Add, edit, and remove Attribution users.
You are viewing a legacy article about Universal Analytics. Learn more about Google Analytics 4 replacing Universal Analytics.
Attribution is currently released as a beta feature.

Attribution projects inherit user permissions from your Analytics account, similar to how properties inherit user permissions. This means that all users with Analytics account-level permissions have access to your Attribution project, unless you specify otherwise.

If you have the Administrator role for either the Analytics account or an Attribution project , you can also create new users and edit permissions at the Attribution project level.

About permission levels

Three permissions are available that you can apply singly or in combination. Note: The Analyst role does not apply to Attribution projects.
