Creating Google Analytics data set
To make Google Analytics cost import ready for work you need to create a dataset which SegmentStream will use to store imported cost data. Below are the steps that explain how to do this.

-
In the Admin section, select the account and property you want to import data to and select Data Import:
-
Click Create to create a new Data Set:
-
Select Data Set type as Cost Data and click Continue:
- Enter the Data Set Name and choose the Enabled Views. Cost data will be available only for the selected views:
Note: If you want to import your ad cost data to several views at once, you need to select these views while creating the data set. Note that SegmentStream will use the first view in the list to determine the cost data currency. This currency will be used to convert all cost data for all selected views.
- Choose all the dimensions and metrics as shown in the screenshot, select Import Behavior as Overwrite and click Save:
