# You want page titles kept out of Google, so you ticked "Hide Google Analytics pages in Confluence"

**What you are seeing**

You want page titles kept out of Google, so you ticked "Hide Google Analytics pages in Confluence".

---

## Why it happens

That setting only hides the app's own report pages from Confluence navigation. It has never affected what is sent to Google, and titles are still reported.

---

## What to do

That setting is not the right lever. To keep titles out of Google you would need to change what your GA property retains, or not track those pages at all.

## Settings involved

| **Setting**                           | **Where**                                           | **What it does**                                                                                                                                                                               |
| ------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Connect Google Analytics / Disconnect | Settings > Apps > Google Analytics > Connect Google | Starts a Google sign-in popup. The connection is site-level: one admin connects once and the whole Confluence site uses it. Disconnect revokes access at Google and deletes the stored tokens. |
| GA4 property                          | Settings > Apps > Google Analytics > Connect Google | Which GA4 property the in-Confluence reports read from. Also scopes the data stream, API secret and custom dimension controls.                                                                 |
| Data stream                           | Settings > Apps > Google Analytics > View tracking  | Picking a web data stream fills in the Measurement ID for you.                                                                                                                                 |

## Limits that apply here

| **Limit**               | **Value** | **What happens**                                                                                                                             |
| ----------------------- | --------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| GA4 data latency        | \-        | New events and newly created custom dimensions take up to 48 hours to appear in Google Analytics. This is Google's behaviour, not the app's. |
| Google connection scope | \-        | The Google connection is site-level, not per-user. One admin connects and everyone uses it.                                                  |
