Google Analytics Daily Limit Exceeded

Hi Community,

 

I have been getting Google analytics daily limit reached error since last 3-4 days. I have certainly nor reached any limits ( esp after PT midnight - as I get same error with any query - even for trying to connect to GA).

 

Anyone else also getting same error?

I have seen @carlito message, but thought to start a new thread so that its more visible as other thread is already 'solved'.

 

Edit:

I can access the API, and retrieve data from outside PBI (Python in my case)

Don't even let you connect to the source ie GA connector

 

Edit2: 13/03/2018

Worked fine for some time on 12th, ie yesterday, but again back to the error.

 

Edit 3: 14/03/2018

 Opened a ticket with microsoft

Regards

I still receive this  repeatedly (may be fixed during the same day, but re-shows again - almost every week).

Naturally, it is always there, when the moment is the worst.

They just hinted the status will be updated on 3/23. The same issue has been posted for a while since a week ago.
They updated this issue but only changed the updating time (3/19 -> 3/21 -> 3/23 this time), and keeps the same description.

HI @Leon,


Does this issue works now?

I also have that problem in the last days.

I wrote a script in google script that save the GA data into google spredsheet, from there I use some free service that sinc the files from google drive to one drive, and I read the data from the onedrive. its works great and I can finally use incremental loading in power BI

I am getting the same error, it used to let me update once early morning but now I cannot update at all.  The issue is with Power Bi and the GA API.

Same here - It worked on Monday - tested few times, all fine - back to square one today .

Should we be opening a ticket with Microsoft.

I have found a solution 😉

Forget the powerbi connector to google analytics, because it has this limit issue.

What I have done is open a new spreedsheet on google drive, and then I have installed the "google analytics" complement, which you can find on the Complement Menu (add new).

Run the complement, define the metrics and dimmensions you need, define a scheduled refresh and run the complement.

Once it is ready, go to File menu, publish to web as csv file, and insert in powerbi this URL (get data web).

That´s it, the data is refreshed via google drive, and powerbi gets the data from this file 😉

Hope it helps!!

I have the same problem.

 

I can't refresh GA data in Power BI Desktop. (Using default connector)

 

Obs: GA data at Power BI cloud are refreshing normally.
