Hevo provides you with a few prebuilt reports for ease of configuration that you can use according to your requirements. It automatically identifies the metrics and dimensions based on the Google Analytics report that you select for replicating data to your desired Destination.

To configure prebuilt reports, specify the following:

• Report Name: A unique name for your report, not exceeding 30 characters.

• GA Account Name: The Google Analytics (GA) account from which you want to replicate the data. One Google account can contain multiple Analytics accounts.

• Property Name: The website, application, or entity for which user analytics data is to be read.

• View Name: The view on which reports must be accessed. Read Hierarchy of organizations, accounts, users, properties, and views to understand the Analytics account hierarchy.

• Prebuilt Report Name: The report whose data you want to replicate to the Destination.

  The Metrics and Dimensions for a prebuilt report are automatically configured by Hevo. Read Google Analytics Reports, Metrics, and Dimensions to know more about the various reports created by Hevo.

  Note: You cannot modify these metrics and dimensions. You must select Custom Reports if you want to select metrics and dimensions according to your requirements.

• Advanced Options: The metric or dimension filter clauses that you can apply to the reports to filter the data from these reports, and ingest only the required data. Read Google Analytics Filters to know more about metric and dimension filter clauses in Google Analytics.

• ADD ANOTHER REPORT (Optional): Use this option to add another prebuilt report or create another custom report whose data you want to replicate to the Destination.

Hevo allows you to create your own reports by choosing a valid combination of metrics and dimensions. You can manually select these metrics and dimensions in Hevo to replicate the data from these reports to your desired Destination.

To configure custom reports, specify the following:

• Report Name: A unique name for your report, not exceeding 30 characters.

• GA Account Name: The Google Analytics (GA) account from which you want to replicate the data. One Google account can contain multiple Analytics accounts.

• Property Name: The website, application, or entity for which user analytics data is to be read.

• View Name: The view on which reports must be accessed. Read Hierarchy of organizations, accounts, users, properties, and views to understand the Analytics account hierarchy.

• Metrics: The various parameters that enable you to quantitatively measure the data present in the view you selected above. For example, for a view named Website, the metrics can include number of viewers, new signups, number of clicks, and so on. Read Metrics to know about how metrics are calculated.

• Dimensions: The attributes or characteristics of your data based on the Metrics you selected above. For example, for a view Website, and the metric number of viewers, the dimensions can include past 7-day views, 14-day views, and so on. Read Dimensions to know about valid dimension-metric combinations.

  Note: Only the dimensions compatible with the metric selected above are available for selection. Refer to section, Source Considerations.

• Advanced Options: The metric or dimension filter clauses that you can apply to the reports to filter the data from these reports, and ingest only the required data. Read Google Analytics Filters to know more about metric and dimension filter clauses in Google Analytics.
