Google Analytics version 3 has been shut down and will be deleted on June, 30th 2024. GA3-exporter is the fastest and easiest way to save your data before you lose access. Export comprehensive reports to back-up your business' history and enable future analyses. PDF, Excel and BigQuery exports available.
Google has shut down the Universal Analytics API on June 30th, 2024. So no data can be exported from Universal Analytics anymore. This platforms stays active for existing customers to download their exports within the 30 days retention period. Thanks everyone for using GA3-exporter.
Universal Analytics, also known as Google Analytics 3 (GA3), has stopped collecting data as of July 1st 2023. You should download your data now because:
Export your data in a few clicks in just a couple of minutes. Google and other tools require you to define dimensions and metrics of the individual reports which requires knowledge and takes hours or even days.
Choose to export your GA3 data to a beautiful PDF report for visual insights, Excel for own analyses and/or BigQuery to integrate with your data infrastructure. Other tools usually only provide one of these options.
With the experience of our web analytics experts we pre-defined what data should be exported. Download extensive data sets and reports to cover most marketing use cases and future analyses.

GA3-exporter is built by 9 friendly white rabbits. We are a Berlin based Data Consultancy with 10+ years of Google Analytics experience. Our app has passed the official verification process to access data in Google Analytics.
GA3-exporter will provide a ZIP-file with approximately 20 Excel sheets covering a wide range of Google Analytics dimensions and metrics at monthly granularity covering most marketing analytics use-cases. For reports stored in pre-aggregated format in Google Analytics, the exports will contain data for the full historic time range available in Google Analytics. For more detailed data sets, only the time range defined in the retention period in your Google Analytics property is available.
Based on these data sets, a comprehensive, 10 to 30 pages PDF report (depending on your number of Goals) is created which allows you to easily dive into your business' history without wrangling any Excel data first.
Furthermore you will be able to export the data into your own Google BigQuery project which may allow an easier integration into your existing data landscape and perform more complex analysis and data exploration.
Some of these features are available in paid packages only.
After June 31st, 2024, Universal Analytics data will be deleted completely. So it’s the more than perfect time to download your GA3 data before you lose access. Please note that Google Analytics is already deleting data on a monthly basis according to your data retention settings. So don't wait too long!
No, the full reports of GA3-exporter only require a one-time payment. There is also a free (limited) package available.
No. First, because this is technically impossible as the Google Analytics API does not allow to download raw data for Standard properties (Free Google Analytics). It only allows to download aggregated reports where a limited number of dimensions and metrics are chosen. Note, also all other methods of downloading GA3/Universal Analytics data have the same limit.
Second, GA3-exporter also does not try to download as much as possible data. This is because it would involve thousands of possible combinations of dimensions and metrics which would be neither feasible nor useful. Instead we used the knowledge of our web analytics experts to define a most reasonable set of reports that cover most marketing analytics use cases for all kinds of businesses. Here you can see what is contained.
GA3-exporter will download the maximum date range possible which depends on the type of report. Google Analytics holds certain pre-aggregated reports with common dimensions and metrics. Those cover the whole date range of the property. GA3-exporter will download these as part of the "overview" reports. For detailed reports containing combinations of multiple dimensions as well as details on events, products, etc. only the time range defined in the data retention settings of your Google Analytics property (14, 26, 38 or 50 months or unlimited) will be available. This is because the Google Analytics API has to calculate those reports from RAW data which is automatically deleted by Google after the reention period.
Yes. This depends on the amount of data stored in your Google Analytics account and is a limitation of the Google Analytics API rather than of GA3-exporter. Sampling is generally not a big problem for the resulting report. It means that the report is based only on part of the data but is scaled such that the reported numbers approximately match reality. General tendencies and correlations in the data will be retained though numbers may deviate a bit. For some reports with a large number of rare items (e.g. lots of individual events) the precision of the report for these rare items will be decreased or they may not be shown (high cardinality issue). See here for more details on these limitations.
