I upgraded to Google Analytics 4 and struggle to display event parameters in Google Data Studio. I created an event parameter in Google Tag Manager to track the ID of a link. Now I want to display a table in Google Data Studio to show how many clicks I have for each ID in the last 30 days.
In GA4 it just shows the event parameters of the last 30 minutes
That's why I tried to display it in Data Studio. But I have no idea how to do that.
In Universal analytics it was no problem but GA4 really gives me a hard time.
UPDATE:
I could solve it with BigQuery. I activated BigQuery in my console, connected it with my analytics acount, connected BigQuery with Data Studio and created a custom Query.
The solution via BigQuery is one way.
The other option would be to to create a custom dimension, which is based on your custom event parameter. The reason is that Google Analytics 4 event parameters are currently not being synched with Google Data Studio - but only Google Analytics 4 dimensions are.
In the Google Analytics 4 interface, you can go to Configure > Custom Definitions > Custom Dimensions and create an event-scoped custom dimension based on the event parameter affiliate.
Then, after updating your Google Data Studio data source, you should be able to access the new dimension in Google Data Studio.
You can display event parameter in Google Data Studio with a filter like this:
Include -> Page title and screen name > contains -> affiliate

I've been using such API for generating reports over Google Analytics:
https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/core/v4/rest/v4/reports/batchGet
This API has result field isDataGolden:
Indicates if response to this request is golden or not. Data is golden when the exact same request will not produce any new results if asked at a later point in time.
Currently Google Analytics has new API for generating such reports:
https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/data/v1/rest/v1beta/properties/batchRunReports
But there is no analogue of isDataGolden field in this API
Question:
Is such flag will be added to new API, or maybe there is another instrument to get only golden data from new API?
p.s.:
I need to use this new API, since old one does not support new analytics properties without Universal Analytics view_id
The Google analytics data api is used for extracting data from google analytics ga4 accounts. The reporting api is used for extracting data from Universal analytics accounts. These are two different systems and should not be compared. You can not use the Google analytics data api to extract data from universal analytics accounts with view ids.
If you check the documentation for RunReportResponse which is the response returned from running a reporting in google analytics data. You will find that there is no is golden property or any property of that nature.
Remember this api is still in beta the team is still working on it. One may appear in the future. You will need to wait to find out if google will add any field like this in the future as anyone who would know is probably under NDA and cant tell you.
I am trying to implement an evaluation survey for meetings, using Microsoft Forms over Office 365.
After I create and generate the link, I can get the info in an Excel file, but am missing a field with which I can link the survey's answers to the meeting.
Desired output in as seen in this image (all fields are already generated by Forms, except by that whose content is highlighted in yellow, which is the one I need to find out how to generate):
For the time being, I have 2 issues to solve:
How can I generate an ID for a meeting from Microsoft Outlook (where the meeting invitation was sent).
How can I pass that ID to Microsoft Forms.
Ideas about this or an alternative approach are welcome, thanks!!!
I think I have found a better approach:
To scrape all appointments in a period of time via API
To load appointment's data in MongoDB
To send personalized links to Outlook Forms questionnaires.
Here is the API documentation:

TL,DR; Any suggestions / tips to use a WebCal URL update as a trigger in a Flow?
Background: My 3 children use Schoology for their online learning. They get assignments through this application, but the problem with this is that they have to go to multiple places to get this list and they cannot check off the assignments when they are completed (they just stay in their list after they have submitted and completed the item).
Schoology provides a WebCal link to see all of these assignments in a calendar feed and I would like to take all of these entries and add them to Microsoft To-Do and allow the use of the functionality there. Power Automate does not allow for the usage of WebCal links from what I can see. (There is a request here for this functionality.) So my idea was to put the WebCal in Google Calendar, use the Google Calendar trigger When an event is added to a calendar to create a Microsoft To-Do entry with Add a to-do (V2). The problem is that Power Automate does not see new entries with the Google Calendar trigger When an event is added to a calendar.
In troubleshooting this, I changed the flow source of the Google Calendar to one that is manually maintained, created a Google event and Power Automate was able to create a To-Do list entry. So I know that the Flow is working, it is just that the trigger does not fire for the WebCal.
Any suggestions / tips to use a WebCal URL as a trigger in a Flow?
As per Google as my understand:
Google caches web call links for "between 8 and 24th hour"
So that is probably the root of your 'failed to trigger' issue.
Which entity does represent it? How to get data from it using WEB API?
I do not find any information about how to fetch data from 'Timeline' window on account and contact entities. Is it possible to query all necessary info using /api/data?
Timeline is not an entity and not expose via web api endpoint. It's a custom PCF control (maybe) and all about a placeholder for showing all activities, Notes, Posts for that particular record in chronological order. Btw, Timeline can be added to Dashboard also. Read more
You can pull all the activities, Notes (annotation), Post feed & display in the same fashion if you build a portal separately.
I already searched a lot and saw this link.
I setup my google analytics with configuring magento native Google API by using account type the Google tag manager. I am able to see page views, All sessions and sessions with product views. however, the rest are 0. please take a look at the following image:
I debugged the google tag manager with debug tool and I can see that purchase tracking with purchase event is being fired, however, I do not see it in google analytics.
I already setup what the this link provided,
Also I see that data layer has the purchase information id,revenue,tax,etc.
I am wondering what needs to be done so that sessions with transactions will get recorded?
here is the configuration that I have for the tag:
I'm not sure what's wrong?
If those are the exact tags that you are using, then there looks to be a typo in your Purchase trigger. You've got Event equals puchase (typo for "purchase"). You don't need to define this value again, and it would be sufficient to just have Event name of purchase (ie. you don't need the This trigger fires on).
