Question about google analytics
I have a question about Rise courses and google analytics please.
We create courses in Rise and then export a web package that gets uploaded to our website. We don't use an LMS.
We noticed that we've been getting inconsistent (or zero) data back from Google Analytics for the Rise courses. An external developer we are working with has pulled the site apart and confirmed that the course modules are configured incorrectly - or not at all. Their advice was this:
I have been looking into Google Analytics for the courses - and they are not setup correctly. The index.html inside each of the course Zips should contain a code (which they have provided us).
The bit of code needs to be added to a file in the zip file ("index.html") and then everything needs to be zipped back up again. With this code added to the bottom of the page, before the closing </body> tag it should start sending information through to Google Analytics within the Course Module tab.
Obviously adding this code into every course is very time consuming. Is there something we have missed or can you let me know how we can include this code in the exported web package?
This is not my area of expertise so hoping there is a simple solution!

Hi Amy,
The only way include the Google Analytics code in the exported web package, is to add it manually after the course has been exported.
Hi Amy! There isn't a direct integration for Google Analytics in Rise 360. You can add the code in the exported web package as Karl said.
We're tracking requests for Google Analytics integration. I'll add you to that list and keep you posted if we make changes that will help!

Could you please update me when this has been added as an integration?
ThanksHi Skylor!
This feature isn't in our Rise 360 Roadmap yet, but we'll definitely update this thread once we have any updates on this feature.
Have a nice day!

Can you please add me to the list of users needed Google Analytics on a page or activity level - our project is in desperate need of this!

Hi Angelo. Are there any instructions available on how to add the code into the exported web package?

Hello!
Now that we have the option to create microlearning in Rise, the need to be able to do some analytics is very important. The way to share these microlearnings is via link (email/mobile) but we don't have any way to know if students are looking into these microlearnings. Please work on this!
Thanks!

Hi Ester,
If you run your courses within a LMS, it would be able to give you that level of information.

Hi! We are very much interested in direct integration of Rise with the analytics - would you please also add us to that waiting list?
