[GA4] Reports in the Analytics app

This article describes the reports that are available in the Analytics app.

Google Analytics 4

Note: The Analytics app supports the dimensions and metrics found in the Analytics Data API. Make sure you only include these dimensions and metrics in your reports.

Home

The Home page surfaces information that's relevant to you based on your behavior in Analytics. You can use the page to monitor traffic, navigate around Analytics, and get insights about your websites and mobile apps. The Home page provides more personalized content as you continue to use Analytics.

The Home page lets you see:

  • An overview of metrics that are relevant to you with a trendline for each metric
  • A realtime card that shows you activity as it happens using data from the Realtime report
  • Recently viewed section that provides links to parts of your Analytics account that you visited most recently
  • Because you view frequently section that shows cards that you view often, even if you haven't viewed them recently

Realtime

The Realtime report lets you monitor user activity as it happens. This report displays data seconds after an interaction and is updated continuously, so you can see how many users you have right now and how they're engaging with your content. Learn more about Realtime
