How to connect it
You connect with a Google service account you share your property with. It takes a few minutes.
- In your MCP Analytics account, open Connectors and choose Google Analytics 4. The setup form opens there.
- Go to Google Cloud Console > IAM & Admin > Service Accounts
- Create a service account (or select an existing one)
- Click Keys > Add Key > Create new key > JSON
- Download the .json key file
- In GA4, go to Admin > Property Access Management and add the service account email as Viewer
- In the same Cloud project enable the Google Analytics Data API. If key creation is blocked, your organization policy iam.disableServiceAccountKeyCreation is on (it is on by default for organizations created on or after May 3, 2024) and an admin must allow it.

We test the connection before we save it, so you know right away if a step was missed.
What we keep, and how to disconnect
We keep the key or login you give us, encrypted, and use it only to read the data you ask about. Other accounts cannot see your connections. To stop, open Connectors in your account and choose Remove on the Google Analytics 4 row; that deletes the saved key. You can also cancel the key in Google Analytics 4 itself.
