Not sure what you are asking for, you don't see any of that in the GA Content Pack or from the Desktop when you use Google Analytics from the Desktop?

    Exactly. I don't see GA custom segments and reports in the available metrics and dimensions when I'm building my queries for the GA Content Pack.

     

    I want to use some of them for calculated columns, so I'm looking for a way to pull them into Power BI Desktop.

      I think the original question is focused on "custom segments" which I don't see available in power bi GA connector either. 

       

      In Tableau you are able to select custom segments created in your GA account through their GA connector, but I can't find the option in Power BI.

        Has there been anyupdate on this? I am trying to filter my GA data via segments and can't seem to do so.

      You should see in the newest versions of the Power BI Desktop that there's a connector for GA. That should let you get connected to GA and create calculations etc. as you asked.

      Thanks!

        Can I have the custom dimension from GA when I get the data using the power BI app?
