    Hi,miquelmartorell 

    Regarding the issue you raised, my solution is as follows:

    My solution to the issue you have raised is as follows:

    1.Based on the error message you provided, it is likely that there is an authentication issue, so try checking the connector configuration: Make sure that the Google Analytics GA4 connector is properly configured in Power BI.

    You can click "editar" in the error message you provided to verify that you correctly specified all required fields when establishing the connection, especially the "Account" field in the error message you provided.

    2.you can also try returning to an older version of GA if the issue is still not resolved. To the best of my knowledge, Google Analytics has two V4 APIs: V4 Reporting and V4 Data.Power BI does not currently support GA4 Data, but does support GA4 Reporting. Please confirm that it will meet your needs after using this approach.

    3.Below is the relevant documentation:

    Power Query Google Analytics connector - Power Query | Microsoft Learn

    Set up your Google Analytics connection - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn

    Best Regards,
