Hi phillipross2000 As a workaround, maybe you can try to test your connection with a 3rd party connector. I currently use windsor.ai's GA connector and I can bring date field from GA, and also I can filter by date on a preview stage in the platfrom before exporting to PBI, so once my data arrives in PBI it is already filtered for the date range I set. In case you wonder, to make the connection first search for the GA connector in the data sources list:

 

 

After that, just grant access to your GA account using your credentials, then on preview and destination page you will see a preview of your GA fields:

 

 

There just select the fields you need. Finally, just select PBI as your data destination and finally just copy and paste the url on PBI --> Get Data --> Web --> Paste the url.
