I am able to return the pageviews for a page. But the API returns those pageviews separated by source. So for page /this-page-slug/ it returns X amount of views for direct, Y for referral, Z for mobile, W for none and so on. I want to get the total pageviews for all sources per path. How can I do that?
This is the function that I am using to get the results:
function getResults($analytics, $profileId) {
// Calls the Core Reporting API and queries for the number of sessions
// for the last seven days.
$optParams = array(
'dimensions' => 'ga:source, ga:medium, ga:pagePath',
'sort' => '-ga:pageviews');
return $analytics->data_ga->get(
'ga:' . $profileId,
'2017-08-23',
'2017-10-04',
'ga:uniquePageviews,ga:pageviews,ga:pageviewsPerSession',
$optParams);
}
I was able to find my own solution from Eike's post. The solution was to exclude ga:source and ga:medium from dimensions. Like so:
function getResults($analytics, $profileId) {
// Calls the Core Reporting API and queries for the number of sessions
// for the last seven days.
$optParams = array(
'dimensions' => 'ga:pagePath',
'sort' => '-ga:pageviews');
return $analytics->data_ga->get(
'ga:' . $profileId,
'2017-08-23',
'2017-10-04',
'ga:uniquePageviews,ga:pageviews,ga:pageviewsPerSession',
$optParams);
}
