How to use Custom Dimensions?

Firstly, thanks for writing the great library!

I am trying to use a custom dimension and I found that I can get a type using:

 Analytics.Data.CustomVariablesorColumns.Dimensions.dimensionXX

But I do not see a way to specify which of my custom dimensions to use. How would I use a custom dimension with the library?

Thanks in advance!

A Little Help

I am so thankful for what you have done. I would be stuck without it.

I am having some small issues.

I can't figure out how to use the filters. I don't see anything on it in the documentation, and I'm not that smart.

I am using this code:
List<Analytics.Data.DataItem> metrics = new List<Analytics.Data.DataItem>();
//metrics.Add(Analytics.Data.Visitor.Metrics.visitors);
metrics.Add(Analytics.Data.Session.Metrics.visits);
//metrics.Add(Analytics.Data.Session.Metrics.timeOnSite);
metrics.Add(Analytics.Data.Adwords.Metrics.adClicks);
metrics.Add(Analytics.Data.Adwords.Metrics.adCost);
metrics.Add(Analytics.Data.Adsense.Metrics.adsenseAdsClicks);
//metrics.Add(Analytics.Data.Adsense.Metrics.adsenseRevenue);
metrics.Add(Analytics.Data.Session.Metrics.Calculated.visitBounceRate);
//metrics.Add(Analytics.Data.Session.Metrics.
List<Analytics.Data.DataItem> dimensions = new List<Analytics.Data.DataItem>();
//dimensions.Add(Analytics.Data.GeoNetwork.Dimensions.country);
//dimensions.Add(Analytics.Data.GeoNetwork.Dimensions.city);
dimensions.Add(Analytics.Data.TrafficSources.Dimensions.campaign);
dimensions.Add(Analytics.Data.TrafficSources.Dimensions.keyword);
List<Analytics.Data.DataItem> filters = new List<Analytics.Data.DataItem>();
filters.Add(Analytics.Data.Session.Metrics.visits);

        System.Data.DataTable table = manager.GetGaDataTable(DateTime.Today.AddDays(-5), DateTime.Today, metrics, dimensions, filters, metrics);

Unfortunately, it seems to filter off all results. I want my list to include anything that has over 50 visits. How would I do that?

You can also see that I have commented out adsenseRevenue, and timeOnSite. Both of these metrics throw a conversion error something like this:

String was not recognized as a valid DateTime.Couldn't store <0.0> in timeOnSite Column. Expected type is DateTime.

and...

Input string was not in a correct format.Couldn't store <2.52E-4> in adsenseRevenue Column. Expected type is Decimal.

I'm not smart enough to fix either problem.

I would really appreciate any help that you would be willing to provide.

Thanks,

Mike

Please set a default profile first using SetDefaultAnalyticProfile method

I'm getting always the following error 👍

" Please set a default profile first using SetDefaultAnalyticProfile method"

My code is exactly the same with you.

API Slow?

Hi, I came across your library when needing to build a web service that will connect and pull data from Google Analytics using a Service Account. It's great.

However I had only one problem .. in AnalyticsManager.cs, in the GetGaData method, when it calls analyticsService.Data.Ga.Get with the parameters I provide and calls request.Execute, the execute method takes approx 35 seconds to return data, seemlingly regardless of the dimensions, metrics, filters or sampling level.

Have you seen this issue?

ga:Date returns as DateTime

Hi Guys,

when you go to https://ga-dev-tools.appspot.com/explorer/ the dimension ga:Date is supposed to be a STRING, but when uysing this api it returns as a date time, anyone else have this problem ?

Cryptographic Exception

Hi,
When i try to run Analytics test I get the following error:

An exception of type 'System.Security.Cryptography.CryptographicException' occurred in mscorlib.dll but was not handled in user code

I'm not sure why i get this issue.

I have done the following:

Added the ...gserviceaccount.com to my Account user management
In the code added the e mail to Analytics.AnalyticsManager manager
Added my profile number manager.SetDefaultAnalyticProfile("999999999");

I'm not sure if I meant to change anything else or am missing anything?

Any help would be much appreciated!
