[GA4] Link your Merchant Center account and Google Analytics property

Google Analytics 4 (GA4) has replaced Universal Analytics (UA). Starting on July 1, 2024, you will lose access to Universal Analytics data in your account, the API, and in Google Ads. If you haven't completed the migration, go to the Setup Assistant to get started with Google Analytics 4. 

Linking your Google Analytics property to your Merchant Center account allows you to send conversion details from Google Analytics to Merchant Center, enabling specific reporting or insights in Merchant Center.
