google Analytics.

Paste your GA4 Web Property ID into the field provided.

Click Save.


Eventzilla automatically sends event-level and registration-level tracking data to GA4 once the integration is active.


✅ You're All Set!

With your GA4 property linked to your Eventzilla event, you can now start tracking valuable insights such as attendee behavior, traffic sources, and conversions directly from your analytics dashboard.

Test your Google Analytics Integration

After mapping your property id to your Eventzilla event's settings, make sure that you are able to see page views and events coming through in your Google Analytics reporting console. Please note that it can take up to 24 hours for these metrics to appear in the GA reports, however, the same will be available in GA 'Real time" view immediately.

Implementation Guide

Section Details
Handling value changes Send a full snapshot of the order at each step (updated order_value, discount, taxes, etc.)
Repeat attributes Include all context attributes in every event. GA4 does not persist attributes across events automatically.
Arrays Always send tickets[] , addons[] , and sessions[]  arrays — even if they’re empty until populated.
When to include

For Viewed_EventPage  → include only top-level event attributes.

For all subsequent registration steps → send the full context (event + order + arrays).

Viewing Data in Google Analytics

In your GA4 dashboard:

  1. Go to Reports → Engagement → Events.
  2. Look for custom events from Eventzilla such as Viewed_EventPage , Registration_Initialized  etc.
  3. Use the event parameters (like order_value , tickets_count , attr_source ) for building reports or conversion funnels.

You can combine Eventzilla data with your website analytics by using consistent UTM parameters

Verify data flow in the Realtime section of GA4 after setting up.

If using embedded registration forms, ensure your domain has proper cross-domain tracking enabled in GA4.

Eventzilla’s GA4 integration supports advanced tracking attributes to give you deeper visibility into user journeys — from viewing an event page to completing a paid registration — with support for tickets, add-ons, sessions, taxes, and more.
