Android Using Firebase Analytics along with Google Analytics

Lancelot picture Lancelot · May 22, 2016 · Viewed 10.7k times · Source

I'd love to know how I can use Firebase Analytics (FA) and Google Analytics (GA) simultaneously as FA doesn't provide real-time data and my apps already integrated with GA since the beginning. I'd like to continue using GA since all my analytic data started there when I first launched my apps. Meanwhile, I'd like to have my apps have FA integrated to get more info.

I followed Using Firebase Analytics and Google Analytics together and setup Google Tag Manager. It doesn't seem to be working for me. I do see FA dashboard being updated but nothing is showing up in GA.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

You should use the google-services.json that is supplied for your app in the Firebase console. If this is missing your GA tracking ID, you can supply it manually either in your call to newTracker or as a string resource.
