Google Analytics

To connect Google Analytics to Polytomic On Premises, you must create a Google OAuth client.

1. In the Google Cloud console, select your project and enable these APIs:

   • Google Analytics Data API
   • Google Analytics Admin API

2. Open Google Auth Platform. If you haven't set it up for this project, complete Branding and Audience.

   🚧

   Testing mode

   Google expires refresh tokens after 7 days for external apps in testing. Use an internal app, or publish the app, so Connections keep working.

3. Under Clients, create a client with these options:

   • Application type: Web application.
   • Name: Any name, for example Polytomic Google Analytics client.
   • Authorized redirect URIs: {POLYTOMIC_URL}/connect/googleanalytics. For example, if you access Polytomic at https://polytomic.acmecorp.com, use https://polytomic.acmecorp.com/connect/googleanalytics.

4. Copy the client ID and client secret.

5. Set these credentials in your Polytomic deployment:

   • GOOGLEANALYTICS_CLIENT_ID: the client ID.
   • GOOGLEANALYTICS_CLIENT_SECRET: the client secret.

6. Follow the Google Analytics instructions to create a Connection.
