Replicate Multiple Google Analytics Accounts
Replicate multiple Google Analytics accounts to one or many databases.
CData Sync for Google Analytics is a stand-alone application that provides solutions for a variety of replication scenarios such as replicating sandbox and production instances into your database. Both Sync for Windows and Sync for Java include a command-line interface (CLI) that makes it easy to manage multiple Google Analytics connections. In this article we show how to use the CLI to replicate multiple Google Analytics accounts.
Configure Google Analytics Connections
You can save connection and email notification settings in an XML configuration file. To replicate multiple Google Analytics accounts, use multiple configuration files. Below is an example configuration to replicate Google Analytics to SQLite:
Windows
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<CDataSync>
<DatabaseType>SQLite</DatabaseType>
<DatabaseProvider>System.Data.SQLite</DatabaseProvider>
<ConnectionString>Profile=MyProfile;</ConnectionString>
<ReplicateAll>False</ReplicateAll>
<NotificationUserName></NotificationUserName>
<DatabaseConnectionString>Data Source=C:\my.db</DatabaseConnectionString>
<TaskSchedulerStartTime>09:51</TaskSchedulerStartTime>
<TaskSchedulerInterval>Never</TaskSchedulerInterval>
</CDataSync>
Java
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<CDataSync>
<DatabaseType>SQLite</DatabaseType>
<DatabaseProvider>org.sqlite.JDBC</DatabaseProvider>
<ConnectionString>Profile=MyProfile;</ConnectionString>
<ReplicateAll>False</ReplicateAll>
<NotificationUserName></NotificationUserName>
<DatabaseConnectionString>Data Source=C:\my.db</DatabaseConnectionString>
</CDataSync>
Google uses the OAuth authentication standard. To access Google APIs on behalf on individual users, you can use the embedded credentials or you can register your own OAuth app.
OAuth also enables you to use a service account to connect on behalf of users in a Google Apps domain. To authenticate with a service account, you will need to register an application to obtain the OAuth JWT values.
In addition to the OAuth values, set Profile to the profile you want to connect to. This can be set to either the Id or website URL for the Profile. If not specified, the first Profile returned will be used.
Configure Queries for Each Google Analytics Instance
Sync enables you to control replication with standard SQL. The REPLICATE statement is a high-level command that caches and maintains a table in your database. You can define any SELECT query supported by the Google Analytics API. The statement below caches and incrementally updates a table of Google Analytics data:
REPLICATE Traffic;
You can specify a file containing the replication queries you want to use to update a particular database. Separate replication statements with semicolons. The following options are useful if you are replicating multiple Google Analytics accounts into the same database:
You can use a different table prefix in the REPLICATE SELECT statement:
REPLICATE PROD_Traffic SELECT * FROM Traffic
Alternatively, you can use a different schema:
REPLICATE PROD.Traffic SELECT * FROM Traffic
Run Sync
After you have configured the connection strings and replication queries, you can run Sync with the following command-line options:
Windows
GoogleAnalyticsSync.exe -g MyProductionGoogleAnalyticsConfig.xml -f MyProductionGoogleAnalyticsSync.sql
Java
java -Xbootclasspath/p:c:\sqlitejdbc.jar -jar GoogleAnalyticsSync.jar -g MyProductionGoogleAnalyticsConfig.xml -f MyProductionGoogleAnalyticsSync.sql
