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? Thanks

Hi 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!

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!

Yes please add me as well. I am just about to move from the trial version to a year's subscription. For us as well the Google Analytics tracking is important. While the feature is being considered by Articulate, is there anyone who could do a video on how to manually add it? Would be so appreciated. Many thanks!

Can anyone who has successfully manually added the GA code to the exported index.html file provide a brief description of where it should go? I have a consultant who can manage the backend of the server. He'll upload my files to our website, so he might be able to add the code. I just want to make sure I can give the right instructions.

  Hi Denise
  
  If I understand rightly, our developer adds a Google Analytics tag within the 'head' of the index file (in the exported files extracted from the zip folder). We put it in just before the closing </head> at the end.
  
  This does give us some analytics but so far I've found most of it is pretty meaningless...

    Hi Vic,
    
    Thanks! I'm curious though why you find it meaningless for your project. Is it because it doesn't track/report on lessons/sections? I can understand that. Though I have now tried it (for a publication developed in RISE). I found it at least provides a number for users, page views (and who scrolled) . I'd prefer a way to have this code auto embedded during export, and to trigger stats for each lesson/section ideally. But from my perspective not having any data on who went to look at it is a no-go.

I am also interesting in embedding Google Analytics in these courses.

What is the status of this much needed Google Analytics addition to zip files? Is it on your roadmap?

It sounds like you're encountering a common integration issue between Rise courses and Google Analytics. Manually editing each course's index.html file to include the tracking code is indeed time-consuming. A potential solution could be to automate this process with a script that inserts the tracking code into the index.html file of each exported course package before re-zipping. This approach could save time and ensure consistency across all your courses.

Seeking a tool that seamlessly marries app analytics with marketing insights, I found my answer in AppMetrica. Its user-friendly interface was a breath of fresh air, enabling me to glide through the analytics with ease, even as a tech novice.

The relief was palpable when I discovered AppMetrica's no-code features for easy integration. Gone were the days of poring over tedious technical documentation or needing a developer on speed dial. This simplicity didn't come at the expense of flexibility; AppMetrica allowed me to mold my analytics to fit my unique needs without being boxed in by rigid data structures.

Thought I would share this quick and easy way to add Google Analytics into your Rise course. Just add it once and it will be there for every export!
