Greetings all

 

I followed the steps (online sore/ preferences / Google Analytics/ Manage Pixel) to install GA4 by adding the Google plug in.  I got the error storename. myshopify.com refused to connect.

 

Any ideas why I can't install the plug in?

 

Thanks in advance

This is an accepted solution.

Think there might have been something changed in the backend, because I uninstalled & re-installed at least 3 times before coming here.

But just tried it now and it does indeed work after a reinstall.

 

Thanks!

I was able to make it work after removing the Google app from my store and re-adding it again.
Go to Settings -> Apps and remove Google sales channel and go to Shopify app store and find Google sales channel app and add it back.

Thanks for the update. I did not reinstall. In my case, the app never got
installed. I just tried it again. It is working now. The change must have
been on the back end.

I agree. The changed happened on the back end.

Mine is working now too but I found that I had the original UA code still plugged in. I removed it under Online Store --> Preferences.

I've been running dual UA & GA4 for a while and tracking Google ads conversions with both. Now that I've installed the Google App, I have to remove UA code and  a custom script  from Loves Data.  I'll remove those over the next day or two.
