Sure, but why use google analytics? There are better trackers for this kind of thing that don't need cookies and can be self-hosted.

Could you recommend some alternatives to Google Analytics? I am developing a plugin for Photoshop using UXP, and I have been unable to integrate it with GA.
Plausible seems like a fine choice for simple cases. It is oriented at websites, but you can send events directly to the API: https://plausible.io/docs/events-api

It is self-hostable, too. https://github.com/plausible/hosting

We use Matomo and have been fairly happy with it.
