Thanks for the response! :) I think I'm using the connector, rather than the content pack. Do you think the filter issue would still apply?

Hi cowork16,

 

I agree with CahabaData. In addition, as mentioned this article, the Google Analytics connector relies on a third-party service. As such, features and availability may vary over time and no guarantee for the results of your queries when using this connector. So I would suggest you to try the content pack to see if it works in this scenario.:smileyhappy:

 

Regards

    Thank you for the replies CahabaData and v-ljerr-msft :) I need data from 2013 forward, and the content pack only seems to go back 6 months, so that didn't work for me, unfortunately. Using the PQGoogleAnalytics third party connector (suggested to me in another post), I got the same, incorrect numbers, but when I queried directly in the Query Editor, I got the correct numbers. So it seems like something is going wrong when I try to put the dimensions/metrics in a report, but I'm not sure what it is.
