Google Analytics GA4
Connect to your users' Google Analytics GA4 accounts.
You'll need the following information to set up your Google App with Paragon Connect:
- Client ID
- Client Secret
- Scopes Requested
Note: You'll need to create a new project in Google Cloud Console if you don't already have one.
Paragon provides a redirect URL to send information to your Google app. To add the redirect URL to your Google app:
1. Copy the link under "Redirect URL" in your integration settings in Paragon. The Redirect URL is:
https://passport.useparagon.com/oauth
2. In your Google Cloud Console dashboard, navigate to APIs & Services > Credentials in the sidebar.
3. Press "+ Create Credentials", then select OAuth client ID.
4. Select "Web application" from the Application type drop-down menu.
Note: You'll need to configure Google's consent screen for access to Client ID and Client Secret if you haven't already.
5. Under Authorized redirect URIs, press the "+ Add URI" button.
6. Paste-in the redirect URL from Paragon.
7. Press the blue "Create" button.
Google provides you with the Client ID and Client Secret needed for the next steps after adding the redirect URL to your project.
1. In your Google Cloud Console dashboard, navigate to APIs & Services > Library in the sidebar.
2. Search for "Google Analytics Data API" from the API Library.
3. Select the "Google Analytics Data API".
4. Press the blue "Enable" button to enable the API for your application.
1. Select Google Analytics GA4 from the Integrations Catalog.
2. Under Integrations > Connected Integrations > {YOUR_APP} > Settings, fill out your credentials from the end of Step 1 in their respective sections:
- Client ID: Found at the end of Step 1.
- Client Secret: Found at the end of Step 1.
- Permissions: Select the scopes you've requested for your application. They should begin with
analytics.
Press the blue "Connect" button to save your credentials.
Note: Leaving the Client ID and Client Secret blank will use Paragon development keys.
Once your users have connected their Google Analytics account, you can use the Paragon SDK to access the Google Analytics API on behalf of connected users.
Any Google Analytics API endpoints can be accessed with the Paragon SDK as shown in this example.
// You can find your project ID in the Overview tab of any Integration
// Authenticate the user
paragon.authenticate(<ProjectId>, <UserToken>);
// Generate Realtime Reports in Google Analytics GA4
await paragon.request('googleanalyticsGA4', 'v1beta/properties/propertyId:runRealtimeReport', {
method: 'POST',
body: {
"dimensions": [
{
"name": "country"
}
],
"metrics": [
{
"name": "activeUsers"
}
]
}
});
// Get Audience List from Google Analytics GA4
await paragon.request('googleanalyticsGA4', 'v1alpha/properties/propertyID/audienceLists', {
method: 'GET'
});
Once your Google Analytics GA4 account is connected, you use the Google Analytics GA4 Request step to access any of Google Analytics GA4 API endpoints without the authentication piece.
