Hi @berdai labs. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- To integrate Google Analytics in a Refine application using Next.js, you can follow the approach outlined in the provided knowledge sources. Here's a step-by-step guide: 1. Set up Environment Variables: Define your Google Analytics ID in the env.local file with the NEXT_PUBLIC_ prefix to make it accessible in the browser.
# env.local
NEXT_PUBLIC_GOOGLE_ANALYTICS_ID='your_google_analytics_id_here'

# env.local
NEXT_PUBLIC_GOOGLE_ANALYTICS_ID='your_google_analytics_id_here'

2. Use the Environment Variable in Your Code: In your Next.js application, you can use the NEXT_PUBLIC_GOOGLE_ANALYTICS_ID to configure Google Analytics. Here's an example of how you can do this in the _app.js file:
import Script from 'next/script';

function MyApp({ Component, pageProps }) {
return (
<>
<Script strategy="lazyOnload" src={`<https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=${process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_GOOGLE_ANALYTICS_ID}`}> />
<Script strategy="lazyOnload">
{`
window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}
gtag('js', new Date());
gtag('config', '${process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_GOOGLE_ANALYTICS_ID}', {
page_path: window.location.pathname,
});
`}
</Script>
<Component {...pageProps} />
</>
);
}

export default MyApp;

import Script from 'next/script';

function MyApp({ Component, pageProps }) {
return (
<>
<Script strategy="lazyOnload" src={`<https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=${process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_GOOGLE_ANALYTICS_ID}`}> />
<Script strategy="lazyOnload">
{`
window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}
gtag('js', new Date());
gtag('config', '${process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_GOOGLE_ANALYTICS_ID}', {
page_path: window.location.pathname,
});
`}
</Script>
<Component {...pageProps} />
</>
);
}

export default MyApp;

This code uses the <Script /> component from Next.js to load and configure Google Analytics. The lazyOnload strategy ensures that the analytics script is loaded after all other resources have been fetched and the browser is idle. For more detailed guidance, you can refer to the Next.js environment variables documentation (https://refine.dev/blog/next-js-environment-variables/#using-environment-variables-in-the-browser) and the Next.js integration with Refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/routing/integrations/next-js/). ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
