Google analytics - gtag user id issues

I've been trying to send user_id to google analytics with no success so far. I followed the instructions on the console which is basically to set the 'user_id' as follows:

<script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=XXX"></script>
<script>
    window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];

    function gtag() {
        dataLayer.push(arguments);
    }

    gtag('js', new Date());
    gtag('config', 'XXXXX', {'user_id': '{{ user.id }}'});
</script>

Most of the thread i've read was to configure in the old way: ga

As per documentation , you should be setting it like so:

gtag('config', 'GA_TRACKING_ID', {
  'user_id': 'USER_ID'
});
