Google Analytics based on Microsoft.AspNet.Identity roles

Question

I am trying to find a way to register all the traffic of a website with Google Analytics, spliting the reporting based on the Microsoft.AspNet.Identity role.

I did not found anything that allows to do it.

Something like:

if(User.IsInRole("public")) 
{
  <script>
    (function (i, s, o, g, r, a, m) {
        i['GoogleAnalyticsObject'] = r; i[r] = i[r] || function () {
            (i[r].q = i[r].q || []).push(arguments)
        }, i[r].l = 1 * new Date(); a = s.createElement(o),
        m = s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0]; a.async = 1; a.src = g; m.parentNode.insertBefore(a, m)
    })(window, document, 'script', '//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js', 'ga');

    ga('create', 'PUBLIC', 'auto');
    ga('send', 'pageview');

  </script>
}
else if (User.IsInRole("private")) 
{
   <script>
    (function (i, s, o, g, r, a, m) {
        i['GoogleAnalyticsObject'] = r; i[r] = i[r] || function () {
            (i[r].q = i[r].q || []).push(arguments)
        }, i[r].l = 1 * new Date(); a = s.createElement(o),
        m = s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0]; a.async = 1; a.src = g; m.parentNode.insertBefore(a, m)
    })(window, document, 'script', '//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js', 'ga');

    ga('create', 'PRIVATE', 'auto');
    ga('send', 'pageview');

  </script>
}

You are looking for the User ID feature. Here is a Tutorial.

You need to setup the feature. Then you can start tracking like this:

ga('create', 'UA-XXXXXX-Y', {'userId': customUserId});

Anonymous Users you can detect by

User.Identity.IsAuthenticated

You want to send a userid that you do not have like 0 for anonymous users.
