Google Analytics Data (GA4): Troubleshooting

Google Analytics Data (GA4): Troubleshooting#

I see a resource exhausted error message when fetching data from Google Analytics Data (GA4)#

The Resource Exhausted Error for Property ID [ID] error message appears because the Google Analytics Data (GA4) API has a daily request limit per customer. The limit refreshes every 24 hours.

To resolve this issue, collect your data over several smaller fetches, e.g. using shorter date ranges.

The values for my metrics are inflated when I collect data from Google Analytics Data (GA4)#

When fetching data, metrics such as Sessions and Users can be inflated as you add more dimensions. This is a common issue with web analytics tools, as individual sessions, users, etc. can be counted multiple times. This can happen for the following reasons:

  • Some metrics are non-aggregatable and calculated using estimates. This means that the total row in a Google Analytics Data (GA4) UI report will not accurately match the sum of all rows. For example, a report may contain 3 rows, each with 10 sessions, but the total row could contain 25 instead of 30 because the values are estimated. For more information, see the Google documentation.

  • Values are counted more than once, for example if a session bs more than one day, or a user visits more than one page in a single session.

As a result, the total that you see for these metrics in your Google Analytics Data (GA4) UI report may not match the data you see in Adverity. For more information, see the Google Analytics Data (GA4) documentation.
