I need to retrieve Customer's raw data from Google Analytics or use an API. I am not sure which API would give all of customers interactions on the site. I have to load this data on Azure data lake for advanced reporting. Also, where does the actual data reside? Please assist.
Raw data can be exported in BigQuery. The link to BQ is currently free for GA4 Property while for Universal Analytics you must have the GA360 paid plan.
You can get data with API as well but not raw.

I am using Diagnostic settings to move real time Telemetry data to ADLS2 storage account. I am planning to create a custom Application map application which will need Telemetry data. Since I am importing data to ADLS2, is there any way to query the data in ADLS2 like we do in App insights using Kusto query. I am planning to create a .net 6 api to query the data.
I am open to alternatives to ADLS2 as well.
Please suggest.
I'm able to extract aggregated and itemised billing data from Google Cloud using BigQuery, against exported billing data. I'd like to be able to query the forecast billing data that is shown in the console, but I can't find this in any API or referenced anywhere for use in the billing data export. Is it possible?
The forecasted billing data is not available to export to BigQuery. The forecast costs can only be viewed as graphs from the Cloud Billing console.
A forecasting model can be built on the past data for analysis using BigQuery ML.
Google Data Studio also can be used to forecast costs as shown in this article.
When I check official documentation, I understood that I need to prepare the metadata about a data source and then I can upload this information to data catalog using the rest API. When I use the web interface however, I can upload documents to be analzed by the Azure Data catalog itself. Is it possible to use the REST API in the same manner?
No. The REST API doesn't do any analysis. I believe only the client does that.
Is it possible to expose an Azure Data Lake Store via OData? The main goal is consume this service in Salesforce (via Salesforce Connect).
If so, should it take place through Azure Data Factory?
Update
A little bit more of context:
We have historical data stored in Azure Data Lake Storage (ADLS) that we want to expose via OData (to be visualised in Salesforce via Salesforce Connect / External objects). After digging into the issue and potential solutions, we don't think ADLS is the right service to be used in this particular case. Instead, we'll might need to configure a Data Factory pipeline to copy the data we are interested in to a SQL Database and read the data from there via a simple ASP.Net application using Entity Data Model and WCF Data Services Entity Framework Provider (got some insights from this website).
I don't think OData has a connector for ADLS. However, given OData is basically a REST API, you could probably build an OData API over the existing ADLS REST APIs if they are not providing what you need. I am not sure how ADF would come into this picture?
Maybe it would be useful if you tell us what you want to achieve?
Is there a way of integrating Google Analytics data and Google Adwords data into Microsoft Azure? If so could you please advise I have trawled the internet for solutions but I am unable to find anything.
I do not want to know how to put GA data into a data warehouse I want to know specifically on microsoft azure how you can do this using the data factory.
Azure Data factory currently does not read data from Google Analytics. The full list of data store solutions supported by Azure Data Factory can be found here.
