Updated 2024-12-20
Account Setup
Step 1: Sign In with Google
- Click "Login with Google" on the homepage
- Select your Google account that has access to Search Console and Analytics
- Review and accept the permissions Glarify needs
Required Permissions
Glarify requests access to:
- Google Search Console: View search performance data, sitemaps, and coverage
- Google Analytics 4: Read property data and reports
- Basic Profile: Your name and email for account creation
Security Note: Glarify uses OAuth 2.0 and never stores your Google password. You can revoke access anytime from your Google account settings.
Step 2: Create Your First Project
- After login, you'll see the project creation screen
- Enter your website name (e.g., "My Tech Blog")
- Optionally add notes about the project
- Click "Create Project"
Step 3: Connect Data Sources
- Go to Settings → Integrations
- Click "Sync Properties from Google"
- Select the GSC and GA4 properties you want to connect
- Wait for the initial data sync (usually 1-2 minutes)
Troubleshooting Connection Issues
| Issue | Solution |
|---|---|
| No properties showing | Check your Google account has owner/user access to GSC properties |
| Sync fails | Try re-authenticating your Google account |
| Properties not verified | Verify ownership in Google Search Console first |
| GA4 not appearing | Ensure you have at least viewer access to the GA4 property |
