Google Analytics - GA4 Connector

Google Analytics - GA4 Google Analytics is Google's platform of analytics tooling. This component allows you to manage Analytics GA4 data.

Connections​

OAuth 2.0​

OAuth 2.0 connection for Google Analytics GA4

The Google Analytics component authenticates requests through Google's OAuth 2.0 service.

To create a Google Analytics developer account and authenticate, follow their Configure OAuth Consent guide

Now, you will have to configure OAuth 2.0 settings. Create a new Google Analytics connection of type OAuth 2.0.

  • For Client ID and Client Secret enter the values that you got from the Google Cloud Platform auth settings.
  • For Scopes choose from the list found on Google's service scopes documentation

App Verification​

Google requires OAuth apps that request access to user data to pass a verification review before being deployed at scale. This process ensures the app complies with Google's API Services User Data Policy, accurately represents its functionality, and handles user data responsibly.

Google OAuth apps pass through three stages before they are ready for production use.

Testing (unpublished): The app is only accessible to users manually added as test users in the OAuth consent screen. Up to 100 test users are allowed — all other users receive an error. This is the expected state during initial development.

Published, unverified: After publishing the app, all Google users can authenticate. However, for sensitive scopes, users see a "This app isn't verified" warning. Users can proceed by clicking Advanced → Go to [app name] (unsafe), but this warning reduces trust and may be blocked by organizations with strict Google Workspace policies.

Verified: Google has reviewed and approved the app. No warning is shown. Verification is required before deploying to production users.

Publishing the App​

Publishing is required before any users outside the test list can authenticate:

  1. In the Google Cloud Console, navigate to APIs & Services → OAuth consent screen
  2. Click PUBLISH APP and confirm

Requesting Verification​

The scopes used by this component are classified as sensitive by Google. Submitting for verification removes the "This app isn't verified" warning:

  1. On the OAuth consent screen, click Prepare for verification
  2. Provide a privacy policy URL, authorized domain, and app logo
  3. Submit for review — Google typically responds within several weeks

Refer to Google's OAuth consent screen documentation for the full verification requirements.

This connection uses OAuth 2.0, a common authentication mechanism for integrations. Read about how OAuth 2.0 works here.
