Google Analytics GA4 still showing View ID as required field

  • Is this your first time deploying Airbyte?: No
  • OS Version / Instance: amazon-linux-2
  • Memory / Disk: 8GB memory / 200GB disk
  • Deployment: docker
  • Airbyte Version: * 0.40.3
  • Source name/version: Google Analytics v4
  • Destination name/version: Redshift
  • Step: Creating a new source
  • Description: We recently updated to Airbyte v0.40.3 with the intention of setting up our Google Analytics GA4 connection. I am still seeing View ID as a required field.

The connector you’re looking for is actually called the Google Analytics Data API in the Airbyte UI. Google Analytics v4 is actually a different connector for their legacy Universal Analytics API.

Really sorry about the confusion here, our docs are very misleading. I’ll be submitting a request to fix them asap.

In the meantime, this is the correct docs link: https://docs.airbyte.com/integrations/sources/google-analytics-v4/

For your reference, this doc is referring to the legacy connector: https://docs.airbyte.com/integrations/sources/google-analytics-universal-analytics/

Hope that helps, let me know if we can answer any other questions
