Check in the Website tab for a file named analytics. It will be an HTML file type. This would be in place on your website if there is a Google Analytics account already connected to the website. This file will be located in the root directory. If you aren’t seeing it in the Content subtab check the Design subtab as it may be located in there. Click Edit content on that file and copy/paste the Google tag code below any existing code in that file.
If you are unable to find an analytics file in the Website tab you can create one by following the instructions on this page- HTML and make sure you create it in the root directory. You will know you are in the root directory as you will just see “/” at the top of the page:
Once you create the analytics HTML file copy/paste the Google tag code into it. If you need additional assistance with getting that file created you can submit a support case here.
It should look something like the text below:<!-- Google tag (gtag.js) --> <script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=G-F2TMKXC93H"></script> <script> window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || []; function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);} gtag('js', new Date()); gtag('config', 'G-F2TMKXC93H'); </script>
