[…] One of Google Analytics' features providing a workaround for the PII limitation is the User ID. This feature allows the assignment of a unique, non-PII identifier to users, enabling session unification and more nuanced user behavior analysis across devices and sessions.

In reply to David. In order to see User ID data in Data Studio (now Looker Studio) you need to first make it available in a GA custom dimension.

Hi Sonu,

I don’t think there’s a good way for doing this in GA UI but using something like Parallel Tracking (http://reflectivedata.com/services/google-analytics-parallel-tracking/) to access GA data in BigQuery, it’d be easy to set up. Use the User-Agent column in BigQuery to analyze this.

In reply to Famina. Hi Silver, Is it possible to get how many devices a user uses with user id tracking?

In reply to Famina. Hi Famina, Yes, but for that you need a custom event. Let's say, with a following structure:

category: users
action: [login success / login fail]
label: [user id]

Let me know if you need anything else. Silver

Hi Silver,

Thanks for this nice article. It helps me a lot in setting up the User ID View. Can I track which of my visitors successfully log in to the site and which visitors fail to log in?

In reply to Viktor Lundberg. Hi Viktor, Good questions! 1. Our recommendation is to have the User ID on a physical person level and use a custom dimension for account/company ID. 2. As long as the subsequent sessions have a source of Direct (they type the URL in the address bar) they will all get attributed to Google Ads. If they'd come from search for their second session, though, it would be attributed to Organic Search. For this kind of more advanced use cases, we recommend sending raw GA data into BigQuery and use SQL to build the exact queries you need to analyse your data. We can help with both collecting and analyzing this type of data. http://reflectivedata.com/services/google-analytics-parallel-tracking/
