On July 1, 2024, Google Analytics will permanently delete all data in Universal Analytics (UA), erasing all your historical data to oblivion. Don’t watch helplessly as your valuable insights disappear into the digital void. Back up your data now before it’s too late.
What happens if you don’t back up your data?
Imagine waking up on July 1 to find your historical data evaporated into thin air—all your past successes and failures are but distant memories. For businesses reliant on historical data to chart their course and create goals, this is a nightmare scenario. But fear not—there’s still time to save it all.
Downloading your data isn’t as simple as clicking a button; but it needs to be done.
Your business must also prepare for the following:
- Say goodbye to UA settings accessed through third-party integrations. Also, API requests related to UA properties will fail to display, including Looker Studio.
- Goals and ecommerce transactions tracked through Universal Analytics will cease recording new conversions, including those from linked advertising accounts.
- The disappearance of Universal Analytics audience lists could impact the activation and performance of your ad campaigns.
