How to Send Bit Form Data to Google Analytics 4
Google Analytics 4 is a analytics platform. Here is how to pipe Bit Form submission straight into Google Analytics 4 using Advanced Form Integration. The setup takes about five minutes and runs entirely on your own server.
Skip the automation middleman
Rather than routing data through a third-party cloud, AFI sends it directly from your WordPress server to analytics. No task meter, no monthly bill.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with Bit Form installed and configured.
- A Google Analytics 4 account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Google Analytics 4 to AFI
- Get your GA4 Measurement ID and API Secret from your GA4 property.
- In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → GA4.
- Enter the Measurement ID and API Secret.
- Click Save.
Setting up the integration
1. Create a new integration
Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Bit Form to Google Analytics 4.
2. Pick your trigger
Select Bit Form as the form provider. AFI fires when a form is submitted, giving you access to submitter name, email, phone, and any custom form fields.
3. Select Google Analytics 4 as the destination
Choose Google Analytics 4 from the platform dropdown and pick Send Event. This sends an event to Google Analytics 4.
4. Map fields
Match each Google Analytics 4 field on the left to the corresponding Bit Form field on the right. Common mappings include submitter name, email, phone, and any custom form fields. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.
5. Add conditions if needed
Only want to send certain records? Set up a conditional rule based on any field value.
6. Save and test
Click Save Integration. Trigger a test event in Bit Form. Check Google Analytics 4 to confirm the data arrived. If anything looks wrong, open AFI → Log to see the exact request and response.
Free vs Pro
The free version maps event name and parameters to Google Analytics 4 with unlimited records. Pro adds custom parameter mapping. No per-record fees on any plan.
