Google Analytics Admin API Updates: Expanded Data Sets, Access Bindings, Audiences

[Ilya Kuleshov]

On behalf of the Google Analytics team I would like to announce the following updates to the Google Analytics Admin API:

New functionality added to the Admin API v1 alpha.

• The ExpandedDataSet resource has been added to the v1 alpha version of the API, along with the corresponding properties.expandedDataSets.create, properties.expandedDataSets.delete, properties.expandedDataSets.patch, properties.expandedDataSets.list, properties.expandedDataSets.get operations. This functionality can be used for managing Expanded Data Sets in Google Analytics 360.

• The AccessBinding resource has been added to the v1 alpha version of the API, along with the following operations:

  • accounts.accessBindings.create

  • accounts.accessBindings.delete

  • accounts.accessBindings.patch

  • accounts.accessBindings.list

  • accounts.accessBindings.get

  • accounts.accessBindings.batchCreate

  • accounts.accessBindings.batchDelete

  • accounts.accessBindings.batchUpdate

  • accounts.accessBindings.batchGet

  • properties.accessBindings.create

  • properties.accessBindings.delete

  • properties.accessBindings.patch

  • properties.accessBindings.list

  • properties.accessBindings.get

  • properties.accessBindings.batchCreate

  • properties.accessBindings.batchDelete

  • properties.accessBindings.batchUpdate

  • properties.accessBindings.batchGet

This functionality allows managing user permissions for a GA4 account or property and should be used instead of User Links.

• The Audience resource has been added to the v1 alpha version of the API, along with the corresponding properties.audience.create, properties.audience.archive, properties.audience.patch, properties.audience.list, properties.audience.get operations.

This functionality allows managing audiences for a GA4 property.

Upcoming breaking changes to the Admin API v1 alpha:

• User Links functionality will be removed from the Admin API v1 alpha on 6/1/23.

• The following  user permissions audit operations are deprecated and will be removed from the Admin API v1alpha on 6/1/23:

  • accounts.userLinks.audit

  • properties.userLinks.audit
