AI-generated

Overview

This node interacts with the Google Analytics API, specifically supporting a wide range of administrative and data management operations across different Google Analytics resources. The selected resource here is Admin (V1Alpha) - Rollup Property Source Link, and the operation is Delete Rollup Property Source Link.

The node enables users to delete a rollup property source link within a specified Google Analytics property. This is useful for managing and cleaning up rollup property configurations by removing links that aggregate data from source properties into a rollup property.

Typical use cases include:

  • Removing obsolete or incorrect rollup property source links.
  • Automating cleanup tasks in Google Analytics property configurations.
  • Managing property relationships programmatically as part of larger analytics workflows.

Properties

Name Meaning
Property ID The identifier of the Google Analytics property where the rollup property source link exists. This is required to specify the context of the deletion.
Rollup Property Source Link ID The unique identifier of the rollup property source link to be deleted. This is required to identify which specific link to remove.
Query Parameters Optional additional parameters to customize the request. Includes options like calculatedMetricId, entity, filter, names, pageSize, pageToken, showDeleted, universalAnalyticsPropertyId, updateMask. These are generally used for filtering or pagination but may not be relevant for the delete operation.

Output

The output of this operation is the JSON response returned by the Google Analytics API after attempting to delete the specified rollup property source link. Typically, for a delete operation, the API returns an empty object or confirmation of deletion.

The json output field will contain this response parsed as JSON.

No binary data output is involved in this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires valid Google Analytics API OAuth2 credentials configured in n8n.
  • The node uses the Google Analytics Admin API v1alpha endpoint: https://analyticsadmin.googleapis.com/v1alpha.
  • Proper permissions on the Google Analytics account/property to perform deletion of rollup property source links.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing Credentials Error: If the node throws "Missing Google Analytics API Credentials", ensure that OAuth2 credentials for Google Analytics API are properly set up and connected.
  • Required Parameter Errors: Errors like "Property ID is required" or "Rollup Property Source Link ID is required" indicate missing mandatory inputs. Make sure these fields are filled correctly.
  • API Permission Errors: If the API returns permission denied errors, verify that the authenticated user has sufficient rights to delete rollup property source links on the specified property.
  • Invalid ID Errors: Providing invalid or non-existent IDs for property or rollup property source link will cause API errors. Double-check the IDs before running the node.
  • Network or API Errors: General API call failures might occur due to network issues or API quota limits. Check connectivity and Google API quotas.
