Hello,

I noticed there is a bug in Google Analytics API while trying to read experiments data (AB Test) from it. I need to get number of sessions per experiment & variation. The number I get from GA API is much lower than the one I can see in web interface.

I have investigated a bit and discovered that any time I add experiment dimensions (ga:experimentId or ga:experimentVariant) in API query the results are wrong.

See below an example of the difference I am talking about.

On 20th January 2015, GA says that we had over 12000 visits to an experiment (Experiment GA - 20150120)

While API returns just 3718 visits (Experiment API - 20150120)

This issue affects to all our AB tests. Any advice on that?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Regards,

Iago.

All of a sudden, none of my reports will run when clicking Add-Ons > Google Analytics > Run Reports, on any accounts where I have reports set up. Happening to one other coworker, while the other two are fine (on PC using Chrome or Firefox for the broken ones, one of the people who has it working is using the same, one is on a Mac).

Please make the saving data when filling the form data.
It can be a Hash links or cookie storage.
E.g. when I fill the form then afk, my session has been expired. I must refresh the page and clear the data.
Can you modify the hash in the browser address bar every time when I change (or blur) form fields or submitting the form.
I have an open page of ga-dev-tools full time of day. It will makes me happy.

ga:dateHour dimension value contains date + hour, while it is formatted to date only.
I think it should be more like: moment().format('DD MMM YYYY, HH:mm')

in the demo, many ga code examples uses ga("require", "ec.js");
according to my latest tests and GA docs should be ga("require", "ec"); without the ".js"

cheers,

It seems the changing of the year has broken the date formatting to calculate the year-over-year example in the third party visualizations example (https://ga-dev-tools.appspot.com/embed-api/third-party-visualizations/). I'm reviewing Moment.js docs to see if a different format may fix, but wanted to log the bug in the meantime.

The error is caused by end date preceding start date, visible in the hosted examples.
Many thanks for the work on this.

These aren't utilized in the javascript:

#data-chart-1-container
#data-chart-2-container

While the javascript expects

#chart-1-container
#legend-1-container
#chart-2-container
#legend-2-container

The demo code uses the correct ids (without "data-").

Hi there,
not sure if this is the right place to ask, but an access to the GTM account for the enhanced ecommerce demo will be helpful. to see how things has been done behind the scene of GTM.

one thing i'm willing to know is how the GTM send the GA hit in POST
https://enhancedecommerce.appspot.com/

the access may be provided via general user or gtm api where users can give themselves view access directly from the demo page.

*same thing can be done for the GA account
cheers,

p.s
beautiful project! 👍

Hey,

whenever I try to login, after selection of account and type in of my credentials, I get back to QE and Chrome freeze (with a blue bar stopped somewhere in the middle).

From chrome console I can see this:
Failed to clear temp storage: It was determined that certain files are unsafe for access within a Web application, or that too many calls are being made on file resources. SecurityError

Different people with different computers got the same error. Could you please look at this or tell me what more do you want me to do for some additional debugging?

Thank you very much,

Vojta

Among all the Properties I have access to, a tool to see which Properties are Premium, and which are Standard. This is helpful to determine which Properties need to be enabled for Premium.

I am using Query Explorer Tool for pulling up the analytics results. The results are showing up on clicking of 'Get Data' button. When I try to export the results using the 'Excel TSV' button it throws a 500 Internal server error on the page. I have been getting this error since March 18th 2015. The export was working prior to it.

Thanks
Parag

Every time i input a wrong query in input fields like sort,filters,metrics etc the error persists even though the field has been corrected.It always needs a refresh , also while doing a refresh the data is not retained.
Also it would be great if there is a search in dimension and metric field since it is annoying to manually search to all field and select the proper check box

• Use the Embed API ViewSelector component to set/update the ids parameter.
• Use the Embed API Data component to run the query.
• Use the Embed API DataChart component to display the table of results.
• Add support for the keywords today, yesterday, and NdaysAgo in date fields.
• Add the ability to switch between segment ID and definition.
• Add search functionality to the dimensions, metrics, and segment pickers.
• Add the "samplingLevel" parameter.
• Allow including the ids parameter in the share link.
• Allow including the access_token in the API Query URI.
• The Share and API links reflect the last run report, not the current form data.

I've had a lot of trouble tracking down the right way to go about this, but I would like to build a custom dashboard for a client's CMS that would give a few views of their site data, but I'd like to not require the authentication button and login process every time. Is that possible to do with the embed-api, or would I need to go a different route?

I have reports set up in Google spreadsheets, but every time I try to run them (Add-ons -> Google Analytics -> Run reports) the popup freezes right before it runs. Usually it has a loading circle in the middle to signify that it's running, but it hasn't been showing up since yesterday afternoon. Attached is a picture showing what I mean. It's happening on every report I try, on both accounts that I have linked to GA. It doesn't seem to be an internet problem since I can query using the query tool just fine, and I've restarted my computer twice with no luck. I've also run these reports many times in the past, so it's not a report-specific problem. Any advice? Thanks!

Hi,
I had a weird data on my website.

ids:ga:31871614
metrics:ga:users
filters:ga:hostname==www.jajen90.com.tw
start-date:2014-11-01
end-date:2014-11-30

Get Data is 3.

ids:ga:31871614
metrics:ga:users
filters:ga:hostname==www.jajen90.com.tw
start-date:2014-11-07
end-date:2014-11-30

Get Data is 4.

Please tell me why.
Thanks for your help.

When executing a query with a result of 539 today. I noticed that the results in the tabular view do not display on the screen in IE, Chrome, and Firefox.

