Cost data import required field updates
We’ve made it easier to import cost data using Data Import in Google Analytics. You can now import cost data using three required fields: source, medium, and date for Google Analytics to join against.
The campaign_name and campaign_id associated with your cost data will no longer be required fields, but can optionally be included as key fields. When available, we highly recommend importing these fields as this allows for more granular reporting. When cost data is imported without campaign_name and/or campaign_id, cost data will be reported in aggregate when these dimensions are requested.

Copy reports and explorations across properties
You can now copy the configuration of a custom detail report or exploration from one property to your other properties, so you can avoid configuration differences across properties, save time creating the reports and explorations, and spend more time analyzing and getting insights from their data.

Consent settings hub
You can now learn about and manage consent settings from a centralized hub in Google Analytics Admin. This hub helps you understand how Analytics uses consent signals, view the collection status of consent signals across your property’s streams, and review and address consent-related diagnostics. To access in Admin, under Data collection and modification, click Consent settings.
