Add support for Google Analytics 4 to ArcGIS StoryMaps

[PeterKnoop]

Please add support to ArcGIS StoryMaps for the new tracking IDs for Google Analytics 4.  It would be great if the current user experience was maintained as well, and you could simply paste either a version 3 or 4 tracking ID into the field under Story Settings, and have it work.

@OwenGeo I'm trying to add tracking to a storymap now, and it was working when I used a universal analytics tracking ID, but once I changed it to a Measurement ID for Google Analytics 4 it stopped working. Are there any troubleshooting guides on this? I haven't seen any in the help forums here yet. Thank you!

@CulturalHeritagePartners - Thanks for your question about Google Analytics in StoryMaps. Did you republish the story after updating the tracking ID? Can you share a little more detail on what you mean by it stopped working?
