Connecting your Google tools
Connect the Google tools that show what's working on your site. Each connection is per site and takes about a minute. Every tool follows the same shape: add Site Star's email as a user, then enter your details. The exact steps for each are below.
These three all reach the same Site Star agent, and it does the same thing whichever you pick. Use whatever's in reach.
- Site Star dashboardThe message box on My Site, once you're signed in.
- TextText your site's number from a phone it knows. Photos come through.
- EmailEmail your site's address. Attachments come through.
- Your own AI assistant Different setup, same result. Connect Claude or another assistant to your site once, then ask it from the chat you already use, and it acts on your site for you. Set it up
How it works
Make sure you're on the Website tab, then open Settings in the sidebar and click Integrations:
From there:
- Next to the tool you want, click Connect.
- Use the Copy button to copy Site Star's email, then follow the two steps for that tool.
Ask Site Star
- Connect Google Analytics. Property ID 123456789, measurement ID G-AB12CD34.
- What email do I add in Search Console for you?
The Google half is yours: only you can add a user to your Google account. The Site Star half is one message with your details.

In Settings → Integrations, click Connect next to the tool and enter your details in Step 2.

Your Property ID (numbers, like 123456789, found under Admin → Property settings) and your Measurement ID (like G-AB12CD34, found under Admin → Data streams → your web stream).
Google Tag Manager
Tags and tracking snippets, managed in one container.

Your Account ID (a number, found under Admin → Account settings) and your Container ID (like GTM-A1B2C3, shown at the top of your Tag Manager workspace).
Edit or disconnect
Once a tool is linked, it shows Connected. You can Edit the details or Disconnect it any time from the same place.
