Google Analytics 4 MCP Server

MCP server for Google Analytics 4 — create properties, configure data streams, manage conversions, and run reports via the Admin & Data APIs.

Setup (one-time, ~3 minutes)

1. Google Cloud Console → IAM & Admin → Service Accounts

   • Create a service account (any name)
   • Click it → Keys → Add Key → JSON → Download

2. Enable APIs in your GCP project:

   • Google Analytics Admin API
   • Google Analytics Data API

3. GA4 Admin → Property Access Management → Add the service account email (from the JSON) as Editor

4. Configure credentials (pick one):

   • Option A (recommended): Copy the JSON content into the GA_CREDENTIALS env var in your MCP config
   • Option B: Save the file to ~/.google-analytics-4-mcp/credentials.json

Done. No browser flow, no consent screen, no tokens to refresh.
