The component supports Google Analytics 4 APIs. The component provides a relational view of the Google Analytics profiles in your Google account or across your Google Apps domain. The component includes tables that contain often-used dimensions and metrics as columns; additionally, you can customize the table schemas or write your own to combine any valid set of dimensions and metrics. The component exposes the columns available through the Data API (Google Analytics 4) and the Admin API (Google Analytics 4). You must enable these APIs by creating a project in the Google Developers Console. See "Connecting to Google Analytics" for a guide to creating a project and authenticating to the APIs.
