Reports

[GA4] Queries report

The Queries report is a pre-made detail report that displays search queries and associated Search Console metrics for your linked Search Console property. You can drill deeper into the data by Search Console dimensions (but not by Analytics dimensions). The data can also be found in Search Console.

Search Console keeps data for the last 16 months. As a result, reports in Analytics also include a maximum of 16 months of data.

Search Console data is available in Search Console and in Analytics 48 hours after it is collected by Search Console.

The Search Console collection of reports is unpublished by default. You can find the collection under Library in the left navigation and publish it from there. Learn how to publish a collection.

  1. Open the Google Analytics mobile app.
  2. From the top left, tap Menu.
  3. In the Reports section, tap Search Console.
  4. Open the Queries tab.
Note: If you don't see the report and you are an Editor or Administrator, you can add the report using a desktop device.

Data availability

Your Search Console data becomes available in Analytics depending on when you create the web data stream and when you complete site verification in Search Console:

  • If you create the web data stream and then complete site verification, data is available from the time of site verification.
  • If you complete site verification and then create the web data stream, data is available from the date you create the data stream.

Be sure that your Google Analytics 4 property and your Search Console property are collecting data for the same set of web pages.

The Search Console reports display data from the web data stream you select when you create the link between Search Console and Analytics. If you delete the link and create a new one that uses a different web data stream, then all date ranges for reports will use the web stream you select for the new link.

Dimensions in the report

Search Console metrics are only compatible with Search Console dimensions and the following Analytics dimensions:

Dimension What it is How it's populated
Organic Google search query The query that triggered an impression. This metric requires an active Search Console link.
Country The country from which user activity originated. For example, if someone visits your website from the United States, the text 'United States' populates the dimension. This dimension is populated automatically.
Device category The type of device from which user activity originated. Device categories include 'desktop', 'mobile', and 'tablet'. This dimension is populated automatically.

Metrics in the report

The report includes the following metrics. If you are an Editor or Administrator, you can add or remove metrics in the report.

Dimension What it is How it's populated
Organic Google search clicks The number of organic Google Search clicks reported from Search Console. This metric requires an active Search Console link.
Organic Google search impressions The number of organic Google Search impressions reported from Search Console. This metric requires an active Search Console link.
Organic Google search click through rate

The organic Google Search click through rate reported from Search Console. Click through rate is clicks per impression.

This metric is returned as a fraction; for example, 0.0588 means about 5.88% of impressions resulted in a click.

This metric requires an active Search Console link.
Organic Google search average position

The average ranking of your website URLs for the query reported from Search Console.

For example, if your site's URL appears at position 3 for one query and position 7 for another query, the average position would be 5 (3+7/2).

This metric requires an active Search Console link.
