Q: Should I build dashboards inside GA4 or in Looker Studio?
A: Match the tool to who's reading and how blended the data is.
— Use GA4's Library and Explore for analysts who need to drill, segment, and pivot live inside the data.
— Use Looker Studio for shareable client/exec dashboards, blending GA4 with Ads, Sheets, or Search Console in one view, and custom branding.
— Caveat: the GA4 connector in Looker Studio can sample and has quota limits — for heavy dashboards, connect Looker to BigQuery instead.
TL;DR: GA4 native for hands-on analysis, Looker Studio for shared, blended, branded reports. If Looker sampling bites, pipe through BigQuery rather than the direct GA4 connector.
