You need to do the following things:
- Create a Syntasa service account
- Create an account in GA for the service account
- Provide the service account rights the following permissions in GA:
Instructions for creating service account in GCP:
- Login to GCP
- Select the appropriate project
- Search for “Service account” in the top search bar
- Select “Service accounts IAM & Admin” in the drop down
- Click the top button to create service account
- On the 'Service account details' screen:
- Provide descriptive name (i.e. syntasa-ga)
- Service account ID (i.e. syntasa-sg@<default iam domain>) recommended to keep the ID Google suggests
- Service account description: Service account for Google Analytics access)
- Ensure the account is set to active
- Create a key, a key file will be downloaded. Keep this key file as it will be needed for the app to make the GA API connection.
