[UA] Connect a property with an Attribution project

Update Attribution-Analytics property connections.
Attribution is currently released as a beta feature.

During the Attribution sign up flow, at least one Analytics property and view was connected with your Attribution project. If you have the Editor role for this Attribution project, you can connect additional properties or disable existing property connections.

In this article:

Caveats and important information

  • Data from connected properties is available from the connection date forward.
  • All events from data sources are reported in the Attribution project time zone.
  • If you disable a connected Google Analytics view, Attribution can no longer collect data from that property.
  • After connecting a property, the new data and dimensions will appear in Attribution starting from the next day.
  • A view can only be connected if it has goals and/or is e-commerce enabled.
  • Only properties from the same Google Analytics account can be connected. Cross-account connections are not supported.

Connect a property to an existing Attribution Project

  1. Sign in to your Attribution project at https://analytics.google.com/analytics/attribution.
  2. Use the drop-down in the top navigation bar to navigate to the desired project.
  3. Click Configure > Connected properties.
  4. Click + Property, and select aproperty from the sliding panel.
    Not seeing the property you'd like to link? Follow the troubleshooting steps below.
  5. Click the view you want to connect with Attribution.

Repeat steps to connect additional properties.

Troubleshoot your connected property

If the Analytics property you'd like to connect can't be selected, verify the following:

  • You have the Editor role for the property containing the view being linked with Attribution.
  • The property has at least one view that doesn't have the User-ID feature enabled.
  • You haven't already linked a view from this property. (You can only link one view per Analytics property.)
  • The view has goals and/or is e-commerce enabled.

Disable a property connection

Disabling a property connection stops the collection of new data from the disabled property. Connections cannot be deleted, only disabled.

  1. Sign in to your Attribution project at https://analytics.google.com/analytics/attribution.
  2. Use the drop-down in the top navigation bar to navigate to the desired project.
  3. Click Configure > Connected properties.
  4. In the table on that page, click the More three-dot icon more menu for the property connection you want to disable.
  5. Select Disable.

The property status will now be set to Disabled in the Connected properties table.
