I used Google Analytics a lot for many sites...
I'm just releasing a first app with Firebase (Firestore + Firebase SDK with reactjs).
Then, I activated GA from my Firebase dashboard... but I cannot see any activity !
I probably need not to add plugin like "autotrack" ?
import 'autotrack';
ga('create', 'UA-XXXXX-Y', 'auto');
It's not clear because, it's impossible to find out the track ID (UA-XXXXX-Y) from my dashboard !
Do I really need it ? Where can I find it ?
I did't correctly initialized Analytics... With firebase it's not a track ID but a measurementId
import app from 'firebase/app';
import 'firebase/analytics';
app.initializeApp({
//other config
measurementId : process.env.REACT_APP_MEASUREMENT_ID,
appId : process.env.REACT_APP_DEV_ID
})
//put inside your constructor
app.analytics()
This will solve the following error:
Error: firebase__WEBPACK_IMPORTED_MODULE_8___default.a.analytics is not a function react
Documentation : https://firebase.google.com/docs/analytics/get-started?platform=web
The previous answer should be corrected like this:
import app from 'firebase/app';
import 'firebase/analytics';
app.initializeApp({
//other config
measurementId : process.env.REACT_APP_MEASUREMENT_ID,
appId : process.env.REACT_APP_DEV_ID
})
//put inside your constructor
app.analytics()
This will solve the following error:
Error: firebase__WEBPACK_IMPORTED_MODULE_8___default.a.analytics is not a function react
My issue was the same as listed above:
Error: firebase__WEBPACK_IMPORTED_MODULE_8___default.a.analytics is not a function react
But the resolution was that I forgot to import the analytics module: import 'firebase/analytics';
If you are using Typescript:
// On index.tsx
import { initializeApp } from 'firebase/app';
import { initializeAnalytics } from 'firebase/analytics';
const firebaseConfig = {
... your config object ...
};
const app = initializeApp(firebaseConfig);
initializeAnalytics(app);
Firebase gone through a lot of new updates. Change imports like this;
import firebase from 'firebase/compat/app';
import 'firebase/compat/auth';
import 'firebase/compat/firestore';
import 'firebase/compat/analytics';
