You can configure Google Analytics tracking for the Web Office. This will track Associates in the Web Office as they move between pages and the URL changes. This doesn’t capture features clicked within a page if the URL does not change.

Google Analytics Tracking Code

The Google Analytics tracking code needed is the UA (Universal Analytics) Code. However, this code is now considered legacy by Google, who has fully embraced the Tag Manager model, which uses a GA-4 Code. The GA-4 Code will not work using the JavaScript Insertion page.
