I am going to export those dashboards into my web using google analytics api.
Does google analytics api have any methods to get the data of the dashboards?
Or I have to create one by one myself using google analytics api?
The Google Analytics API us used for extracting data from Google Analytics. In the case of the Reporting API its dimensions and metric data. In the Case of the management API its information about the account itself.
Dashboards are UI data from the Google Analytics website. There is no way to export that information.
So no you are not going to be extracting dashboard info using any of the Google analytics APIs.

What is the difference between Google Analytics Reporting API, Google Analytics API, and Google Analytics Data API? What I need is to report on the data for a 3rd party site/account, but it sounds like all 3 of these APIs are for reporting on data. Could you advise? I've been looking through their docs and they all still sound the same.
Analytics hub is for big query.
Google analytics reporting api - Gives access to extract data from Universal analytics accounts
Google analytics api - is a little harder to nail down. It almost sounds like it gives access to extract data and and configure google analytics data. Which would imply that its management api for for universal analytics Google analytics admin api and possibly the reporting api as well.
Google analytics data api - used to extract data from Google analytics ga4 accounts
What I need is to report on the data for a 3rd party site/account
Im not sure what you mean by this. None of those are for sending data to google analytics. To send data to google analytics. you would use one of the collection options.
So we are using Reporting V3 API in our custom dashboard to retrieve custom reports from multiple GA properties. Now some of our customers have GA4 properties which doesn't show up in properties list. Question is, to support both versions (GA3 and GA4) the only alternative now is to use Reporting V3 and Data API for different properties or did we miss something and there's one API which can be used for both GA versions?
There are two versions of Google analytics now Universal analytics and GA4 they are completely different and have different APIs designed for each one.
Google analytics reporting api allows you to access data from Universal analytics accounts.
Google Analytics GA4 is a completely different system and is not supported by the reporting api to access data behind a GA4 account you will need to use the Google analytics data api
there is also the Google analytics admin API which is the equivalent for the Management api for GA4. so if you want to be able to list a customers GA4 accounts you will need to use that api as well.
Note: The admin api is currently in alpha, and the data api is currently in beta. Take that into account before developing production applications using these apis.
Just curious if its possible, since Google analytics and Google analytics for firebase seems to be two different things. It would be convenient to see analytics for all my projects at the same place.
This is not possible at the moment, however you can see data collected by all the Firebase apps present in a project in a single dashboard.
Firebase data can flow into Google Analytics via Google Tag Manager but vice versa is not possible.
I'm currently working on a reporting module using Google Analytics API (v4) linked to a Google Adwords account.
While it does manage to query data based on a selection of criteria from the Google Dimension and Metrics Explorer from a linked Google Adwords account, I am unable to query data such as Click Type Performance (the one that shows Headline, Sitelink, etc) or Ad Extension Performance from Adwords through the GA API.
I do know that Google Adwords API is able to provide reporting functionality as well but is the API thorough enough to pull data such as Click Type Performance and Ad Extension Performance?
In other words, what does Google Adwords reporting API provide that GA API linked to a Google Adwords account can't do?
The Google Analytics is a website for displaying analytics about web and mobile applications. Google Adwords is is an online advertising website. they are two different systems.
The Google Analytics API can only return to you Google Analitcs data. That being limited to the dimensions and metrics found in the Google Dimension and Metrics Explorer.
The Adwords API can only return to you data for adwords.
What does Google Adwords reporting API provide that GA API linked to a Google Adwords account can't do?
Adwords returns analitics based upon the ads you are currently running. Google analytics api returns your website analytics data.
I want to display my statistics. I know how to use basicaly the Google Analytics API.
The user will authentificate with google
The user will see HIS statistics from his account.
But what I want is to show my statistics. I really don't understand the goal of the API f I can't display the statistics from my account to other users.
If you want to integrate the Google Analytics API with your application, you must have a Google API console project and enable Analytics API. For more details Google Analytics API Integration & Example
