Google Analytics with gtag.js - Difference between UA vs GA tag

I'm configuring my Google Analytics to work with gtag.js. This is a new account and I'm not dealing with any pre-existing analytics code or tags.

From: https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/gtagjs

From my Google Analytics Console (Admin section)

QUESTION

I was expecting to get a GA- tag from my Google Analytics snippet. But instead I've got a UA- tag. What is the difference between these 2 types of tags?

Usually all the values of GA_MEASUREMENT_ID match the pattern of:

UA-<some numbers>-<some numeber>

so there's no problem with your value of tracking ID and it should work just fine
