How To Set Up Data Blending With Google Data Studios
22 July 2018 | 1 comments | Posted by Che Kohler in nichemarket Advice
If you've followed our blog, previously you'll know we're pretty big fans of Google Data Studios and its ability to help us present data and create dynamic reports for clients and digital trend analysis in general.
Google Data Studios (GDS) saves us a tonne of time and helps you get into the nitty-gritty without having to spend hours configuring the perfect spreadsheet.
However, one thing GDS lacked was the ability to view and compare data across sources. Creating reports using multiple data sources has been one area of frustration for digital marketers and data analysts looking to evaluate trends and create more holistic visual representations of company data, and so far we've been forced to develop massive Google Sheets and extracting data the old fashioned way, well until now that is.
Data blending is now available in Data Studio! One of the most heavily requested features just launched and truly enhances the power of Data Studio that much more. If you ever wanted to combine multiple Google Analytics Views or join Google Analytics with Salesforce or Facebook data directly in Data Studio?
Well wait no more, you can now combine multiple data sources directly in the Data Studio UI and visualise your results in one single chart.
Create a blended data source
Add data sources to an existing chart
This option lets you blend new data into an existing single data source chart.- Edit your report.
- Add a chart or selecting an existing unblended chart.
- On the right, in the Data source section of the DATA properties panel, click the small blue +. This opens the Blend Data panel.
- Configure the blended data source.
Create a blended data source from a selection of charts
- Edit your report.
- Select up to 5 charts.
- The charts you select can't already have blended data sources attached.The chart you select first will become the leftmost chart in the blending panel.
- The charts you select can't already have blended data sources attached.
- Right-click the selected charts.
- Select Blend data. This opens the Blend Data panel.
- Configure the blended data source.
