About Google_analytics

Google_analytics is an MCP server for querying GA4 data, intended for users who need reports, real-time activity, and property field information. It supports both Pipeworx gateway connections and local stdio execution.

Key features

  1. 01Run reports by dimensions and metrics
  2. 02List accessible GA4 properties
  3. 03Check real-time user activity
  4. 04Discover dimension and metric metadata
  5. 05Gateway and local stdio modes

Use cases

  1. 01Aggregate website analytics over a date range
  2. 02Identify a property ID for reporting
  3. 03Check current active users in a GA4 property
  4. 04Find available report field names and types

MCP support

It exposes tools for querying GA4 properties, reports, real-time data, and metadata to MCP clients. It can connect through the Pipeworx gateway or run as a local stdio MCP server.

Configuration

Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.

Google Analytics MCP Pack

Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1879+ live data sources. This is an independent, unofficial integration — not affiliated with, endorsed by, or published by the upstream provider.

Tools

ToolDescription
ga_run_reportQuery GA4 analytics data by dimensions (e.g., "city", "pagePath") and metrics (e.g., "activeUsers", "sessions") for a date range. Returns aggregated data rows with dimension and metric values.
ga_list_propertiesList all GA4 properties you can access. Returns property IDs, names, creation dates, and account info. Use to find the property ID for ga_run_report queries.
ga_get_realtimeCheck live user activity in a GA4 property right now. Returns current active user count and real-time engagement metrics. Specify property ID (e.g., "123456789").
ga_get_metadataDiscover available dimensions and metrics for a GA4 property. Returns field names, descriptions, and data types to build accurate ga_run_report queries.

Quick Start

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "google_analytics": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/google_analytics/mcp"
    }
  }
}
What this endpoint actually serves

tools/list at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/google_analytics/mcp returns the tools in the table above plus the shared Pipeworx meta-tools — ask_pipeworx, discover_tools, search_within, remember/recall and the rest of the gateway-wide set. So the tool count you see is larger than this table: a single-pack endpoint currently lists roughly 30 shared tools alongside the pack's own. The connection's initialize response states its exact scope, and is the authoritative answer for a given day.

This is deliberate, not multiplexing by accident. The meta-tools are what let a scoped connection answer a question this pack does not cover — via ask_pipeworx, which routes across the whole catalog — without you adding a second MCP server. There is currently no way to mount a pack endpoint without them; if the extra schemas cost you more context than the routing is worth, connect to the full gateway once rather than to several pack endpoints.

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway to get every pack's tools listed directly, instead of just this one's:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pipeworx": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Both URLs reach the same gateway and the same 1879+ data sources. The only difference is which pack's tools are listed directly; ask_pipeworx reaches all of them from either one.

No MCP client? Call it over HTTP

This pack runs against a connected google_analytics account, so it needs a Pipeworx key: sign in at https://pipeworx.io/account, connect google_analytics, then call POST https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/ga_run_report with Authorization: Bearer <your Pipeworx key>. Inspect any tool: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/ga_run_report. Find one: POST https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/search_packs with {"query":"..."}.

Standalone (no gateway account)

This package also runs as a local stdio MCP server — no Pipeworx account, no gateway round-trip:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "google_analytics": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@pipeworx/mcp-google_analytics"]
    }
  }
}

Or run it directly to confirm it starts:

npx -y @pipeworx/mcp-google_analytics

It speaks MCP over stdin/stdout and answers initialize/tools/list/tools/call for only this pack's tools — none of the shared meta-tools the gateway connection above adds. Same source, same tools, no ask_pipeworx routing.

Using with ask_pipeworx

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English — this works on the pack endpoint above as well as on the full gateway:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Google_analytics data" })

The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.

New to MCP?

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
