Google Analytics v4 API Ruby Gem

This is a simple wrapper to interact with the Google Analytics v4 API (currently in beta) with Ruby. It's based on the Admin API guide and the Reports API guide

Usage

Add this gem to your Gemfile:

gem 'google_analytics_v4_api'

You will need a way to get a user's valid (and fresh) token (I personally use the gem omnioauth), and then:

Management API

client = GoogleAnalyticsV4Api::Client.new(token)
# List all the accounts
accounts = client.accounts
# Or get one particular account
account = client.account("accounts/24696xxx")

# List all the properties for a particular account
properties = client.properties("accounts/24596xxx")
# Or get one particular property
property = client.property("properties/33783xxx")

# Or simply call the properties for an Account object
properties = account.properties
# Or one particular property
property = account.property("properties/33783xxx")

Data API

filter = {
  "andGroup": {
    "expressions": [
      {
        "filter": {
          "fieldName": "countryId",
          "stringFilter": {
            "value": "CL"
          }
        }
      },
      {
        "filter": {
          "fieldName": "pagePath",
          "stringFilter": {
            "matchType": "CONTAINS",
            "value": "events",
            "caseSensitive": false
          }
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}
report = GoogleAnalyticsV4Api::Report.new(
          dimensions: ['pagePath', 'countryId'],
          metrics: ['sessions', 'screenPageViews'],
          dimension_filter: filter,
          start_date: Date.today - 30, #optional, 30 days ago by default
          end_date: Date.today - 1) #optional, today by default

response = property.run_report(report)

# Get raw data from the response
response.raw_dimension_headers
=> [{"name"=>"pagePath"}, {"name"=>"countryId"}]
response.raw_metric_headers
=> [{"name"=>"sessions", "type"=>"TYPE_INTEGER"}, {"name"=>"screenPageViews", "type"=>"TYPE_INTEGER"}]
response.rows.first
=> {"dimensionValues"=>[{"value"=>"/events"}, {"value"=>"CL"}], "metricValues"=>[{"value"=>"58"}, {"value"=>"78"}]}

# Or get a simplified version of the response
response.dimension_headers
=> ["pagePath", "countryId"]
response.metric_headers
=> ["sessions", "screenPageViews"]
response.parsed_rows.first.data
=> {"pagePath"=>"/events", "countryId"=>"CL", "sessions"=>58, "screenPageViews"=>78}

Dimensions and Metrics are available here Information about Filters is available here
