When registering your website with Google Analytics, is it possible to then create your own dashboard on your website and retrieve individual Google Analytics data segments instead of logging into Google and watch the statistics from there?
In short building your own dashboard, using Google Analytics data? Perhaps Google Analytics have some sort of API one can use to specify what to return to the website to display?
Thanks in advance
You could also checkout the Embed API. it makes creating dashboards simple by making the auth step simple.
Just google for the question.

and probably this is the best tool you can get from anywhere to fetch all your data :

I have enabled Google Analytics on my website, I can also view dashboards made by Google at analytics.google.com. I want to know if I can embed those dashboards into my own custom site such as mycompany.com.au
I don't think google allows you to have an iframe on their analytics page, but you can set up events to go to Big Query, then access Big Query to create your own sites
You cant directly.
What you can do is use the Google analytics embedded api to which will allow you to show a users google analytics accounts nicely, but your going to have to design all the requests yourself to mirror the Google analytics reports, this also only works with UA analytics not GA4
Byond that you could use the Google analytics api, to request the data yourself and use google charts and graphs to display it nicely on your website.
I guess what I am saying there is nothing out of the box that will do this for you Its something your going to have to code yourself. I have done it for serval clients it can be done very elegantly.
I am in a need of sharing a Google analytics access of my website to a developer and want to hide revenue and conversions sections in Google Analytics account/property/view.
any guidance how is it possible to do that?
if you want to share access to the report in Google analytics web application then the simple answer is you can't, access to a Google analytics account is all or nothing
you could grab the data for them through the API using a service account and design your own reports display of the data
It is not possible to give visibility to only some sections or metrics of a view. You can use API (like said to DalmTo) or more simple to provide data with an external dashboard, for example with Google Data Studio, which fetches data from your Google Analytics and shows only the ones you want to share.
In the Google Analytics console I can easily create charts and add them to dashboards. But how can I display those charts or dashboards on a 3rd party website?
I've seen the Embed API, but it looks like the definition of the reports is always in the Javascript. Is it not possible to say something like display the dashboard that I already created which name/id is XYZ?
Or is there a way, when creating a report in Google Analytics, to get its definition so that I can easily use it? I saw Query Explorer but it doesn't help.
No you can not take the Google Analytics dashboard and display it on another website.
The best option there is to date is the Embedded API which you mentioned. Although it has its limitations. The Embedded API is designed to display a specific users Google Analytics Dashboard who ever is logged in. If you are trying to share the information from your account with other users it wont work unless they also have access to your Google Analytics account.
The Query Explorer shows you what the google Analytics API is capable of. You can develop your own tool to show this information to your users.
I am currently busy with embeddig a Google Analytics dashboard on a third-party website. I've already made a server-side authorization work and I'm able to display some google analytics data.
Now I'm wondering if it's possible to query google analytics benchmark data and show it on third-party website.
It doesn't look like Google Analytics benchmark data is available through the API.
Check this query explorer for the possible query parameters through the GA API.
As a workaround, you could either manually pull a csv report from GA, or write an automated script that can do this, depending on what you need.
I have a project for getting the data from google analytics, from where the visitors are coming. This is an example: http://www.avaaz.org/en/community.php
On mouse over in a country, then show how much visitors does it have.
Which is better to use Javascript with PHP or something else.
Thanks for helping.
You can do this though the Google Analytics API. If its your own data then I recommend you use php and go with a service account. There is a tutorial here on how to get started with the Google analytics api. Tutorial Hello analytics
I haven't tried it yet, but they recently added some info on merging Google charts with Google analytics data. There is a map in Google charts so this should be possible. You can read about it here Visualizing Google Analytics Data with Google Chart Tools
