Overview
Google Analytics MCP Server
This GA4 MCP server exposes 6 tools for querying and exploring Google Analytics 4 data, with built-in defenses against common LLM mistakes - schema hallucination correction, legacy metric-name auto-aliasing, server-side aggregation, and a row-count guard against context overflow. Use it for reliable AI-assisted GA4 reporting; requires a Google Cloud service account with Viewer access on the target GA4 property before it will work.
What it does
This server connects Google Analytics 4 data to AI agents and MCP runtimes across Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor, VS Code, and OpenClaw, giving models analysis-ready GA4 access. It exposes 6 tools: get_ga4_data (executes GA4 queries with dimensions, metrics, date ranges, and optional filters), search_schema (keyword search across 200+ GA4 dimension and metric API names), get_property_schema (all available dimensions/metrics for your specific property), list_metric_categories and list_dimension_categories (browse metrics by category like User/Session/Revenue/Event, or dimensions by Geography/Traffic Source/Device), and get_troubleshooting_guide (a self-healing guide for IAM permissions, setup, and filter syntax).
Several features specifically target the ways LLMs tend to get GA4 queries wrong: system directives intercept schema hallucinations - such as guessing legacy metric names or incorrect filter nesting - and guide the model to self-correct via get_troubleshooting_guide; metric auto-aliasing automatically maps common LLM phrasing like conversions to the current GA4 name keyEvents, avoiding needless query failures; server-side aggregation computes property totals dynamically for non-time-series questions so the model doesn't have to parse raw rows itself; and a data-volume guard runs a quick row-count estimate before executing large queries (over 2,500 rows) to avoid overwhelming the model's context window.
When to use - and when NOT to
Use it when you want an AI assistant to answer GA4 reporting questions directly - traffic by channel, conversion trends, revenue by segment - without you writing GA4 API calls by hand or worrying that the model will guess a metric name that no longer exists. It's built specifically to compensate for the ways models commonly get GA4's schema wrong.
Don't expect it to work without both Google Cloud and GA4-side setup: a service account with the Google Analytics Data API enabled and a downloaded JSON key, plus that service account's email granted the Viewer role in the target GA4 property's Property Access Management settings.
Capabilities
Anonymous usage telemetry is collected by default to improve the server - explicitly no personal data and no GA4 report data - and can be disabled with DISABLE_TELEMETRY=1 or DO_NOT_TRACK=1. It ships as native packages across PyPI, npm, Gemini CLI, Smithery, OpenClaw, and OpenAPI REST actions.
How to install
The universal one-line installer auto-detects your system and configures Gemini CLI, Claude Desktop, Cursor, and VS Code in one step:
curl -fsSL https://ga4.builditwithai.xyz | bash
Alternatives include Homebrew (brew tap surendranb/tap && brew install google-analytics-mcp), npx/Node.js for Claude Code/Cursor/VS Code/Windsurf, a Gemini CLI extension install command, and Python via uvx or a direct python -m ga4_mcp. All manual configurations need GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS (path to the service account JSON key) and GA4_PROPERTY_ID set as environment variables.
Who it's for
Marketers and analysts who want an AI assistant to answer GA4 questions reliably, without the query failures and hallucinated metric names that come from LLMs guessing at GA4's schema.
