Google Analytics 4 MCP server
Prebuilt SnapLogic agentic-tool pipelines that let an LLM read from and act on Google Analytics 4, callable as MCP tools via Pipeline Execute. Published in the SnapLogic pattern catalog.
Overview
This tool pack gives an agent access to Google Analytics 4: browse accounts and properties, discover available metrics and dimensions, and run historical or real-time reports. The report tools accept any metrics and dimensions the property supports, so one connected account can answer a wide range of traffic and engagement questions.
For setup instructions, see SnapLogic MCP Server quickstart.

Set up the MCP Server tools
- Download ga4_tools.zip.
- In SnapLogic Designer, open the target project space (or create one), then choose Import Project / Import Pipelines and select the downloaded ga4_tools.zip. Designer unpacks each pipeline into the project.
- Attach the required account to the connectivity snaps (see Connection Setup).
- Expose the project as an MCP server — each pipeline becomes a tool named after its label. New to this? Start with the MCP quickstart, then use the MCP Server Pipeline Builder to generate the server from the imported pipelines.
Configure account
Attach a Google Analytics account (service account or OAuth 2.0) to the Google Analytics snaps in Designer after import.
These pipelines ship without credentials by design — attach a valid account in Designer before the tools will execute.
See the SnapLogic account documentation for this connector: Snaps Accounts.Html.
