Google Analytics not showing tables
- Anonymous4 years ago
Hi TheGeneral ,
First, ensure that Power BI Desktop is the latest version.
Then try to clear the previous credentials and reconnect.
Steps about clearing credentials:
1.In Power BI Desktop, Go to the File menu and select Options and Settings > Data Source settings
2.Clear the credential.
The steps about connecting Google Analytics:
- In Power BI Desktop, click “Get Data” from the Home ribbon tab.
- Select “Online Services” from the categories in the left pane.
- Select Google Analytics from the list of online services.
- At the bottom of the window, click “Connect.”
- You’ll be prompted with a dialog that explains that the Google Analytics connector is a third-party service. Click “Continue” to move forward.
- You’ll be prompted to sign in to Google Analytics. When you enter your credentials, you’ll see a message that Power BI would like to have online access. To let Power BI Desktop access your GA data, you’ll want to accept.
- After you accept, Power BI Desktop will show that you’re signed in to Google Analytics.
- Select “Connect” to link your Google Analytics data with Power BI Desktop.

Hi, Power bi's connector for google analytics has always had its issues, the biggest being sampling.
I think it would be much easier for you to connect your google analytics data to a data warehouse and then get it to power bi.
But this can be a hassle and quite technical, so I would advise you, to use a third-party connector, who already has this setup such as this one that I've been using for a while now ( https://windsor.ai/connect-google-analytics-to-power-bi-guide/).
