# Pre-requisite for the Adloop script

With Google Analytics UAWe need you to create a custom dimension in Google Analytics, in which we will put the information gathered by our script.

Specifications of the custom dimension:

* scope: session
* name: Adloop Click
* number of custom dimensions: if you have GA360, a custom dimension for every 75 000 daily sessions is needed ; if you don’t have GA360, a custom dimension for every 50 000 sessions is needed.

Also, you’ll need the list of excluded referrers (especially payment platforms) when doing the set-up in Adloop.

You’ll find this list in GA > Admin > Property > Tracking Info > Referral Exclusion List.

With Google Analytics 4
