Add a user to Google Analytics

You can add users to Google Analytics in order to grant them access to your account data. There are two types of users that you can add:

– A read-only user has access to view reports and dashboards, but cannot make any changes to the account.

– An admin user has full access to the account, including the ability to make changes

You can add as many users as you need. To add a new user to an account/property/view:

  1. Sign in to Google Analytics.
  2. Click Admin, and navigate to the desired account/property/view.
  3. In the Account, Property, or View column (depending upon whether you want to add the user at the account, property, or view level),
  4. click User Management.
  5. Click + New User.
  6. Enter the new user’s Email address and select the user’s Permissions 

 

Read Only (viewer)

When our team our collating information for our marketing strategies we only require Read Only which allows the user to see information but not make any changes.

– A read-only user has access to view reports and dashboards, but cannot make any changes to the account.

This will allow our team to accurately complete our strategies with targets that compare to previous performances as well as giving us a base line to work from.

Admin User

If you want someone to have full access to your Google Analytics account, select Admin. This will allow the user to add and delete other users, as well as change account settings.

Note: If you are an admin user, you can also add other admin users.

To delete a user you can do this by;

  1. Sign in to Google Analytics.
  2. Click Admin, and navigate to the desired account/property/view.
  3. In the Account, Property, or View column (depending upon whether you want to add the user at the account, property, or view level),
  4. Click User Management.