Create a new ViewSelector2 instance to be rendered inside of an
* element with the id "view-selector-container".
*/
var viewSelector = new gapi.analytics.ext.ViewSelector2({
container: 'view-selector-container',
})
.execute();

Its telling me undefined is not a function

I'd be very much interested in a demonstration showing how to embed an analytics with an access_token generated preventing the "authorize" button.
I've read many articles regarding this feature, but I can't manage to make it work otherwise than with a token generetad from the oAuth playground...
Do you think that could be possible ?

Hey guys,

Thanks for the amazing tool!

I noticed two things that might be bugs / omissions:

The "position" parameter correctly lists the position in the impression objects, but in the click "products" object "position" is always 0.

Also, there's the "list" parameter in the "products" object in the click action. This seems redundant and unsupported (at least no mention in the official docs), as you already provide the "list" in the actionField.

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'access_token' of null

Users should be informed that their session has expired and instructed what to do (or preferably the token should get refreshed automatically).

I'm having trouble limiting the number of decimal places in my tables. For metrics like Ecommerce Conversion Rate and Revenue Per Click, there are more than two decimal places.

I tried using FractionDigits in the number formatter options but that doesn't work.

What's the best way to fix this?

Thanks.

Used to use very intensivly ga-dev-tools and now I can't stand it anymore

New design is a hell due to:

1. can not SAVE request via share if tool-page came unresponsive => complete loss of my work
2. can not EDIT segment & other fields simple way, now I have to select it with mouse, copy, click on cross, paste & not pressing enter modify it, then press enter or else it'll be cleared => complete loss of my time
3. can not COPY-PASTE data right from report page to my google spreadsheet due to localized data => complete loss of goal of ga-dev-tool

Hello

Is the Enhanced E-Commerce demo website open source? See below for a link to the webpage I am talking about. Is there a git that exists for this website? I've searched but there cannot locate a git. If its not currently open source and available - are there any plans to make it open source?

https://enhancedecommerce.appspot.com/

I dont know why Authorize Account Button is hidden.
Are there any ways to use this tool or older version?

Regards.

It doesn't appear there is a way to use the embed api with a service account.

Dates from the Query Explorer come back as a YYYMMDD string but there seem no easy way to format the result using the visualization.ChartWarpper. For example "hAxis":{format:'MMM d, y'}, does not seem to work and the labels on the tick marks end up as unformulated stings (i.e. 20150315).

After my lunch break I modified request and it went very long "Loading"

I remember you told me in #60 I just need to refresh page in my browser --- so I got setup from URL but not form my latest request

Please consider modifying URL accordingly or making request URL field constantly present

It will be great to have functionality similar to Google Analytics UI where you can choose to see dimensions/metrics either grouped in their sections or alphabetically. See attached example from Google Analytics Dimensions in custom reports

I've been getting lots of 500 & 503 errors recently

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/9823550/appcraft/Screenshot%20from%202015-04-18%2019%3A46%3A51.png

There was an internal error.
There was a temporary error. Please try again later.

What is it?

New tool does not allow GoalXXConversions to be edited unless you type in the full line, defeating the purpose of the new search function. Curently puts the metric as GoalXXConversions which isn't a valid metric and isn't editable if you don't type the entire thing out yourself.

Thanks

I am trying to extract some of our GA stats using this API however since the site (the ga-dev-tools site) redesign I am unable to authorise the our GA account in order to able me to use this API. I cannot any link on the website that might help navigate through the changes.
Is there anyway I can use this API at all?

I'm logged into my Google account, but could not retrieve data until I clicked on the big orange banner Google Analytics banner - There is nothing that says click here to log on! Most frustrating.

Place a button next to the segment selection box in the query explorer where, if someone has chosen a custom segment, they can have the "full" version fetched into the segment box via management API.
(I'm putting this here as a place holder, but might do it myself.)

please send us complete code with respective files.

Hello,

I’m very interested by the Embed API, i’m looking to produce a dashboard for my website analytics and
i want to start from the Third Party Visualizations but I can’t reproduce it…

When I copy the whole code that doesn’t work, I get only this code on my website :
You are logged in as: [email protected]

It’s also the same with the example n5 : working with custom components.
I probably missing something but I don’t know what… if you have an idea I will be please.

Thx.

Direct link to this Report returns nonempty segment while it's empty in request setup fields

After I press "Get Data" on the Query Explorer:
https://ga-dev-tools.appspot.com/explorer
...the results table loads into the source, but does not display on the page.

I think the issue may be:
#resultTable .google-visualization-table { width: 0px; }
...which is applied as an inline style.

Removing this inline style via inspect element shows the table.

It will be great to be able to start typing a dimension or metric in the input fields in the query explorer and the list to be filtered to the items in the list that match the typed string.

For example if I type "product" i should be able to see:
ga:productName
ga:productSku
etc.

Right now if you do not remember exactly what the dimension/metric you are looking for is you have to look through all the entries.

It will be a great enhancement to an already awesome tool :)

Hello! When will the new site be available in French ?

Thank you !

Seems to be a big step backwards - making it prettier at the cost of actual functionality. And no, the addition of 'sampling level' does not make up for it.
First thing I tried to do was paste in pre-defined sets of metrics and dimensions, the interface lagged and had difficulty processing the string and breaking it up into visually appealing 'pills'.

The Query explorer has previously been a great place to run very fast little tests and checks - the new interface kills much of that.

It looks like the Share report feature intentionally does not include the view, but it will be very helpful to have a check box to actually include that as part of the URL. I share configuration often with people and it seems like an extra step to have to specify separately which view the configuration applies to.
