Hi, 

you are facing an issue of sampling or access issue, you might not have the admin rights to connect it to Power bi.  And also Power bi's connector for google analytics has a sampling issue and an API Calls limit.

Might be better to connect Google analytics to Power bi using a third-party connector such as windsor.ai, you can test this through their ready and free to use app https://appsource.microsoft.com/en-us/product/power-bi/windsorgroupgmbh1585043281642.media_overview_....

Yes, I can see all the data in google analytics

Hi @Metr 

 

Try again after downloading the latest version of desktop from the official website. and you can check if the Google Analytics Core Reporting API returns the same result, you can check it in Query Explorer tool.Query Explorer — Google Analytics Demos & Tools (ga-dev-tools.appspot.com)


Let me know the result immediately, looking forward to your reply.

Best Regards,

Thanks for your help.

 

My desktop verison is the latest.

 

Query Explorer returns

"Error code: 403

Error message: User does not have sufficient permissions for this profile." 

for projets that cannot see data. 

 

And the projest that can see data pull data from Query Explorer normally.

 

In addition, theses projects are all under the same account.
