Template: Automated GA4 Dashboard in Google Sheets
Google Analytics (GA4) is an essential tool for every marketer. Rare is the marketing initiative that doesn’t involve data from this popular tool at some point in the process. But while it’s great at collecting and aggregating the data you need, it’s not always the best way to share that data across the team or even with other departments. A well-built spreadsheet report is usually best, but manually transferring and updating data any time a report a due can slow down your reporting cycle significantly.
That’s where Unito’s integration for GA4 and Google Sheets comes in. It takes just a few minutes to set up, and then it automatically exports data from GA4 to Google Sheets, automatically keeping it all up to date whenever that data changes. But what do you do with it once it’s in Google Sheets?
With this template from Unito, you don’t even have to think about it. Here’s how you can combine this purpose-built report with a Unito integration for up-to-date GA4 data wherever you need it.

Step-by-step instructions for setting up a Unito flow
This template is pre-formatted to turn Google Analytics data into a powerful website performance dashboard built right into a spreadsheet. It works best when you use Unito to feed that data into Google Sheets automatically.
Step 1: Connect GA4 and Google Sheets to Unito and pick your blocks of work
You can connect both Google Analytics and Google Sheets using your Google account. You’ll then need to choose the account that will sync information across and the property you want to sync it from. From there, make sure to do the following:
- Select Date, Session source, Session medium, Campaign, Landing page, and Country ID as GA4 Dimensions.
- Select Active users, Sessions, Total users, Engaged sessions, Conversions, and Total Revenue as GA4 Metrics.
- Choose a predefined or custom GA4 Date Range.
- Select “Raw Data” as your desired Google Sheets sheet by pasting the URL.

Step 2: Add rules (optional)
Rules let you customize how much information is synced from Google Analytics to Google Sheets. You could filter out rows with Dimensions that don’t match a specific value or Metrics that are less than a certain amount. You can also limit the number of rows you sync overall.
Step 3: Map your fields
Field mappings allow you to match columns in Google Analytics with those in Google Sheets so your data always ends up in the right place.
Step 4: Launch your flow!
After mapping your fields, you’re good to go! Now just sit back and watch as rows from Google Analytics are synced to your report in Sheets.
