The new GA4 connector for the GA4 Export does not currently include the `collected_traffic_source` fields.

Please can these be included in the extract. This will enable us to better make use of the fields for monitoring marketing performance.

Hi Ben,

We added the collected_traffic_source fields to our GA4 Export connector schema. You can see our changelog entry here and our updated ERD here. I'll mark this feature request as completed.

Cheers,
Luke

Hi Ben,

Luke from the Product team here. Thanks for submitting this feature request and pointing out that we are missing the collected_traffic_source fields in our GA4 Export connector. I'll add that to the backlog.

You mentioned our GA4 connector too. Can you please clarify what fields are missing in that connector and link to Google's GA4 Data API docs? I checked the list of traffic source-related metrics here and it looks like all of them are available when building custom reports with our GA4 connector.

Cheers,
Luke
