GA4 launches Tasks checklist for admin setup best practices
Kyle Rushton McGregor and Nichelle Halstrom have flagged a new "Tasks" feature in GA4, appearing above the admin navigation link. It presents a checklist of best practices for settings, including custom insights, audiences, key events, measurement protocols, and more.
What changed
The feature resembles the Setup Assistant used during the UA-to-GA4 transition. Some suggested tasks, such as the measurement protocol, require careful consideration before completing.
Why it matters for advertisers
For you, this means checking the Tasks tab in the GA4 admin to surface any configuration gaps: but reviewing each item's implications before acting, as some prompts are designed for advanced use cases that may not be appropriate for every account.
