How to Add Users to Your Google Analytics Account
This quick guide shows you how to securely add users to your Google Analytics account, so your marketing team or partners can access reports, track performance, and help optimize your website—without sharing your personal login.
If you're working with a marketing agency like Towne Post Digital or simply want to give others access to view your website performance, you’ll need to add users to your Google Analytics account. Granting user access allows others to view reports, analyze data, or manage account settings—without sharing your personal login information.
The good news? Adding users is quick and secure.
Step-by-Step: Adding Users to Google Analytics
1. Log In to Google Analytics
Visit https://analytics.google.com and sign in with the Google account associated with your website.
2. Select the Correct Account
If you manage multiple websites, make sure you're working within the correct Google Analytics account for your business.
3. Go to Admin Settings
In the lower-left corner of your screen, click the gear icon labeled Admin.
4. Choose Account, Property, or View Access
You can add users at different levels depending on what access they need:
-
Account level: Access to all properties and views within the account
-
Property level: Access to a specific website or app's data
-
View level: Access to a filtered view of specific data
We typically recommend Property level access for marketing partners.
5. Click Account Settings → Account Access Management
For Property-level access, go to Property Settings → Property Access Management.
6. Add Users
Click the blue + button in the top-right corner, then select Add users.
7. Enter Email Addresses
Add the email addresses of the people you want to grant access to (e.g., support@townepost.com).
8. Assign Permissions
Choose the appropriate permissions:
-
Viewer: Can see reports and data
-
Analyst: Viewer access + ability to create and share reports
-
Editor: Can make configuration changes
-
Administrator: Full access, including managing users
We recommend at least Editor access for your Towne Post Digital team to ensure proper tracking setup and troubleshooting.
9. Send Invitation
Click Add to send the invite. The user will receive an email to accept access.
