Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, through Lemonado. Connect your GA4 property in Lemonado, add Lemonado as a remote connector in Perplexity, and Perplexity can find landing pages that leak paid traffic with your live data.

Not easily. Google publishes an open-source Google Analytics MCP server (googleanalytics/google-analytics-mcp on GitHub). It's free, read-only and labeled experimental. It runs locally and needs a Google Cloud project with the Analytics Admin and Data APIs turned on. Perplexity needs a remote server, so you'd have to host it yourself. Lemonado is already hosted: add one URL and sign in.

Open the Lemonado connector card and check it's switched on and signed in. Custom connectors need Perplexity Pro, Max or Enterprise. In Lemonado, check that Google Analytics is connected and External tools is on for the company. If numbers look low, check that you picked the GA4 property for the right site. GA4 can take a day or two to finish processing recent data.

Yes, if both are connected in Lemonado. One connection reaches every source you allow, so you can ask things like "Cost per GA4 conversion by channel, using Google Ads and Meta spend."

MCP is included in Lemonado's paid plans and in the free trial, so you can try it before you pay.
