How to copy/export required GA4 events from one property to another

Question

I have created one GA4 property (property-1) and one of our partner/vendor team creating another GA4 property (property-2). When we launch our vendor pages the events are getting tracked through Property-2.

Is there any way that to copy few/specific events from Property-2 to Property-1 without manual way. We are thinking like manually exporting the property-2 events to CSV from bigquery linking. Then import the events csv into Property-1, which seems manual process and not a feasible solution.

You can use The google analytics data api to extract from each property.

POST https://analyticsdata.googleapis.com/v1beta/properties/GA4_PROPERTY_ID:runReport
  {
    "dateRanges": [{ "startDate": "2020-09-01", "endDate": "2020-09-15" }],
    "dimensions": [{ "name": "country" }],
    "metrics": [{ "name": "activeUsers" }]
  }

This data is extracted in Json format so you will need to format it however you want in order to do your analytics.

{
  "dimensionHeaders": [
    {
      "name": "country"
    }
  ],
  "metricHeaders": [
    {
      "name": "activeUsers",
      "type": "TYPE_INTEGER"
    }
  ],
  "rows": [
    {
      "dimensionValues": [
        {
          "value": "Japan"
        }
      ],
      "metricValues": [
        {
          "value": "2541"
        }
      ]
    },
    {
      "dimensionValues": [
        {
          "value": "France"
        }
      ],
      "metricValues": [
        {
          "value": "12"
        }
      ]
    }
  ],
  "metadata": {},
  "rowCount": 2
}

Note: At the time of writing the Google analytics data api is still in Beta. And may change in the future.

This is a Beta version of the product. While no breaking changes are expected in this phase, pre-GA products may have limited support, and changes to pre-GA products may not be compatible with other pre-GA versions.
