### Authenticate

When you're setting up your first workflow with Google Analytics Universal Analytics (UA), you'll need to add your Google Analytics ID so that Google Analytics is a connected app within MESA.

Your Google Analytics ID can be found [by following this document](https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/1008080?hl=en) but you can also read the following instructions:

1. Sign in to your [Google Analytics Account](https://analytics.google.com/).
2. Click on Admin from the left-hand sidebar.

3. Ensure that you have the correct account selected under **Account**.

4. Ensure that you have the correct Property selected under **Property**.

5. Under Property, select **Tracking Info** and then **Tracking Code**.

6. You will find your [Google Analytics ID under Tracking ID](https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/7372977). It should start with **UA** (e.g. UA-000000-2).

7. Copy and paste the **Tracking ID** into the **Google Analytics ID** field in your MESA workflow. Click **Save** and you are all set!

### Locate your transactions sent from MESA in Google Analytics

**🗒 Note**: After your workflow triggers, it may take some time to see data appear in the report due to Google Analytics' processing times.

1. In your Google Analytics account, click on **Conversions**, then **Ecommerce**, and then **Sales Performance** in the left sidebar.

2. You will be taken to the **Sales Performance** report page where you can view different transactions (i.e. #1447 - 841290285154).

**🗒 Note**: If you are not seeing the data from today, please adjust the view dates of your **Sales Performance** report to include today's date by clicking on the [date range selector.](https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/1010052?hl=en)
