Damn sorry about the broken link will fix that.
GA datasource is most primitive today, only supports unique pageviews. An expanded one is being built currently, will be out in a few weeks.
Could you share a bit more on #3?

#3 was more driven by my frustration with GA. It wasn't clear if GA is limited as a datasource or feature limited by free/paid tier.
I'd suggest removing GA from the site as a feature or calling out the current limitations more clearly. While I could go get data out of BigQuery, that's more of a lift and the ease of using this to import GA for clients is a major draw.
Thanks for the quick response and I'm looking forward to using it more.

Ah got it - yeah our free plan is very generous. Only limitations are 3 editors, scheduled queries, and saved queries. It can do everything else. Keep an eye out for updated GA in next few weeks.
1. I want to add GA as a datasource but I'm stuck on unique page views and can't seem to change anything outside of the date range
2. The help center article on GA has a broken link: https://help.equals.app/en/articles/6584898-add-a-google-ana...
3. The UX is a bit unclear and the upgrade path isn't straightforwardly accessible for a free user in the workflow.
I'm glad you launched and I'm looking forward to using it. Hit me up if you need more feedback.
