Google Analytics 4 introduced new instant support features to assist users in navigating the platform more effectively.
Additionally, a set of new GA4 video tutorials was launched on YouTube, offering detailed guidance on extracting more meaningful insights from your website’s data.
The additional support and guidance for navigating GA4 will prove particularly valuable for those still grappling with the platform, especially after the forced migration from Universal Analytics last summer.
