mcp-ga4

MCP server for Google Analytics 4 -- run reports, realtime data, custom dimensions, and property management via Claude.

Features

• 9 tools covering reporting, realtime data, custom dimensions/metrics, data streams, and feedback
• Two configuration modes: single-property (env vars) and multi-client (config.json)
• Supports both service account and OAuth credentials
• Relative date support (today, yesterday, 7daysAgo, 30daysAgo, 90daysAgo)
• Built on official Google SDKs with resilience patterns

Installation

npm install mcp-ga4

Or clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/mharnett/mcp-ga4.git
cd mcp-ga4
npm install
npm run build

Configuration

Security: Never share your .mcp.json file or commit it to git -- it may contain API credentials. Add .mcp.json to your .gitignore.

Mode 1: Single Property (env vars)

Set environment variables to connect to a single GA4 property:

GA4_PROPERTY_ID=123456789
GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=/path/to/service-account.json

Mode 2: Multi-Client (config.json)

Create a config.json in the project root to map multiple GA4 properties to project directories. The server auto-detects which property to use based on the caller's working directory.

Common Query Patterns

Top pages: dimensions=pagePath, metrics=screenPageViews, order_by=screenPageViews

Traffic sources: dimensions=sessionSource,sessionMedium, metrics=sessions,totalUsers

Daily trend: dimensions=date, metrics=sessions,totalUsers

Campaign performance: dimensions=sessionCampaignName, metrics=sessions,conversions

Device breakdown: dimensions=deviceCategory, metrics=sessions,totalUsers

Tools

Date Formats

Use YYYY-MM-DD for absolute dates, or these relative shortcuts:

• today
• yesterday
• 7daysAgo
• 30daysAgo
• 90daysAgo

Common Dimensions and Metrics

Dimensions: date, dateHour, eventName, pagePath, pageTitle, sessionSource, sessionMedium, sessionCampaignName, country, city, deviceCategory, browser, operatingSystem, landingPage, pageReferrer, newVsReturning, firstUserSource, firstUserMedium, firstUserCampaignName

Metrics: sessions, totalUsers, newUsers, activeUsers, screenPageViews, eventCount, conversions, e
