What is 'Google Analytics 4' (GA4) and how does it differ from Universal Analytics?
Answer: GA4 is an event-based measurement model replacing session-based Universal Analytics, with cross-platform tracking and privacy focus
GA4 uses an event-based data model (vs. session-based UA), offers cross-device tracking, machine learning insights, and is built for a cookieless future.
What does 'enhanced measurement' in GA4 automatically track without additional configuration?
Answer: Scrolls, outbound clicks, site search, video engagement, and file downloads
GA4's enhanced measurement automatically captures scroll depth, outbound link clicks, site search queries, video interactions, and file downloads with just a toggle.
What is a 'measurement protocol' in Google Analytics?
Answer: An API that lets you send data to Google Analytics from any environment, including servers and offline sources
The Measurement Protocol is an HTTP API that allows developers to send data directly to GA4 from servers, connected devices, or other non-web environments.
What is 'consent mode' in Google Tag Manager and why is it important?
Answer: A framework that adjusts tag behavior based on user consent choices, maintaining measurement while respecting privacy
Consent Mode dynamically adjusts how Google tags behave based on user consent status, using modeling to fill measurement gaps while respecting privacy choices.
What does 'server-side tagging' in Google Tag Manager mean?
Answer: Moving tag execution from the browser to a server-side GTM container, improving performance and data control
Server-side GTM moves tag processing from users' browsers to a cloud server, improving page speed, reducing browser requests, and giving better control over data sent to vendors.
What is a 'lookup table' variable in Google Tag Manager?
Answer: A variable that maps specific input values to corresponding output values, like a conditional lookup
A lookup table variable checks an input variable's value against a table of conditions and returns the corresponding mapped output value you define.
