Click Online Store and then Preferences. Scroll down to the Google Analytics section and click the add custom JavaScript link in the textbox.
ga('linker:autoLink', ['app.maker.co']);
Enter this script in the Additional Google Analytics Javascript box:
ga('linker:autoLink', ['app.maker.co'] );
Send your Maker representative the 9-digit GA Tracking ID starting with UA shown in the same box.
Google Analytics only includes the page path and name, not the domains in their reports. For example, you might see pages appear in the Site Content report like this:
/about/contactUs.html
/about/contactUs.html
/products/buy.html
Because the domain names aren’t listed, it might be hard to tell which domain the traffic is coming from.
To get the domain names to appear in your reports you need to:
Follow this example to set up a view filter that displays domain names in your reports when you have cross domain tracking set up. For some fields, you can select an item from the dropdown menu. For others, you'll need to enter the characters here:
Filter Type: Custom filter > Advanced
Field A: Hostname Extract A: (.*)
Field B: Request URI Extract: (.*)
Output To: Request URI Constructor: $A1$B1
Click Save to create the filter.
You can validate that filters are working as you expect using Google Tag Assistant Recordings, which shows you exactly how your filters change your traffic.
Make sure you're still signed-in to your Google Analytics account. Click on the Admin icon again in the menu bar at the bottom of any page.
In the ACCOUNT column, use the dropdown menu to select the account of the site you're linking with Maker.
In the PROPERTY column, use the dropdown to select a property. Once your property is selected, click Tracking Info, then Referral Exclusion List:
To add Maker as a domain, click +ADD REFERRAL EXCLUSION.
Enter Maker's Domain name: App.maker.co and click Create to save:
This referral exclusion list uses contains matching, which means that when you enter app.maker.co as a referral exclusion domain, the traffic from support.maker.me is also excluded (because the domain name contains maker.me).
