# Using Google Analytics

**Note:**Google has **deprecated the use of "Universal Analytics."** As of July 1, 2023 you must use **GA4 tags** instead.

You can link the player to your Google Analytics account to receive analytics data regarding **Play**, **Stop**, **Pause**, and **Resume** events.

Analytics is controlled in the embed code for the media player in the**[var tdPlayerConfig](/v1/docs/embedding-the-td-web-player-sdk)**section. If you plan to use Google Analytics, add the `analytics` section from the code example below to the embed code, then customize the properties.

```javascript
        var tdPlayerConfig = {
               analytics: {
            active: true,
            debug: false,
            appInstallerId: 'tdinstallapp',            
            trackingId: 'G-AABBCCD64L',
            trackingEvents: [ 'play', 'stop', 'pause', 'resume', 'all' ],
            sampleRate: 5,     
            category: 'Triton SDK' 
      },
      coreModules: [{
            id: 'MediaPlayer',
            playerId: 'td_container'
      }],
      playerReady: onPlayerReady,
      configurationError: onConfigurationError,
      moduleError: onModuleError,
      adBlockerDetected: onAdBlockerDetected
    };
```
