1. Login to your GA account
2. Open the app to which you want to add the CD.
3. Open the Admin tab
4. In the property tab, open Custom Definitions
   
5. Click on Custom Dimensions
   
6. Click on +New Custom Dimension
   
7. Add the name from App Studio; *Custom Dimension 1 
   Scope is *HIT  
   Click the tick box, Active  
   
8. Then repeat until you have added all 6 names. Once finished you will have the following list:
   CD1 Access Method
   CD2 Page Type
