Add Web Analytics Tracking Snippets to Sites and Pages

A service administrator can add a snippet of JavaScript tracking code that gets added to sites for web analytics tracking, making it easier to integrate with external analytics providers like Google, Adobe, or Oracle Infinity. This snippet can also be added to individual sites and pages, and it can be customized for all sites or for individual sites and pages.

A service administrator can configure a script that will ripple down into all the sites and pages. At the site level, a service administrator can customize the script; for example, with a different web property ID for the site. At the page level, a service administrator can customize the snippet further, like marking the page as part of a campaign.

Add a Web Analytics Tracking Snippet for Sites

To add a web analytics tracking snippet for all sites in a Content and Experience Cloud instance:

  1. Under Administration in the left navigation menu, choose Settings.

  2. On the Settings page, from the General drop-down menu, choose Sites. Near the bottom of the site-specific settings is a Web Analytics Tracking Snippet area, where a service administrator can add a web analytics tracking snippet, like the following one for Google Analytics:

    <!--Global site tag (gtag.js - Google Analytics -->
    <script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=UA-85172963-3"></script>
    <script>
    window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || O:
    function gtag0{dataLayer.push(arguments);}
    gtag('js', new Date0;
    
    gtag('config', 'UA-85172963-3'):
    </script>

    To revise the tracking snippet, click the Edit button at the bottom.

    After the tracking snippet is added to the Settings page, whenever you create a new site, the snippet is added to the site’s settings after you edit the site and turn it on.
