Accessing Google Analytics 4 BigQuery data using Python
How do I access GA4 big query data using python? There is a section in the following article -http://googleanalytics4.co/data-science/accessing-google-analytics-4-bigquery-data-using-python/#ga4-connect-using-python that explains. It says # 1. Import necessary libraries to connect to google BigQuery and get Query results in pandas
import os
import pandas as pd
from google.cloud import bigquery. Question is how do I do this and where do I need to go to do this? Can anyone take a look and please let me know? Thanks! -

To connect to BigQuery using Python, you will need to start with an IDE e.g. Pycharm or Visual Studio Code.Assuming no prior programming experience, you can begin by :
- Download Pycharm or any other IDE of your choice.
- Write a simple Hello World program to make sure that your configuration is correct.
- Enable BigQuery API and create credentials
- Copy and paste the code from the article you referred with your own credentials.
Let me know if you get stuck.
