@aa-matthias I checked that custom metrics and dimensions currently working.

However, it was not sufficiently tested in UA and GA. If you want to test it first, use the following branch

69 or branch feature/backend/support-custom-metric-dimension

Hi @lcc3108 - i would be happy to test, but it looks like the CI Action is not storing the Artefacts of the build job. Is it possible to get a plugin.zip of the package? Thanks!

lcc3108 commented 1 year ago

https://github.com/blackcowmoo/grafana-google-analytics-datasource/tree/feature/backend/support-custom-metric-dimension/build you can try docker build 0.2.1 will be combined with additional features and will be created as a release.

aa-matthias commented 10 months ago

@lcc3108 do you know when Release 0.2.1 will be published in the grafana Plugin Marketplace?

lcc3108 commented 10 months ago

@aa-matthias Commutiny plugin are released only with Grafana approval.

Currently awaiting review of the grafana.

I submitted a plugin update request at 08/24 11:50PM KST and currently awaiting review.

thanks, ok

0.2.1 released

aa-matthias commented 10 months ago

Checking out Release 0.2.2 I can now pick Custom Metrics in the Query Builder 🚀 - returned values are null but same query works in GA4 Query Explorer

this seems to be a type config issue based on the warnings i get

@aa-matthias I will create a new issue based on what you reported.

Additionally, could you give me a brief explanation or a link so that I can set the custom metric the same?

aa-matthias commented 10 months ago

Sure - custom metrics need to be defined within the GA4 propery. RunReportResponse will then include information about the data type of the custom metric. Possible types can be seen in the docs:

https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/data/v1/rest/v1beta/MetricType?hl=en

I would say the type needs to be considered when interpreting / transforming the response - looks like currently the grafana-google-analytics-datasource plugin tries to interpret the values as datetime fields.

in our case the metric is of type TYPE_MILLISECONDS
