EPiServer.GoogleAnalytics now support Google Analytics GA4

As you know Google Analytics 4 is replacing Universal Analytics. On July 1, 2023, your Universal Analytics properties will stop collecting data. Only GA4 properties will collect data after July 1.

We have just released the latest version of the EPiServer.GoogleAnalytics package, version 4.0, in which you can now display GA4 analytics data on your site. And note that with this version 4.0, you will only be able to use it with a Google Analytics account that has already added the GA4 property. Instructions for migrating data from Universal Analytics to Google Analytics 4 can be found here.
