Google Analytics

Data Connection Manager

The Google Analytics tool supports Data Connection Manager for an easier and a safer storage of your credentials. Create a connection to Google Analytics and easily reuse the stored credentials in workflows that include the Google Analytics tool. Alteryx Server requires stored credentials to successfully run the published workflows.
