How to connect Google Analytics 4 to Orchly
Connect a GA4 property to combine traffic and conversion data with your Search Console keywords inside Orchly.
Search Console tells you what people searched to find you. Google Analytics 4 tells you what they did after they arrived: sessions, users, conversions, and revenue. Connecting GA4 puts that next to your keyword data so you can see the full journey from search to sale.
This takes a couple of minutes. You sign in with Google, then pick the GA4 property you want this workspace to track.
A Google account with access to the GA4 property you want to track. If you can open the property in Google Analytics today, you can connect it here.
Step 1: Open the integration
Go to Settings, then the Integrations tab, find Google Analytics, and click Connect.
Step 2: Sign in with Google
Orchly sends you to Google to sign in and approve access. This is a full-page redirect rather than a popup, so do not be surprised when the whole tab changes. After you approve, Google sends you back to Orchly.
The connection is read-only. Orchly reads your analytics reports. It never changes your GA4 configuration or sends data back into Google Analytics.
Step 3: Pick your property
Back in Orchly, a window titled Finish connecting Google Analytics appears. It asks you to choose the GA4 property to track for this workspace, which is required before any data can sync.
- Open the Select a property dropdown.
- Choose the property that matches this workspace’s website.
- Click Finish setup.
Orchly saves that property and immediately starts backfilling your recent history. You do not need to keep the tab open.
What GA4 adds to Orchly
Once it syncs, your analytics data shows up alongside your search data, with period-over-period comparisons. You get metrics like:
| Metric | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Sessions and users | How much traffic you are getting, and from how many people |
| New users | How many are first-time visitors |
| Conversions and conversion rate | How often visits turn into the actions you care about |
| Revenue | The money tied to those conversions |
| Engagement rate | How engaged visitors are once they land |
Managing the connection
From Settings → Integrations, the Google Analytics card shows a Connected badge once it is live. Its menu lets you View Details, Reconnect if access lapses, or Disconnect.
GA4 pairs best with Search Console. Together they show both the search that brought someone in and what they did next. See connect Google Search Console.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | What to check |
|---|---|
| Your property is not in the list | You signed in with a Google account that lacks access to it. Reconnect with the right account, or ask an admin to grant you access in Google Analytics. |
| No data after connecting | The first backfill takes a few minutes. Brand-new properties also have little history to pull. |
| Numbers look off | Make sure you selected the property for this workspace’s site, not a different one on the same Google account. |
