'GA4 (Google Analytics) sessions based on UTM params
I am trying to fetch sessions from GA4 which are relevant to specific UTM params.
In GA3 we were able to use segments (sessions::condition::ga:source==X;ga:medium==Y) but I can not find a way to do this on GA4.
POST https://analyticsdata.googleapis.com/v1beta/#{property}:runReport`
Payload like this:
body = {
"metrics": [
{
"name": "sessions::condition::ga:source==X;ga:medium==Y"
}
],
"dimensions": [
{
"name": "date"
}
],
"dateRanges": [
{
"startDate": '2022-01-01',
"endDate": '2022-01-30',
"name": "current_year"
}
]
}
Returns: Field sessions::condition::ga:source==X;ga:medium==Y is not a valid metric.. Is there a way to do this via new API?
Should I use dimension filter to achieve that? I need to query on both source&medium but it is not clear how do I do this?
"dimensionFilter": {
"filter": {
"fieldName": "firstUserMedium",
"stringFilter": {
"value": "Y"
}
}
}

I think you should check the dimensions and metrcis list for GA4 they dont start with ga
POST https://analyticsdata.googleapis.com/v1beta/properties/GA4_PROPERTY_ID:runReport
{
"dateRanges": [{ "startDate": "2020-09-01", "endDate": "2020-09-15" }],
"dimensions": [{ "name": "country" }],
"metrics": [{ "name": "activeUsers" }]
}
Also at this time i don't think it supports segments.
