Answer
To filter internal traffic in Google Analytics 4 (GA4), you need to set up an internal traffic filter using IP address rules. This can be done in the Admin section under Data Streams.
- Sign in to your Google Analytics account.
- Navigate to Admin → Data Streams and select your data stream.
- Under "Additional Settings," click on "More Tagging Settings" and then "Define Internal Traffic."
- Click "Create" and enter your IP address range and a name for the rule.
- Save the rule and then create a filter in the "Data Settings" to exclude this traffic.
Additional Comment:
- Ensure that the IP addresses you enter are correct and cover all internal traffic sources.
- After setting up the rule, you can test it by checking the real-time reports to ensure internal traffic is excluded.
- Remember that changes might take some time to reflect in your reports.
