Google Analytics Daily Limit Exceeded
Hi Community,
I have been getting Google analytics daily limit reached error since last 3-4 days. I have certainly nor reached any limits ( esp after PT midnight - as I get same error with any query - even for trying to connect to GA).
Anyone else also getting same error?
I have seen carlito message, but thought to start a new thread so that its more visible as other thread is already 'solved'.
Edit:
I can access the API, and retrieve data from outside PBI (Python in my case)
Don't even let you connect to the source ie GA connector

Worked fine for some time on 12th, ie yesterday, but again back to the error.

Opened a ticket with microsoft

I have the same problem.
I can't refresh GA data in Power BI Desktop. (Using default connector)
Obs: GA data at Power BI cloud are refreshing normally.

Hi,
Have you guys seen this post.
Seems that the problem was identified and solved.

This link describes the limits.

I have found a solution ;)
Forget the powerbi connector to google analytics, because it has this limit issue.
What I have done is open a new spreedsheet on google drive, and then I have installed the "google analytics" complement, which you can find on the Complement Menu (add new).
Run the complement, define the metrics and dimmensions you need, define a scheduled refresh and run the complement.
Once it is ready, go to File menu, publish to web as csv file, and insert in powerbi this URL (get data web).
That´s it, the data is refreshed via google drive, and powerbi gets the data from this file ;)
Hope it helps!!

I am getting the same error, it used to let me update once early morning but now I cannot update at all. The issue is with Power Bi and the GA API.

Same here - It worked on Monday - tested few times, all fine - back to square one today .
Should we be opening a ticket with Microsoft.

I also have that problem in the last days.
I wrote a script in google script that save the GA data into google spredsheet, from there I use some free service that sinc the files from google drive to one drive, and I read the data from the onedrive. its works great and I can finally use incremental loading in power BI
