My team recently linked our google analytics premium account with our double click for publishers account. Now when I go to the google analytics website, I can create a report and get the following metrics per page:

DFP Revenue Publisher Revenue DFP Backfill Revenue AdX Revenue

The issue is that I want to consume this data via the reporting API. I see that I can use the metric "ga:adxRevenue" to get the AdX Revenue. My question is, how can I get the other 3 types of revenue from the reporting API? I experimented by trying "ga:dfpRevenue" but got the following error:

GOOGLE ANALYTICS FAIL: Error calling GET https://www.googleapis.com/analytics/v3/data/ga?ids=ga%[id purposefully left out]&start-date=2016-06-03&end-date=2016-06-03&metrics=ga%3Apageviews%2Cga%3AuniquePageviews%2Cga%3Asessions%2Cga%3AadxRevenue%2Cga%3AdfpRevenue&dimensions=ga%3Adate%2Cga%3ApagePath&start-index=1&max-results=10000&sort=-ga%3Apageviews&filters=ga%3ApagePath%3D%7E%2Fnews%2F%7C%2Flists: (400) Unknown metric(s): ga:dfpRevenue

What metrics do I need to use to get this to work?

Thanks,

Matt

You need to simultaneously query the campaign and analytics and cross compare both to get your desired value.Gokigooooks

It looks like that metric is currently not supported.

  • See the dimensions and metric explorer for the complete list of supported dimensions and metrics.
