Known issues and workarounds

Please take into account our advice and known limitations

If you are installing more APIs from Google, install it all first and then restart your machine. After a new API installation, you may have to restart the machine to get the entries correct and runnable for the PowerShell-Script.
In older versions of the Layer2 Cloud Connector (7.8 -7.20) Pop-ups don’t work anymore. If you try to connect to the Google API’s you will get a 500 Error, once the API needs the confirmation from the user account. The "Preview Data" functionality is not working automatically in this szenario in the versions (7.8 -7.20). You can make it work, if you bypass the authentication through the pop-up. Here is a PowerShell script workaround for the preview data functionality for your Google Analytics data integration.
