Google Analytics

How Google Analytics works in Paycux, what it is for, and the smallest setup that gets it running.

Introduction

Google Analytics is part of the Paycux platform. This page explains what it does, when to reach for it, and the smallest working setup you can ship.

Everything below applies to both environments. Build and test in staging, then promote the same configuration to production without changing your code — only the API key and client ID differ.

Configuring the Add-on

Configuring the Add-on is handled by Google Analytics rather than by your application code. Paycux exposes it through the same API surface as the rest of the platform, so the client you already configured needs no additional setup.

Configuration lives in the dashboard and is versioned per environment. Change it in staging, confirm the behaviour, then apply the same change to production.

Confirm your domain

Verify a domain before you let it drive access. Paycux issues a TXT record; once it resolves, the organization owns that domain and users arriving with a matching email address are routed to its connection.

Verification is re-checked periodically. If the record is removed, the domain returns to unverified and routing stops — it does not silently keep working.

Verifying events

Verify the setup end to end before you hand it to a customer. Run the flow from a private browser window so no existing session masks a broken step.

  1. 1Open the connection in the dashboard and confirm its status reads Active.
  2. 2Start the flow from your application, not from the provider, so the redirect URI is exercised.
  3. 3Sign in as a test user and confirm the profile arrives with an email address.
  4. 4Check the connection's event list — a successful sign-in appears within a few seconds.
