Developer feature requests
Do you have a feature request for Google Analytics developer features including Data API, Admin API, Measurement Protocol, or BigQuery Export? If so, we'd like to hear from you!
Your issue will be closed without further interaction if you submit any of the following:
- A bug report.
- A feature request for the GA UI.
- Questions around the GA UI or developer features.
- A feature request without all the requested information.
Before filing a new feature request, see if it already exists in the issue tracker. If an issue matching your request already exists, click the +1 button in the upper right corner of the issue to let us know you're interested. You can also add a comment with any additional information.
If your feature request isn't already covered, submit a new feature request. Make sure you provide all of the requested information.
While we intend to take developer feedback into consideration, don't expect direct engagement from us on this tracker. Not all feature requests are accepted.
Problems and errors
If you're encountering an error with the API, search the Analytics Developer Documentation, or post on either the Google Analytics Stack Overflow or Google Analytics Discord group. Try to isolate the problem as much as possible, and post only the relevant code and API calls.
Issues with the Google Analytics APIs
I'm receiving an error from the API, having trouble making API calls, or have a general API question.
If using a client library, try calling the API directly by using the
Try it! button (aka API Explorer) on the reference documentation page for
the API method you are experiencing an issue with (for example,
runReport).
Fill out the support form. If possible, provide screenshots of the Google Analytics frontend and the Google Analytics API request and response logs, along with the detail of the problem you're experiencing.
Client library specific issues
- I have an issue related to a client library for the Google Analytics APIs rather
- than the APIs itself
Refer to the Issues section in each individual client library GitHub repository:
