Google Analytics Tool

Hi Folks,

 

I am trying to connect GA data via Alteryx GA Macro but I see different sign in options as attached in image. I don't see option of "Online" and "offline" Sign in that's in ALteryx documentation. Am I doing something wrong?

 

I even tried to select first opion to override OAuth2 but when I try to connect it says "Error 400: redirect_uri_mismatch". When I try thru OAuth playground it connects me to right URI as I have mentioned while setting in Google API Console (https://developers.google.com/oauthplayground).

 

Any help appreciated as at the end, I am trying not to manually enter refresh token every day and have it run automatically.

Hi @Nishit_Shah 

 

This is just the latest version of the tool. You just need to hit the connect button and authenticate and it should create a connection token for you.

You can find documentation on the latest version of the tool here: https://help.alteryx.com/20213/designer/google-analytics-tool

Thanks Brandon. I tried but throws redirect error.

 

Attached is the error. I can connect via OAth Playground but not thru Alteryx. If I select optional connection token also and put token, it connects well, but with that I have to provide refresh token every time.

 

I have https://developers.google.com/oauthplayground this as REDIRECT URI in API Console.

Can you make sure that you are on the latest version of the connector? https://gallery.alteryx.com/#!app/Google-Analytics/5898afe9effc2a0bb0a11644 

 

You should not have to check the boxes every time and do not need to check the boxes unless you are using Client ID and Secret or sharing the same token between multiple Google Analytics tools.
