Just a touch of magic.

Ali Izadi opened my eyes to Google's biggest secret - the Query Explorer tool for GA4 and Universal Analytics. It resides within my beloved Dimension & Metrics Explorer and is accessed by clicking on the corresponding item in the sidebar.

What can it do?

Firstly, validate your API requests. You can receive ready-made JSON for your request similar to Event Builder.

Secondly, provide the results of your query directly in the web interface.

Thirdly, export archived data from a disabled Universal Analytics account. Right here and right now - in tsv format.
