I get this error while creating extracts on Google Analytics. Anyone faced and have a solution for it?

 

Required columns are not present in the remote data source. Perform full refresh of the extract.

    In addition to previous comment, to preserve history.

     

    I am using Desktop 8.2.2 (which is suppose to have the issue fixed). But, still face the same problem. That is, whenever a GA Data Source is created and calculated fields are added, then after an incremental refresh I see this error "Required Field missing in Data Source".   The whole flow is on Tableau Desktop 8.2.2 interacting with GA (WITHOUT involving Tableau Server).

     

    BTW, the full refresh works fine.
