Call Tracking
Google Analytics Integration
Stop treating the phone as a blind spot. CallRing AI sends completed calls, missed calls, voicemails and messages into Google Analytics 4 as events — so calls sit right alongside your website traffic and conversions. Scoped by a whole workspace or just specific numbers, with no extra tracking code to deploy.

What is the Google Analytics integration?
It makes phone calls visible in the same place you already measure everything else. Using the GA4 Measurement Protocol, CallRing AI sends an event to your Google Analytics property whenever a call completes, a call is missed, a voicemail is left, or a message arrives. Because they are ordinary GA4 events, you can report on them, mark them as conversions, build audiences, and fold calls into your attribution — all with no extra script on your website.
Set up in minutes
Connect Google Analytics in three steps
No OAuth, no website changes. Paste two values and you are live.
Add your GA4 property
Create a record and paste your Measurement ID (G-XXXXXXXXXX) and a Measurement Protocol API secret from your GA4 admin. That is the destination.
Choose what it covers
Scope the record to a whole workspace or a hand-picked set of numbers, so only the calls you care about are measured.
Turn on your events
Enable completed calls, missed calls, voicemails and messages, and pick the fields to send. Events start flowing into GA4 straight away.
What gets measured
Four events, sent straight to GA4
Each one arrives with its own event name, ready to report on and mark as a conversion.
Call Completed
call_completed
A successful call fires a GA4 event so answered calls count as engagement.
Missed Call
missed_call
Unanswered calls are tracked so you can measure and reduce missed demand.
Voicemail
voicemail
Voicemails become events so you can see intent even when nobody answered.
Message
message
Texts are sent as events so conversations show up in your reports too.
Why teams like it
Close the loop between calls and marketing
No website code
Events are sent server to server via the Measurement Protocol — nothing to add to your site or tag container.
Mark as conversions
Because they are normal GA4 events, you can flag them as key events and use them in reports and attribution.
Precise scoping
Send only the numbers that matter — target a whole workspace or a hand-picked list per record.
Fields you choose
Attach the parameters you need — direction, status, duration, source and more — to each event you send.
Calls in your funnels
See phone activity next to web sessions so you can compare channels and understand true demand.
Your keys, your data
You supply your own Measurement ID and API secret, so events land in a property you fully control.

FAQ
Common questions
I am switching from CallRail. Can I set up Google Analytics the same way?
Setup is self-service and takes a few minutes. Connect Google Analytics, choose which numbers each record covers, and turn on the events you want. Nothing is migrated automatically, so keep your existing setup running until the new one is working.
How do I connect Google Analytics?
There is no OAuth to set up. In your dashboard you create a record, paste your GA4 Measurement ID (G-XXXXXXXXXX) and a Measurement Protocol API secret, choose which numbers it covers, and turn on the events you want.
Do I need to add tracking code to my website?
No. Events are sent server to server via the GA4 Measurement Protocol, so there is no extra script or tag to deploy on your site.
Can I mark calls as conversions?
Yes. Because each event lands in GA4 as a normal event, you can mark it as a key event or conversion and use it in reports, audiences and attribution just like any web event.
Which events are sent?
Completed calls, missed calls, voicemails and messages, each sent as its own GA4 event with the fields you choose to include.
Can different numbers report to different properties?
Yes. Each record has its own Measurement ID and API secret and is scoped to a workspace or a set of numbers, so you can route to whichever GA4 property fits.
