Custom Dimensions

The Data API can create reports on Event and User scoped Custom Dimensions. See Event-scoped custom dimensions and metrics reporting and Custom user properties to learn more about custom dimensions. Custom dimensions are specified in an API report request by the dimension's parameter name and scope. For example, include "customEvent:achievement_id" in a Data API request to create a report for the Event-scoped Custom Dimension with parameter name "achievement_id". This API request will fail if the property has not registered this Event-scoped Custom Dimension.

If an Event-scoped Custom Dimension was registered before October 2020, the dimension must be specified in an API request with its event name. For example, include "customEvent:achievement_id[level_up]" for the Event-scoped Custom Dimension with parameter name "achievement_id" and event name "level_up". In October 2020, Analytics replaced Custom-parameter reporting with Event-scoped custom dimensions and metrics reporting.

The following are the general syntax for Custom Dimensions. You can query the Metadata API method to list all Custom Dimensions for a Property; here is an example of using the Metadata API method.

Generic API Name Description
customEvent:parameter_name Event-scoped Custom Dimension for parameter_name
customEvent:parameter_name[event_name] Event-scoped Custom Dimension for parameter_name if registered before October 2020
customUser:parameter_name User-scoped Custom Dimension for parameter_name

Custom Channel Groups

The Data API can create reports on Custom Channel Groups. To learn more about Custom channel groups, see this article on Custom channel groups in GA4. Custom Channel Groups are specified in an API report request by the dimension's scope and channel group ID. For example, include "sessionCustomChannelGroup:9432931" in a Data API request to create a report for the Session-scoped Custom Channel with an ID of 9432931. This API request will fail if the property does not have a custom channel with this ID.

The following are the general syntax for Custom Channel Groups. You can query the Metadata API method to list all Custom Channel Groups for a Property.

Generic API Name Description
sessionCustomChannelGroup:custom_channel_id The custom channel that lead to this session.
firstUserCustomChannelGroup:custom_channel_id The custom channel that first acquired this user.
customChannelGroup:custom_channel_id The custom channel that led to the conversion event.

cohortTotalUsers Cohort total users The total number of users in the cohort. This metric is the same value in every row of the report for each cohort.

For report rows later than the ochort's selection range, it is typical for cohortActiveUsers to be smaller than cohortTotalUsers. This difference represents users from the cohort that were not active for the later date. cohortTotalUsers is commonly used in the metric expression cohortActiveUsers/cohortTotalUsers to compute a user retention fraction for the cohort. The relationship between activeUsers and totalUsers is not equivalent to the relationship between cohortActiveUsers and cohortTotalUsers.

Custom Metrics

The Data API can create reports on Event scoped Custom Metrics. See Event-scoped custom dimensions and metrics reporting to learn more about custom metrics. Custom metrics are specified in an API report request by the metric's parameter name and scope. For example, include "customEvent:levels_unlocked" in a Data API request to create a report for the Event-scoped Custom Metric with parameter name "levels_unlocked". This API request will fail if the property has not registered this Event-scoped Custom Metric.

If an Event-scoped Custom Metric was registered before October 2020, the metric must be specified in an API request with its event name. For example, include "customEvent:levels_unlocked[tutorial_start]" for the Event-scoped Custom Metric with parameter name "levels_unlocked" and event name "tutorial_start". In October 2020, Analytics replaced Custom-parameter reporting with Event-scoped custom dimensions and metrics reporting.

The following are the general syntax for Custom Metrics. You can query the Metadata API method to list all Custom Metrics for a Property; here is an example of using the Metadata API method.

Generic API Name Description
customEvent:parameter_name Event-scoped Custom Metric for parameter_name
customEvent:parameter_name[event_name ] Event-scoped Custom Metric for parameter_name if registered before October 2020

Custom Metric Variants

Each custom metric that a property registers creates three API metric variants: a sum, an average, and a count. Most requests will use the sum of the custom metric. The average of the custom metric is useful for a summary statistic. The count of a custom metric is interesting if the number of occurrences of a parameter is useful to you.

You can query the Metadata API method to list all variants of Custom Metrics for a Property; here is an example of using the Metadata API method for a custom average.

Generic API Name Description
customEvent:parameter_name The sum of an Event-scoped Custom Metric for parameter_name
averageCustomEvent:parameter_name The average value of an Event-scoped Custom Metric for parameter_name
countCustomEvent:parameter_name The number of occurrences of an Event-scoped Custom Metric for parameter_name

Conversion Rate Metrics For One Conversion

Each conversion event that you register on a property creates Conversion Rate metrics that you can request in reports. There are two conversion rate metrics for each conversion: session-based conversion rate for one conversion and user-based conversion rate for one conversion.

You can query the Metadata API method to list all conversion rate metrics for one specific conversion for a Property. If you try to request the conversion rate for an event that is not registered as a conversion, the request will fail. Here is an example of using the Metadata API method for a conversion rate metric for one conversion.

Generic API Name Description
sessionConversionRate:event_name The percentage of sessions in which a specific conversion event was triggered.
userConversionRate:event_name The percentage of users who triggered a specific conversion event.
