Connect YouTube Analytics to Power BI

Connect YouTube analytics to Power BI by following three simple steps:

Step 1: Collect data
First, connect your YouTube account. Next, specify the channel you wish to export data from, the reporting period, and the metrics required.



After that, proceed to the next step.

Step 2: Organize and transform
Before you load YouTube analytics to Power BI, preview your data to confirm that it's accurate. If some transformations are needed, here's what you can do:

• Edit, rearrange, hide, or add columns.
• Apply various filters and sort your data.
• Create new columns with custom formulas.
• Combine data from multiple accounts or apps.

This ensures that your dataset is ready for analysis immediately after importing.



When you finish that, go next to configure the destination settings.

Step 3: Load and automate
To finish data import from YouTube analytics to Power BI, follow the in-app instructions to generate the integration URL and paste it into the Power BI desktop application.



Afterward, activate automatic data updates and choose the interval that suits you. Lastly, save and run the importer.

Turn on automated refresh to ensure your imported data stays time-relevant. The main thing to do is to select how often you want updates – choices range from monthly to even every 30 or 15 minutes. To customize your data refresh even more, specify days, times, and your preferred time zone.
