How can I globally change a custom dimensions value for a client id?

For instance say I have a user with the client id of 9394923.23349243 and I have a custom dimension called Lead Status. I want to update the value of the custom dimension everywhere for that client id.

How can I globally change a custom dimensions value for a client id?

It it possible to globally update a custom dimension associated with a client id?

Technical Information

  • I am pushing data to GA via the Measurement Protocol
  • Wrote a script in PHP 5.6.29 to send curl requests
Solution

  • You need use custom dimension on "User" scope. After one setup this dimension it will be everywhere in Google Analytics with this user.
