    Thank you :)

Hi purnima13,

 

The Google Analytics connector in Power BI Desktop rely on the Google Analytics Core Reporting API. Although Power BI attempt to release updates in accordance with API changes. It cannot guarantee the results of your queries when using this connector. I would suggest you contact with  Google Analytics support for further analysis.

 

Besides, here are two similar thread about Google Analytics connector issues:
