      On Google analytics for our clients when you check the Matched Search Query under Traffic Sources > Overview, it says "There is no data for this view.".

      I have Google searched it and i am not finding my answer to why this is not displaying my information. On my personal analytics account when i clicked on matched search query it displays exactly what the person searched when it trigered my adwords ad. I have no idea why this account doesn't display the same info when it appears to be setup in the same way.

      Example: If i am broad match targeting the keyword "outdoor sports", and someone searched "Canadian outdoor sports for kids" It would show exactly what they searched under Matched Search Query.

      Anyone know how to resolve this issue?

        Did you link you Google Webmaster tools to your Google Analytics?

          I think Bryan means has the client linked their Adwords Account to their Analytics account, Vital?

          That's the only way this data can be available.

            Yeah they were never linked in adwords, I never thought to check that. Thank you for the help!
