It is designed for sites where: * the frontend is not rendered by WordPress * GA4 tracking already happens on the frontend * WordPress only needs to read and display GA4 reporting data for admins The plugin uses the Google Analytics Data API and a Google service account. It does not inject frontend tracking code. Features: * settings page for GA4 configuration * dashboard widget with core traffic metrics * last 7 days trend chart * top pages and top traffic sources * transient caching * manual refresh action ### Privacy Headless GA4 does not track visitors or inject analytics scripts. The plugin only sends server-side requests to Google when an administrator configures a GA4 property and opens the dashboard or tests the connection. Those requests use the service account credentials you provide in the plugin settings. ### External services This plugin connects to Google services to authenticate requests and fetch Google Analytics 4 report data. These requests are only made after an administrator configures the plugin and then opens the dashboard widget, refreshes the data, or uses the Test connection button. #### Google OAuth token service (`oauth2.googleapis.com`) Used to exchange the configured Google service account credentials for a short-lived access token. Data sent: a signed JWT assertion containing the service account email, requested scope, token endpoint, issued-at time, and expiration time. Terms of service: https://developers.google.com/terms Privacy policy: https://policies. google.com/privacy #### Google Analytics Data API (`analyticsdata.googleapis.com`) Used to request GA4 report data for the configured GA4 property. Data sent: the GA4 property ID, report request parameters such as date ranges, dimensions, metrics, and limits, plus the OAuth access token in the request headers. Terms of service: https://developers.google.com/terms Privacy policy: https://policies. google.com/privacy ## Instalación 1. Upload the `headless-ga4` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`. 2. Activate the plugin through the WordPress Plugins screen. 3. Go to `Settings > Headless GA4`. 4. Enter your GA4 property ID. 5. Paste your service account JSON credentials. 6. Save the settings. 7. Use the `Test connection` button. 8. Open the main Dashboard screen to view the widget. ## Preguntas frecuentes ### What is a service account? A service account is a Google Cloud machine identity used by the plugin to read your GA4 reporting data without requiring a human Google login inside wp-admin. ### Does this plugin install tracking on my site? No. This plugin only reads GA4 report data. Your frontend must already send data to GA4. ### What do I need from Google? You need: * a Google Cloud project * the Google Analytics Data API enabled * a service account * the full service account JSON credentials * Viewer access for that service account email in your GA4 property * your GA4 numeric property ID ### How do I set it up? 1. Create a Google Cloud project. 2. In Google Cloud Console, open `APIs & Services`, click `Enable APIs and Services`, search for `Google Analytics Data API`, open it, and click `Enable`. 3. Create a service account. 4. Open the service account, go to `Keys`, click `Add key`, choose `Create new key`, then select `JSON` and download the file. 5. Copy the service account email address. 6. In GA4, open `Admin`, then `Property access management`, add that service account email, and grant it `Viewer` access. 7. In GA4, open `Admin`, then `Property settings`, and copy the numeric `Property ID`. 8. Paste the property ID and the full service account JSON into the plugin settings. 9. Save the settings and test the connection. ### Why do I not see any data? Possible reasons: * the frontend is not sending GA4 events * the wrong property ID was entered * the service account email was not added in `GA4 > Admin > Property access management` * the service account JSON is invalid * the property has not received enough recent traffic ## Comentarios Non hai recensións para este plugin. ## Colaboradores e desenvolvedores “Headless GA4” é un software de código aberto.
