--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name of API affected:
Analytics Data Export API

Request summary:
To be able to specify metric ratio and other calculation.

Use Cases:
This allows custom metric calculations that are not already pre-calculated, 
such as "(ga:goal1Value + ga:goal2Value) / ga:goal3Value", or  calculation 
based events, etc. While this can be done by requesting each individual 
metrics, it means I have to do the calculations, filtering, and sorting.

Removing an obsolete label that was used when these issues were in the 
gdata-issues project.

Changing the issue type to match the organization desired in this project.

having custom metric is good, but having custom metric per visit (average) is 
even better. Currently this is done by exporting data into a spreadsheet before 
applying the calculation

+1 for this. I also need at least the avg of custom metric based by visit.

Also looking for this on a key website metric :)

This is essential.
In our case we track the duration of video consumption. We need the avg. for 
each video.

There are others online platforms than can offer this calculations from GA 
basic metrics, but I would prefer to get all KPIs and ratios in the GA Panel. 
Please solve this fault it is not so difficult to develop. Thank you, BR.

Providing Custom Metrics but no calculation not added much value in many 
scenarios.. i want to know the page views to real orders ratio..this is not 
possible without simple math not available in GA..as another said it is very 
easy to implement..

At the very least allow us to receive the average value of a custom metric, 
there are a lot of cases in which a Total is just not relevant.

as a game developer metrics are useless if we  don have some way of getting 
min,max,average and mean values

I'd love to use custom metric to track the number of search results returned, 
but I care about the average number of hits per search phrase, not the total. I 
have to agree that I find the value of metrics greatly diminished by not being 
able to specify how they're aggregated.

Getting at least the average of custom metrics is really important! Now I have 
to export data and calculate it instead of customer just checking it from 
dashboard or GA report.

This feature would be extremely important for agile clients looking to have a 
quick glance on their returns. Please consider putting this on schedule.

This is so basic!

Just like #12 Rilldel, as a game developer, Custom metrics are useless without 
basic calculations.
Google sheets export is a slow as hell process, results in tons of useless 
sheets, etc.
To get the ratios I need I resort to specifying different Screen views for the 
different cases then use the funnel abandonment rates!
Or use tons of events to make use of the 'Value' parameter. Which is exactly 
what Custom Metrics are supposed to alleviate...
