Hi all,

 

Is there a way to display the Shopify Sessions data on a Looker Studio report?

 

I've looked at connectors like SuperMetrics, which can display orders and customers, but can't find one to display the sessions.

 

Is there an alternative method, such as using and API?

Hi @FirstMatsUK 

Sorry for NOT answering your question. I am looking into a connector myself actually and I was wondering if you are still using the SuperMetrics setup or whether you've moved on.

From the research I've conducted so far, connecting Shopify to Looker Studio is more tedious than any other source I've tried.

True statement of am I missing something?

If it ain't broke, don't fix it

I'd like to do the same. Have you successfully done that?

So far, no luck.

 

I saw a Supermetrics FAQ that said it isn't possible to extract session data. The linkers are built around things like number of orders and customers.

 

The only way I'm getting around this is by manually punching in the number into a Google Sheet every day and then linking that to DataStudio. It's not ideal, but only takes about a minute each day so not a big problem at the moment.
