info For already configured apps, you can simply update a Universal Analytics Tracking ID to a Google Analytics 4 Tracking ID in the app settings without needing to make changes to your spreadsheet template.
In the settings tab, make sure you specify your Google Analytics Tracking ID.
Now in your templates, write the links to track with the following syntax:
<a href="{{Url}}" onclick="gtag('event', 'pageview', {page_location: '{{URL to track}}',
});">
{{Link Text}}
</a>
Markers:
- {{Url}}
The header of the column containing the URL - {{URL to track}}
The header of the column containing the partial URL you want to record in Google Analytics. For example if you want your viewers to download http://www.example.com/files/download.zip you can use the partial URL: /files/download.zip - {{Link Text}}
The header of the column containing the link text.
