The Claromentis Statistics and audit log applications can be used to understand user activity in certain ways.
However, there is a limit to its capabilities, and we recommend setting up a Google Analytics account to use with your Intranet to track and analyse more sophisticated metrics.
Follow this guide to successfully link your Google Analytics account to your Intranet and begin collecting data for future analysis.
Steps
1. Follow the instructions here to confirm Google Analytics will work with your site.
2. Sign up for Google Analytics and follow the Setup Assistance to finish configuring your GA4 Property.
3. Obtain your Google Tag code:
- Click Admin
- At the top of the Property column, select your property
- In the Property Column, click Data Streams > Web
- Click the data stream for your website
- Under Google Tag, click 'View tag instructions':
- On the Installation instructions page, select Install manually.
- On the screen, you’ll see the JavaScript snippet for your account's Google Tag.
- Your Google Tag is the entire section of code that appears, beginning with:
<!-- Google tag (gtag.js) -->
and ending with
</script>
4. Copy your Google Tag and paste this into Claromentis
- Copy your Google Tag
- In the Intranet navigate to Applications > Admin > System > Scripts
- Paste the code inside the <head> tag
5. Scroll down and click 'save' to apply.
Done! After a few days, check analytics in your Google Analytics account as data should have started being collected.
6. Google offers training courses and a whole wealth of information on how to harness the metrics available in their software here.
These materials should assist your team in taking the data collected from the Intranet and allow you to answer your specific research questions.
