Hi!
When I compare data (sessions etc) in Google Analytics and by the data I got in my huge PBI table, it doesnt match. Have I structured the data in a wrong way? If yes, how would I combine the data best and do the relations of tables?
I would like to be able to breakdown metrics for Months and by Country, device, best performing pages, channels etc.
Example data of my table:
| Default Channel Grouping | Country | Page | Device Category | Date | Month of the year | Year | Pageviews | Unique Pageviews | Bounces | Sessions | Users | Year-Month |

The Google Analytics connector has some reliability issues because it works in top of data that is sampled and pre-aggregated. It works fine to a certain extend and then it goes south.
Read my article to understand the details why.
