Tracking the form’s activity with Google Analytics
To track the form’s activity with Google Analytics, go to the Advanced section of your form.
Head over to the Form tab. Enable the option called Insert Google Analytics code on the page.
Provide your Google Analytics Profile ID in the box that shows up and your domain. Now, the page where your form is found is being tracked. You’re not required to paste an extra code in the form itself.
This option automatically sets the form to be tracked in your Google Analytics account.
In order to view the activity associated with your form URL, log in to your Google Analytics account, and select your profile.
Go to Behaviour, on the left panel. Next, go to Site Content – All Pages, then look for your form in the table on the right.
Important: Use JavaScript only to embed your online form if you want the Google Analytics option to track your form correctly.
If you are not the admin of the website where the online form is embedded, contact the admin and ask for the Profile ID to be provided to you.
If you are the admin but have problems finding your Profile ID, log in to your Google Analytics account, and click on the Admin icon. You’ll be redirected to a page that contains three columns: Account, Property, and View.
Select the account under the Account dropdown and choose the Property you want to get the tracking code for.
Select Tracking Code.
It’s an 8-digit code that you will need to copy and paste in the Advanced – Form section, with UA- in front. Here’s an example: UA-11111111.

Does this work if I’m using the form via Wix?
Hi Alex, unfortunately, due to the fact that on Wix the form is being published within an iFrame, the activity cannot be tracked with Google Analytics. For this to work, you would need to link the form to a button and open it in a new window. This publishing method is described in detail here: https://www.123formbuilder.com/docs/alternative-methods-to-publish-your-forms-on-wix.

Hi. I tried to set up my RFQ form to include my GA profile ID. Unfortunately I cannot find any checkbox like “Insert Google Analytics code on the page” on Advanced\Form. Please advise
Hi Oleg, it seems like your form is using our original Notifications version. In this case, you will find the Google Analytics options in your forms Notifications -> Form Owner (You) section. If you need any assistance along the way, please feel free to contact us at customercare@123formbuilder.com. Have a great day!
