Steps to Set-up Auto Tagging in Google Analytics with Google AdWords:

1 - First, you need to create your Google Ads and Google Analytics accounts. We recommend using the same Google Account to create your accounts.
2 - Next, you want to Link your accounts. You can do this by first going to the Admin page in Google Analytics and clicking on Google Ads Linking underneath the property section.
3 - You can link your accounts in Google Analytics, set-up to include All Website Data, and enable Auto-Tagging, which will happen automatically, by using the Analytics interface.
4 - Next, go to your Google AdWords account, click on settings, and click on Linked Accounts. You can make sure that your Google Analytics account is linked and you can set-up Goals and import them as conversions.
5 - Finally, go to your Overview screen in AdWords, click on settings down the left hand side, and make sure you have Auto-Tagging enabled in Google AdWords.

In order to make sure it is all set-up, you want to go back to Google Analytics under Campaigns and Google Ads and you will be able to see all of your data, results, and statistics for your campaign.
