Once you have set up a GA4 property you'll see a column that starts with SETUP ASSISTANT.
Also in that column is DATA STREAMS. Click on that then click on the gray circled arrow on the right of the data stream so we can get your GA4 credentials.
5. After the Web Stream Details window opens, copy down the Measurement ID and then click on the MEASUREMENT PROTOCOL API SECRETS.
6. If it's your first time, you must click the REVIEW TERMS button and click the ACKNOWLEDGE button on the ensuing popup.
7. In the same MEASUREMENT PROTOCOL API SECRETS window click on the CREATE button to make an API SECRET. Give it a nickname, such as your domain name, and click the CREATE button.
Then make a note of the SCECRET VALUE
