Question: I keep seeing

under my

section so I'm unable to see what people are searching for when Googling my website.

I had a friend say for me to click 'Search Engine Optimisaion > Queries' in Analytics and then link it to Google Webmaster Tools.

I did this a few days ago but I'm still getting the '(not provided)' problem.

Do I need to do something else?

Answer: 
What you did was connecting the Search Console to Analytics. Here you get the Search Console Analytics Data in Google Analytics, but under a new Tab:

The Problem here is, that you don´t see the behavioural and transaction-Metrics for this Keywords (you even don´t see which Keyword rankt to which page). 

As other mentioned the Problem is here Google Secure Search Update in 2011. Also Bing started 2015 to deliver the search results in https so you get less and less Keywords here.

There are some workarounds with filters for this <https://blog.kissmetrics.com/unlock-keyword-not-provided/>. But this are just "workarounds".

To get a idea of the Keywords a User googled to come to my pages i use <https://keyword-hero.com/>. They match the Keywords quite well. I test it now since ca. 3 weeks and it looks like this:

You can also use the Search Console itself to get an idea of the Keywords user googled, i thinks its the best source for this.
This is a security thing. 

If the search came from SSL Search on <https://www.google.com> Note the HTTPS not HTTP then the data is not shown to you. Google stores it as (Not provided). Webmaster toosl should be set up the same as this is a Google thing.
