Access for Boomcycle

In order for us to learn what’s happening with your website and business, we need some access to your Google Accounts. This document walks through the process of granting access to the Boomcycle team for existing Google Analytics, Google Search Console, Google Ads, and Google Tag Manager accounts.

Granting Access to Google Analytics

How to Add Users in Google Analytics

Step 1: Open Your Settings in Google Analytics

Then, click the Admin option.

Now you’ll notice there’s a User Management link under every column. That’s because there are 3 levels of access: Account, Property and View:

The Boomcycle team requires edit access at the Account level

To grant that, click the Account Access Management link under the Account column.

Step 2: Add Permissions to a User

Now you’ll be asked to enter the email of the user to whom you’d like to give access. You can give permissions to manage users, collaborate, edit or read and analyze. The Boomcycle team will need Edit access.

First, click the “+” icon.

Then, click “add new users” from the drop-down.

Finally, add the email address you want to share access to.

You can select Notify this user by email to send a notification to each user you’re adding. Then, click Add.

Granting Access to Search Console

There are various levels of user access in Google Search Console (GSC). The Boomcycle team requires Owner access to the client’s GSC property.

Step 1: Navigate to search.google.com and log in.

Step 2: Select the correct property from the “search property” drop down.

Step 3: Next, select the settings of your web property.

Step 4: Under settings select users and permissions.

Step 5: In the Users and permissions settings click the three dots next to an owner’s email address:

Step 6: Add a new owner

This loads the manage property owners screen where you can add a new verified user by clicking the add an owner button:

Step 7: Notify the Boomcycle team that access has been granted.

Granting Access to Google Ads

Step 1: Log into Google Ads

Go to ads.google.com.
Log in using the Google account that owns or manages your Ads account.

Step 2: Open Admin (Access & Security)

In the top right corner, click the Tools & settings icon (the wrench).
Under Setup, click Access and security.

Step 3: Invite New Users

Click the + button.
Enter the email address (first david@boomcycle.com, then repeat for steve@boomcycle.com).
Select the Standard User Role (Can manage campaigns but cannot add/remove users).
Optional: Check Email notifications if you want them to receive alerts.
Click Send invitation.

Step 4: User Accepts the Invite

David and Steve will each receive an email invitation from Google Ads.
They must click Accept invitation.
Once accepted, their accounts will show up under Access and Security with the assigned role.

Step 5: Confirm Access

Log back into Access and Security and verify that both emails appear with the correct role.

Granting Access to Tag Manager

The Google Tag Manager (GTM) platform lets marketers install and adjust tags on your website. These are essential for website improvements, form tracking, and platform integrations (such as Google Analytics)—without requiring code adjustments on your website.

Step 1: Log Into Your Account

First, log into your Google Tag Manager account at https://tagmanager.google.com/.

Step 2: Enter Account Administrative View

You can also jump straight to the administrative view by clicking on the cog icon next to the account.

Step 3: Select “User Management”

Under the “Container” tab, click on “User Management.” Here you can add users, remove users, modify permissions, and view a full list of everyone who has access to your account.

Step 4: Click the Blue Plus Sign

Click the blue plus sign button in the top right corner of your screen, and select “Add users.” This will bring you to the GTM invitation.

Step 5: Enter User Information

Enter the email address of the user(s) you would like to add. The Google Tag Manager invitation will go directly to their email address.

Step 6: Set Permissions

The Boomcycle team requires Publish access to your GTM container. You grant this permission by clicking the checkbox as in the screenshot below

Step 7: Click “Invite”

Finally, click the blue “Invite” button to send account access. Once they accept the invitation, your agency will then be able to start working in your Google Tag Manager account.
