Onboarding Data from Google Analytics

Creating a Google Analytics Source

For creating a Google Analytics source, see Configuring Additional Connectors. Ensure that the Source Type selected is Google Analytics.

To enable OAuth for Google Analytics, see Enabling OAuth for CDATA Drivers.

You can connect to the CDATA driver without setting any connection properties for your user credentials.

Set the following embedded OAuth parameters:

OAuth Parameter	Description
Profile	Set this to the Google Analytics profile or view you want to connect to. This value can be retrieved from the Profiles table. If this is not specified, the first Profile returned will be used.
OAuthSettingsLocation	Saves the authentication values to be persisted across connections. The user must register an `init` script on the jobs cluster to propagate the `OAuthSettingsLocation` file across all the worker nodes.

Set the following parameters to authenticate with the credentials for a Custom OAuth app:

Field	Description
OAuthClientId	Set this to the client Id assigned when you registered your app.
OAuthClientSecret	Set this to the client secret assigned when you registered your app.

Field	Description
Fetch Data Using	The mechanism through which Infoworks fetches data from the database.
Connection URL	The connection URL through which Infoworks connects to the database.
Username	The username for the connection to the database.
Password	The password for the username provided.
Source Schema	The schema in the database to be crawled. The schema value is case sensitive.

Once the settings are saved, you can test the connection.

For configuring a Google Analytics table, see Configuring a Table.

To create a JDBC URL, see Establishing a Connection.

The tables and views supported by the source are described in the Data Model.

For the list of JDBC connection parameters, see Connection Parameters.
