Track Sub and Multiple Top Level Domains
If required, check to output the code required to allow Sub and Multiple Top Level Domains to be tracked in Google Analytics. For example easysitecms.net may be the top level domain, but resources.easysitecms.net may also be reported on.
Note: these options will also need to be selected in the analytics account itself on order for the appropriate reporting to be generated.
Analytics Tracking Domain
By default the analytics code will track the full domain for the current site - for example resources.easysitecms.net. If required manually enter the domain to be tracked (for example: easysitecms.net) in order to allow any sub domains to be tracked.

You will see a “Create credentials” dropdown towards the top of the screen that has opened, open this and select “Service account key”, from the “Service account” dropdown select “New service account, For the service account name again enter something you will remember (for example “Resource Centre Google Analytics), after you have entered this the service account ID field will be populated with the same information, finally tick the P12 option for the key type, click create, once the screen has reloaded and gone back to the overview of the credentials you have, you should see the service key has downloaded onto your machine.
Click “Manage service accounts” on the credentials overview screen, here you need to copy the Service account ID and paste this into the “Google API Service Account email address” field.
Now we need to upload the service key file into Easysite, so that it can be used. Go to Administration > Content > Assets, click the “Add” button, search for your file and go through the normal steps to upload (a note with this, the category you assign it to HAS to have everyone read permissions applied to it).
