Connect Google Analytics to Zed
Give Zed governed access to Google Analytics through Runlayer, with identity, policy, scanning, and audit on every call.
Set up
Add Google Analytics to Zed in four steps
Admins approve the server once. Everyone in Zed then gets it through the same governed connection.
- 1
Approve Google Analytics in Runlayer
Add Google Analytics from the catalog and choose who can use it and which of its tools are allowed.
- 2
Connect Zed to Runlayer
Install the Runlayer CLI so Zed can reach Google Analytics, which runs on the user’s machine. Auto Sync can then write Google Analytics into Zed on macOS, Windows, and Linux.

Sign in to Google Analytics
An admin adds Google Analytics credentials to Runlayer once. They never sit in the client’s configuration.
- 4
Use Google Analytics from Zed
Google Analytics’s approved tools appear in Zed. Every call is checked against policy and recorded.
Tools
Google Analytics tools in Zed
Google Analytics reports its tools when your organization connects it, so the list depends on your deployment.
Control
What Runlayer can see and stop in Zed
Some controls apply to every client at the gateway. Others depend on what Zed exposes to Runlayer.
Gateway policy (available)
Every Google Analytics call from Zed passes through Runlayer, where your policies can allow, alert, mask, or block it.
Audit trail (available)
Each call is recorded with the user, Zed as the client, the tool, and the policy and scanner decisions.
Native enforcement adapter (not available)
Runlayer has no device-side adapter for Zed yet, so control happens at the gateway.
