Google Search Console connector reference

Important

This feature is in Beta. Workspace admins can control access to this feature from the Previews page. See Manage Azure Databricks previews.

This page has reference information for the managed Google Search Console connector, including supported source tables and destination table schemas.

Supported source tables

The Google Search Console connector supports 14 source tables under the default source schema, organized into two categories:

  • Site tables: metadata about your verified Google Search Console properties and their sitemaps. Fully refreshed on every pipeline run.
  • Search performance report tables: click, impression, CTR, and position metrics from the Google Search Console Search Analytics API. Each table represents a different dimension slice of the same underlying data. Incrementally synced by date or hour.

Note

The Google Search Console connector does not yet support custom search analytics report tables. If you need a dimension combination not covered by the prebuilt tables, reach out to your Databricks account team.

Site tables

These tables contain metadata about your verified Google Search Console properties. They do not contain search performance metrics and are fully refreshed on every pipeline run.

Source table Primary key Description Sync mode
sites site_url Verified site properties registered in Google Search Console, including permission level. Full refresh only
sitemaps site_url, path Sitemaps submitted to Google Search Console for each verified property. Full refresh only

Search performance report tables

These tables contain click, impression, CTR, and position data from the Google Search Console Search Analytics API. All tables are incrementally synced.

Each table returns the same four metrics (clicks, impressions, ctr, and position), but differs in which dimensions the data is aggregated on and which aggregationType Google applies before returning results.

Understanding aggregation type

The aggregationType controls how Google deduplicates clicks when a URL appears in multiple search result types. Because each type deduplicates differently, click totals across tables with different aggregation types do not match each other or the Google Search Console UI for the same date range. For details, see the Google Search Console API documentation.

Daily search performance tables

These tables aggregate search performance data by calendar day. The cursor field is date.

search_analytics_site_report_by_site date, country, device byProperty web, news, image, video site_url, date, country, device, search_type date

Hourly search performance tables

These tables aggregate search performance data by hour. They always use the hourly_all data state and are not affected by the data_state connector option. The cursor field is hour. Available search types are limited to web and googleNews.

Source table Dimensions Aggregation type Search types Primary key Cursor field
hourly_search_analytics_page_report hour, country, device, page auto web, googleNews site_url, hour, country, device, page, search_type hour
hourly_search_analytics_site_report_by_page hour, country, device byPage web, googleNews site_url, hour, country, device, search_type hour

Connector options

The Google Search Console connector supports the following configuration options. See Examples for usage.

Option Type Scope Required Applies to Description
site_urls JSON array of strings Pipeline Yes All tables One or more verified Google Search Console property URLs to ingest. Each URL must be a property you have verified in Google Search Console (for example, https://example.com/ or sc-domain:example.com).
start_date String (yyyy-MM-dd) Pipeline No All incremental tables (search_analytics_*, hourly_search_analytics_*) Earliest date from which to ingest data, in yyyy-MM-dd format. Defaults to 500 days before the first sync. Has no effect on sites or sitemaps (full refresh).
data_state String Table No Daily search performance tables only (search_analytics_*) Data freshness for daily search performance tables. all (default) includes finalized and fresh data. final includes finalized data only. Set it only on search_analytics_* objects. The sites, sitemaps, and hourly_search_analytics_* tables do not accept this option.
