# 12 - Ingest & Analyze Google Analytics data in Adobe Experience Platform with the BigQuery Source Co **Authors:** [**Victor de la Iglesia**](https://www.linkedin.com/in/victordelaiglesia/)**,** [**Wouter Van Geluwe**](https://www.linkedin.com/in/woutervangeluwe/) In this module, you'll set up your own instance of Google Cloud Platform, load sample data in Google Cloud Platform and you'll then use the BigQuery Source Connector to ingest that data from Google Cloud Platform into Adobe Experience Platform. Finally, you'll use Customer Journey Analytics to visualize that data. Source connectors in Adobe Experience Platform make the process of getting data into Adobe Experience Platform easy. Google BigQuery is one of the already available connectors. Thanks to Adobe Experience Platform and the BigQuery Source Connector we can now bring Google Analytics data into Analysis Workspace in Customer Journey Analytics. In addition, we can enrich that Google Analytics data by joining it with other data sources such as CRM, Call Center or Loyalty data within Customer Journey Analytics. ## Learning Objectives * Become familiar with the Google Cloud Platform and BigQuery User Interface * Ingest Google Analytics data into Adobe Experience Platform * Use Customer Journey Analytics to perform analysis of Google Analytics data * Enrich Google Analytics data with offline data ## Prerequisites * Some familiarity with Customer Journey Analytics is preferred, but not required * Access to Adobe Experience Platform: * Access to Customer Journey Analytics * Access to Google Cloud Platform and Google BigQuery * **Download these assets**: * [JSON - Sample Data: Loyalty Data](https://github.com/AdobePartnerTechnicalServices/aep-quickstart-guide/blob/main/assets/json/bqLoyalty.json) {% hint style="warning" %} This tutorial was created to facilitate a particular workshop format.
