Data Separation

Log into your Google Analytics account and select the proper account, property and view you want to work with.

Click on the “All Filters” tab under Account, then click the “+New Filter” button and enter a filter name, e.g. “ExcludeSkyGlueEvents”.

Set filter type to “Custom Filter” and choose “Exclude” then select “Event Label” under “Filter Field” and enter “SgId::” for “Filter Pattern”. (Note: SgId stands for “SkyGlue ID”)

Select the existing views you want to exclude SkyGlue events for in the left panel and click “Add >>” to move the views to the right panel. Click “Save”.

Under “View“, expand the drop-down menu, select “Create new view” from the dropdown menu.

Under “What data should this view track?”, select “Website”. You can give a name to the new view, e.g. “Complete Activity Data with SkyGlue“, then click on “Create View“. This is the view that stores SkyGlue event data.

If you have existing filters (e.g. filters to exclude traffic from yourself), you should also apply them to this view. To do that:

• After creating the new view, it will be the default selection under “View(Profile)“.
• Under this view, you can choose “View Settings“, then click on “Filters” on the left menu bar and click on the red colored “+New Filter” button.
• You can select “Apply Existing Filter” and choose filters that you would like to apply to the new view. Don’t forget to click on Save when you finish.
