docs/source-ga4-bigquery: New connector documentation#2933
Merged
Conversation
Adds new connector documentation for source-ga4-bigquery, a dedicated connector for GA4 BigQuery export datasets. This replaces the old "Google Analytics 4 BigQuery Native" capture documentation, which amounted to "here's how to set up the whole GA4->BigQuery linkage and how the BigQuery batch connector works, good luck!" The problem with that approach is that it didn't work very well, and that's the reason we needed to implement this as a custom connector in the first place, so the old documentation should probably just be deleted.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Thanks! One minor suggestion. And I updated the docs redirect to point to the new connector so anyone looking to use GA4 BigQuery using the old /bigquery-ga4-native link will get directed to the improved process (the /google-analytics-4-bigquery-native slug was in use for such a short time I don't think we need to add another redirect for it; it had only been changed to group it with other Google connectors).
Other than that, LGTM!
