This data can be generated in a Custom Report, with a drilldown dimension, but
the
drilldown cannot be exported. Is this part of a larger issue with not being
able to
export drilldown data - or is this specific to this combination?

This may, or may not, be a related item but It seems very similiar. To me that
when you are using campaign tagging to the full extent on your site; Campaign
name, source, terms, content and keywords - You should be able to use the api
to query this same data. This seems to be a huge flaw. I can successfully
combine name, content, source and terms to generate reports, but as soon as I
use the AdContent field to distinguish my last level of details between tracked
links I receive the dreaded "Illegal combination of dimensions and metrics".
I am not sure why this occurs since i can parse this data using the web client.
We have a custom CMS in my work place and all redirect and campaign tracking
URLS are tracked and reported through a centralized interface.

Jason-
Can you be more specific?
Your Dimensions are:
ga:campaign
ga:source
ga:adContent
"terms"
"content"
ga:keyword
what are the dimensions you're referring to as "terms" and "content", if not
keyword and adContent? And what metrics are you querying for?

Hello,
I am also being affected by this issue:
The analytics group at my company populate their datawarehouse with Google
Analytics Ecommerce content in order to perform in-house marketing analysis &
reporting.
To save them time, I am trying to create an automated tool that will save them
the time from having to manually export the report and populate the db.
Dimensions:
ga:transactionId,ga:source,ga:medium,ga:campaign,ga:keyword,ga:adContent,ga:visi
torType,ga:landingPagePath
Metrics:
ga:itemRevenue,ga:transactionTax,ga:transactionShipping,ga:itemQuantity
The data needs to be organized with ga:transactionId as the key.
Taking the 7 dimension limit into consideration, my queries to the DataExport
API fail anytime time I include ga:adContect or ga:landingPagePath in the
'dimensions' argument.
Error: Bad request - Illegal combination of dimensions and metrics
For the team, it is very important to have ga:adContent and ga:landingPagePath
keyed to ga:transactionId.
Is there a work-around for this issue? What are the chances that this will be
fixed in the near future?
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
-Ivan

I have found this issue by trying to analyse the average purchase price from a
split test campaign where the separating variable was ad content. I was
surprised to see that medium, source, campaign are linked to transactions but
not ad content.
I add my vote to this as well.

Hi,
We would like to query ecommerce metrics ga:transactions and ga:itemRevenue
with the dimension combination
ga:date,ga:source,ga:medium,ga:campaign,ga:adContent,ga:productSku. With the
above combinations getting the error as 'Selected dimensions and metrics cannot
be queried together'. Is there a workaround for this issue?
Thank you!

Same here, especially with Google's focus on ecommerce it seems like adContent
which is one of the campaign tracking dimensions should be queri-able with
transactionId.

What exactly can be queried with transaction id? I am working on an automated
SSIS package to pull transactionid, hour of day, campaign, adgroup, and keyword
with the clicks, cost, and impressions metrics, but keep getting invalid
dimension and combination errors. Which of these can I query together?
This issue has my vote as well!
