# Select Properties

> Select GA4 properties once and reuse them across multiple downstream nodes.

The **Select Properties** node lets you define which GA4 properties to use in downstream analytics nodes like **Get Report**. You can select them manually, fetch all available, or use filters.

This node simplifies workflows with multiple GA4 steps by centralizing account selection.

***

## When to Use It

Use this node when:

* You want to avoid selecting the same GA4 properties in every report node.
* You’re building larger workflows and want to manage property selection dynamically.
* You need to reuse a filtered group of accounts based on naming or ID.
* Building an AI agent that needs to list properties before running reports.

## Inputs

| Field              | Type            | Required             | Description                                                                 |
| ------------------ | --------------- | -------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Selection Mode** | Select dropdown | Yes                  | Choose how to define your properties: manual, all, or filtered              |
| **Properties**     | Multi-select    | Yes (manual)         | Manually select up to **5** properties to use in later nodes                |
| **Filters**        | Text filter     | Yes (if filter mode) | Filter properties by name or ID using text conditions                       |
| **Limit**          | Number          | No                   | Max number of properties to return (1–10,000) in **filter** or **all** mode |

***

## Selection Modes

* **Manual Selection**: Pick specific properties one by one (max 5).
* **Select All Available**: Automatically includes all GA4 properties tied to the authenticated account.
* **Filter by Name/ID**: Define rules (e.g., "Name contains 'store'") to select properties dynamically.

The **Properties**, **Filters**, and **Limit** fields will appear or hide automatically based on your selection mode.

***

## Output

The node returns the selected **property IDs** under a `data` key. You can reference this in any downstream node like **Get Report**.

***

## Example Use Case

Let’s say you run daily reports for 10 GA4 properties:

```txt theme={"dark"}
[Recurring Schedule] → [Select Properties] → [Get Report A]
                                             → [Get Report B]
                                             → [Analyze Data]
```

Now you only have to define the property list once. Each report node can reference it via:

```txt theme={"dark"}
Insert Dynamic Data → Select Properties → Properties
```

## FAQs

<Accordion title="Can I reuse this property selection across multiple report nodes?">
  {" "}

  Yes. That’s exactly the point. Once you configure this node, other GA4 nodes like
  **Get Report** can use its output via dynamic inputs.{" "}
</Accordion>

<Accordion title="How do I reference this in another node?">
  {" "}

  In any downstream GA4 node, click the dynamic data button (+) next to the **Properties**
  input, then choose: **Select Properties → Properties**{" "}
</Accordion>

<Accordion title="Why are some fields hidden or disabled?">
  {" "}

  Fields like **Properties**, **Filters**, and **Limit** are shown conditionally
  based on your **Selection Mode**. Changing modes resets incompatible fields to
  avoid conflicts.{" "}
</Accordion>

<Accordion title="How many properties can I select?">
  {" "}

  * In **manual** mode: max 5 properties - In **all** or **filter** mode: up to 10,000
    (with an optional `limit`){" "}
</Accordion>

<Accordion title="Can I filter by both Property Name and ID?">
  {" "}

  Yes. In filter mode, use one or more conditions like: - Name **contains** “store”

  * ID **equals** “12345678”{" "}
</Accordion>

<Accordion title="What if I don't want a limit on the number of properties?">
  {" "}

  Just leave the **Limit** field blank. All matching properties will be selected
  (up to the internal API limit).{" "}
