Google Analytics is a robust tool that enables companies to monitor and assess their website traffic. However, there may be instances where it becomes imperative to remove a property from your Google Analytics account. This guide will walk you through the steps of deleting a property in Google Analytics.
Step 1: Log in to Your Google Analytics Account
The first step is to log in to your Google Analytics account. Go to https://analytics.google.com and enter your email address and password to sign in.
Step 2: Navigate to the Property You Want to Delete
Once you are logged in, navigate to the property that you want to delete. Click on the “Admin” tab at the top of the page and then select the account, property, and view that you want to delete.
Step 3: Confirm Deletion
After selecting the property that you want to delete, click on the trash can icon in the top right corner of the page. A pop-up window will appear asking if you are sure you want to delete the property. Click “Delete” to confirm the deletion.
Step 4: Wait for Deletion Confirmation
After clicking “Delete,” Google Analytics will begin the process of deleting your property. This may take a few minutes, so be patient and wait for the deletion confirmation to appear.
Step 5: Verify Deletion
Once the deletion is complete, you should receive a notification that the property has been deleted. You can also verify this by logging back into your Google Analytics account and checking that the property is no longer listed under the “Admin” tab.
Conclusion
Deleting a property in Google Analytics is a simple process, but it’s important to follow the steps carefully to ensure that your data is not lost or corrupted. By following these steps, you can easily delete a property from your Google Analytics account and free up space for new properties.
