The dimensions supported in queries to the Audience Export methods of the Analytics Data API.
The Core Reporting methods (RunReport
for example) accept a different set of Dimensions & Metrics
than the Audience Export methods.
Dimensions
The following dimensions can be requested in audience exports for any property.
Specify the "API Name" in an
AudienceDimension
resource's name field for a column of the dimension in the audience export
response.
API Name
UI Name
Description
deviceId
Device ID
A browser-based or mobile-app-based identifier for a unique, pseudonymous website or mobile app user. To learn more, see Device ID.
isAdsPersonalizationAllowed
Is ads personalization allowed
If a user is eligible for ads personalization, isAdsPersonalizationAllowed returns true. If a user is not eligible for ads personalization, isAdsPersonalizationAllowed returns false.
isAdsPersonalizationAllowed returns (not set) if Google Analytics can't return whether this user is eligible for ads personalization; users where isAdsPersonalizationAllowed returns (not set) may or may not be eligible for personalized ads. For personalized ads, you should treat users where isAdsPersonalizationAllowed = (not set) as isAdsPersonalizationAllowed = false because, in the most general case, some of the (not set) rows will include users that are not eligible for ads personalization.
Users where isAdsPersonalizationAllowed = false can still be used for non-advertising use cases like A/B testing & data explorations.
isLimitedAdTracking
Is limited ad tracking
The device's Limit Ad Tracking setting. Possible values include: true, false, and (not set). isLimitedAdTracking returns (not set) if Google Analytics can't return this device's Limit Ad Tracking setting.
If user-provided data collection is turned on, user-provided data along with User-ID can be sent to Google Analytics in tagging to improve measurement. To learn more, see user-provided data collection. Regardless of whether user-provided data is turned on for your property, userId returns the User ID specified in tagging.
