Overview
This node integrates with the Google Analytics API, specifically targeting the Admin (V1Alpha) resource for managing Data Streams within a Google Analytics property. The "Get Data Stream" operation retrieves detailed information about a specific data stream associated with a given property.
Typical use cases include:
- Fetching configuration details of a particular data stream to audit or verify its settings.
- Integrating Google Analytics data stream metadata into automated workflows for reporting or monitoring.
- Using the retrieved data stream information as part of a larger analytics or marketing automation process.
For example, a user might want to retrieve the details of a web data stream to check its measurement settings or global site tag configuration before making updates or generating reports.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Property ID | The unique identifier of the Google Analytics property that owns the data stream. |
| Data Stream ID | The unique identifier of the data stream to retrieve information about. |
| Query Parameters | Optional parameters to refine or filter the request. Includes options like: |
| - Calculated Metric ID: ID for calculated metrics | |
| - Entity: Level of data access report (property or account) | |
| - Filter: Expression to filter results | |
| - Names: Names of access bindings to retrieve | |
| - Page Size: Maximum number of items to return | |
| - Page Token: Token for pagination | |
| - Show Deleted: Whether to include soft-deleted properties | |
| - Universal Analytics Property ID: UA property linked to GA4 property | |
| - Update Mask: List of fields to update (snake case) |
Output
The output is a JSON array containing the response from the Google Analytics API for the requested data stream. This typically includes all metadata and configuration details of the specified data stream, such as:
- Stream type (e.g., web, app)
- Measurement settings
- Associated tags or identifiers
- Any other relevant configuration details provided by the API
No binary data output is involved in this operation.
Dependencies
- Requires an OAuth2 API credential configured for Google Analytics API access.
- The node uses the Google Analytics Admin API endpoint
https://analyticsadmin.googleapis.com/v1alpha. - Proper permissions on the Google Analytics account/property are necessary to retrieve data stream information.
Troubleshooting
- Missing Credentials Error: If the node throws an error about missing credentials, ensure that a valid Google Analytics OAuth2 credential is configured and selected.
- Required Parameter Errors: Errors indicating missing "Property ID" or "Data Stream ID" mean these inputs must be provided for the operation to succeed.
- API Request Failures: Network issues, insufficient permissions, or invalid IDs can cause API errors. Verify the correctness of IDs and that the authenticated user has access rights.
- Pagination Issues: When using query parameters like page size or token, ensure correct handling of pagination tokens to avoid incomplete data retrieval.
