Adding UA account to existing Google Analytics

[Jim Gilbert(WTPL)]

Thank you all,

We have a handle on what happened. During some redesign work, a former administrator was not removed.
In doing house cleaning, he deleted the account, and my permission to access (per Adwords support).
We thought the account was transferred to myself awhile ago (rather than permission added).

Adwords suggested they MIGHT be able to restore the account, provided the prior administrator calls in the next day or two.
We are working with him to restore with Adwords.

Subject: Re: [WEB4LIB] Adding UA account to existing Google Analytics

Someone who has admin (Manage Users) privileges in the GA account needs to add (or re-add) you.

They need to go to the GA <https://www.google.com/analytics/web>, select the account, click the admin tab, then select User Management and add you, giving you the appropriate privileges.

This will be simple, unless:

a) Nobody has admin privileges for the account; or

b) You have moved to Universal Analytics, in which case it will likely still be simple, once you figure it out. Neither we, nor our clients have made that move yet.

Thanks,

Cary

Hello,

I’m not sure how this happened, but our website’s UA- number on Google Analytics dropped off my account.
I am looking for a way to ADD the existing UA number and regain the statistics on it.

A last resort would be starting over with a new UA-number.
I’d really prefer to regain access to the existing number.

Has anyone done this and know how to work inside Google Analytics, I’m not seeing an area to reassign the number?

Thank you,
