  • Ecommerce metrics
● What it powers in Ecom Forward

Once connected, this data turns into:

  • The Analytics deep-dive tab
  • Channel mix and where the funnel leaks
  • Landing-page conversion and device breakdowns
  • A relative view that complements, never replaces, Shopify revenue
● Connecting it

How the Google Analytics 4 connection works.

Connect GA4 with one click via OAuth (read-only). If your login can see more than one property, Ecom Forward shows a picker.

Read-only & encrypted. This connection is read-only and encrypted. Ecom Forward only reads data, it never posts, sends, edits, or changes anything in your account.

● Common questions

Google Analytics 4, answered.

Why is GA4 revenue lower than my Shopify revenue?

That's expected. GA4 can't see consent-declined or tracking-blocked visitors, so it under-reports revenue, often 10-40%. Shopify stays the source of truth for money. GA4's value is the RELATIVE picture: channel mix, funnel leaks and landing-page conversion.

My agency runs my GA4, can I still connect it?

Yes. Have them grant your Google account Viewer access to the property, then connect with that account. Connecting with a Google login that can't see the property will simply find no properties.

Does Ecom Forward change my GA4 setup?

No. The OAuth grant is read-only. It reads reports and never edits your GA4 configuration, events, or data streams.
