To give a new user access to your Google Analytics, you need to make sure you are an admin of the account first.
Once that’s confirmed, here’s how to grant access to someone else via your Google Analytics dashboard:
1. Login to your Google Analytics account
2. Click on “Admin” in the bottom left-hand corner.
3. Click “Account Access Management”
4. Click the Blue + symbol in the top right corner and select “Add Users”
5. Enter the email address of the user you want to add. Then select the permissions as “Administrator” . Click “Add” in the top right hand corner.
6. The person you want to give access to will receive an email with a link they can click on. The user will need to log in to their Google Account and should then have immediate access to the permissions you granted them.
