Overview
What Google Analytics is
Google Analytics turns implemented events into reports about users, traffic, and engagement. The Data API supports programmatic reporting. AI can help explore those results, but event definitions, consent, attribution scope, and reporting windows determine what the analysis can legitimately conclude.
For a first workflow, set the property, event definition, timezone, and reporting window. Fetch the relevant dimensions and metrics through the interface or API. Reconcile totals and distinguish behavioral events from confirmed business outcomes.
