Hi @Victor Prasad,
In Google Analytics Admin interface, You'll have to create a custom dimension called "Confluence Space Key".
In Confluence Admin > Look and Feel > Custom HTML > At the END of the HEAD, you should paste this:
<script>
  // Standard Google Universal Analytics code
  (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){
  (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),
  m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)
  })(window,document,'script','//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga');
  AJS.toInit(function(){
    ga('create', 'UA-XXXX-Y', 'auto');
    // Add a page-level custom variable to record the space-key
    if (typeof AJS.params.spaceKey === 'string') {
      ga('set', 'dimension1', AJS.params.spaceKey); // Set a `spaceKey` dimension at page level
    }
    ga('send', 'pageview');
  });
</script>

The bit that says:
    if (typeof AJS.params.spaceKey === 'string') {
      ga('set', 'dimension1', AJS.params.spaceKey); // Set a `spaceKey` dimension at page level
    }

...is equivalent to this in your comment:
var dimensionValue = 'SOME_DIMENSION_VALUE';
ga('set', 'dimension1', dimensionValue);

I hope this helps.
Btw: If you need help on adding custom dimensions in Google Analytics, some of the video on this page will be relevant.
