How do I revoke GA4audit's access to my Google account?

How to revoke GA4audit's access to your Google account at any time (myaccount.google.com/permissions), what happens afterwards, and how it differs from deleting data.

2 min read

You can withdraw access at any moment - with a single click, on Google's side, without contacting us. That's fully your right, and we deliberately document this procedure as carefully as connecting the account.

Revoking access in your Google account (recommended method)

1.Go to myaccount.google.com/permissions (Google Account → Security → Connections to third-party apps & services).
2.Find GA4audit / GA4audyt on the list.
3.Click it and choose "Remove access".

From that moment our tokens stop working - any attempt to read your GA4 data is rejected by Google. The effect is immediate.

What happens after revoking access

We can no longer read any data from your Google Analytics - the connection is dead.
Your existing reports remain available in GA4audit - a report is a stored examination result, not a "live" link to GA4. You can keep viewing, exporting and deleting them as before.
A new audit or rescan will ask you to reconnect - you'll see the standard Google consent screen, just like the first time.
Report elements read live from GA4 (e.g. the current state of data streams) stop refreshing until you reconnect.

Revoking access vs. deleting data

Revoking access removes our ability to read your data going forward, but it doesn't delete the reports already stored in your GA4audit account. If you want those gone too:

individual reports can be deleted in the project history (How do I delete a report from history?),
the entire account, with all reports and all properties disconnected, can be deleted in profile settings (How do I delete my account with all data?).

When it's worth revoking - and when it isn't necessary

Revoking makes sense when you stop using GA4audit or connected the account one-off, e.g. for a test. You don't need to revoke access "for safety" between audits - the access is read-only, and the operational token expires after about an hour anyway. Revoking and re-granting consent before every audit improves nothing and only adds clicks.
