Empty navigator after connecting Google Analytics

[Michieldo]

Hi,

When I log in on Google Analytics I can see traffic on the website. However, when I (succesfully) connect my Google Analytics account to Power BI, it tells me that there is not data to show. In the picture below, it concerns the lowest account.

Does anyone recognize this problem?

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Michieldo,

The screenshot you provided shows that No items selected.

In Power BI desktop, the connector connect to Google Analytics rely on the Google Analytics Core Reporting API.

I would suggest you firstly check if the Google Analytics Core Reporting API returns the same result, you can check it in Query Explorer tool: https://ga-dev-tools.appspot.com/query-explorer/. 

If you still have some question, please don't hesitate to let me known.‌‌

Hi, @Manuja were you able to find a solution? I used the GA native connector but had some issues with my connection sometimes too. As a workaround, maybe you can try to test your connection with a 3rd party connector. I've tried windsor.ai, supemetrics and funnel.io. I stayed with windsor because it is much cheaper so just to let you know other options. In case you wonder, to make the connection first search for the GA connector in the data sources list:

After that, just grant access to your GA account using your credentials, then on preview and destination page you will see a preview of your GA fields:

There just select the fields you need. Finally, just select PBI as your data destination and finally just copy and paste the url on PBI --> Get Data --> Web --> Paste the url.
