Same problem this my installation attempt. 12/24/18. Everything checks out on Google Console but Analytify plugin does not recognize matching gmail account. I have logged out and back in then waited several minutes as plugin message indicates. I was also logged out of plugin before creating API key.
We need our site to have google analytical for visitors data tracking
I went through all the steps, but it’s not showing up as an option in anilitify under dashboard. It’s saying I need to authenticate it, which I did, but I don’t have the option to choose my site under the drop downs. They’re blank. I don’t know what to do next for it to connect on my site. I don’t see a log in anywhere… in fact where there is one it says do I want to log out… I’m really confused.
Somehow you missed a step in setting up your site at Google analytics. I would recommend to go through the steps again mentioned above, logout from Analytify plugin and Authenticate again. If the problem persists, please contact us at https://analytify.io/support/ and submit your Google Analytics user/pass along with diagnostic logs from Analytify plugin.
Our support team will resolve this issue for you!
Cheers!
I had the same issue. Did you figure out how to fix it?

Thanks to the analytify team, this problem was due to access restrictions in Iran.

Google Analytics is all set up with the email above and the website MealsByMom.com.
The profile page still says:
No Website is registered with your Email at Google Analytics. Please setup your site first, Check out this guide here to setup it properly.
I’ve checked the Google Analytics site and everything is setup

Same issue as everyone else above with “no website” even though it is in fact registered…any fix?
Answered my own question…including here in case it helps anyone else as this seems to be a common issue and isn’t covered in this help guide.
Simply setting up your website in Google Analytics isn’t enough. You also need to enable the Analytics API.
Step 1: Log into your developer console “https://console.developers.google.com/”. You should be redirected to the API dashboard “https://console.developers.google.com/apis/dashboard”.
Step 2: Click the “Enable APIS and Services” button just below the header at the top of the page.
Step 3: Search and select the “Analytics API” in the “API Library” page that opens.
Step 4: Select the enable button on the next page.
Step 5: Return to the Analytify dashboard in wordpress, log out of the google authentication and then log back into reauthenticate.
And viola, you should be in business!!

Selecting a Profile for Posts means, the profile that you want to use for tracking your website. and Selecting a Profile for Dashboard means the Analytics of Profile that you want to display inside your WordPress Dashboard.

Google Analytics is just moved to Google Analytics 4 and with that, it has removed the by default backward compatibility of UA code for new users.
We have written a detailed guide on how to turn on the Google Analytics UA code compatibility to use it with Analytify.
