GoogleAnalytics - Group events by users

I used the Google's developer guide's example to create an event for my Android app to see it in my Google Analytics account:

// Get tracker.
Tracker t = ((AnalyticsSampleApp) getActivity().getApplication()).getTracker(
    TrackerName.APP_TRACKER);
// Build and send an Event.
t.send(new HitBuilders.EventBuilder()
    .setCategory(getString(categoryId))
    .setAction(getString(actionId))
    .setLabel(getString(labelId))
    .build());

The problem is that all the events are shown togather. Is there a way to somehow group them by users so I can see how many events happened per user and not just how many happened in total?

Solution

  • If you just want to be able to track event completions per session, then you can simply use your event in conjunction with goals (goals are only counted once per session). However, if you require counting events per user than you will probably have to use the User ID custom dimension.
