Python connectivity with Google Analytics

Full-featured and consistent SQL access to any supported data source through Python


Connecting to Google Analytics with Python

CData Python Connectors leverage the Database API (DB-API) interface to make it easy to work with Google Analytics from a wide range of standard Python data tools. Connecting to and working with your data in Python follows a basic pattern, regardless of data source:

  • Configure the connection properties to Google Analytics
  • Query Google Analytics to retrieve or update data
  • Connect your Google Analytics data with Python data tools.


Connecting to Google Analytics in Python

To connect to your data from Python, import the extension and create a connection:

Once you import the extension, you can work with all of your enterprise data using the python modules and toolkits that you already know and love, quickly building apps that help you drive business.

import cdata.googleanalytics as mod
conn = mod.connect("[email protected]; Password=password;")

#Create cursor and iterate over results
cur = conn.cursor()
cur.execute("SELECT * FROM Traffic")
	
rs = cur.fetchall()
	
for row in rs:
print(row)
		
engine = create_engine("googleanalytics///Password=password&User=user")

df = pandas.read_sql("SELECT * FROM Traffic", engine)

df.plot()
plt.show()

Visualize Google Analytics Data with pandas

The data-centric interfaces of the Google Analytics Python Connector make it easy to integrate with popular tools like pandas and SQLAlchemy to visualize data in real-time.

AI-assisted development with CData CLI

Build Google Analytics integrations faster with AI that understands your schema

Schema-aware AI

CData CLI gives AI coding tools access to your Google Analytics schema. No more guessing table names or column types—AI sees the same metadata in your Python Connectors.

Your AI Knows SQL

How to find table names, column names, and how to generate SQL syntax are things that AI knows well from millions of training data. No need for customization, no hallucinations. Your AI acts like a domain specialist to Google Analytics.

More Accurate, More Token-Efficient

With CData CLI's queryable schema detection and highly efficient queries with filters, aggregation, joins with correct pushdown, your AI will achieve more accuracy with less token usage.
