Google Analytics User Limitations - google-analytics

In the GA Limits & Quotas documentation, they mention 200,000 hits per user per day for free Universal Analytics.
Does per user mean per GA account in this case, or is it per website user?
I'd assume 200k per website user sounds like an unrealistic limitation to reach.

its per user.
A single user on your web site which is most often denoted by their IP address unless you are sending a userid along with your hits. can max cause 200,000 hits per day to be created in your google analytics account.
Seriously though think about it 200,000 hits is a lot of hits what do you think a user would be doing to cause that kind of traffic?

Understanding the Google Analytics real-time API 50,000 call limit per project

I am trying to build an application using Google Analytics real-time API. So, I see this quota limit at 50,000/project. I am aware of 10,000/Google Analytics View limit. So, based on these values, my application can handle only 5 users/day.
Am I doing something wrong? Is there any workaround for this?
Its 50,000 API calls per day to query your data, not for collecting data.
What is this 10,000 Google Analytics View limit you refer to? It is not listed on the GA quotas and limits page
There is a 10million hits per month limit per web property, if you go over that then they ask you pay for GA360

Datorama & Google Analytics Data Stream - 403: User Rate Limit Exceeded

Having a problem where Datorama data streams connected to Google Analytics are failing due to '403: User Rate Limit Exceeded' - we have attempted to spread the credential load across different accounts but had no success with that.
Reading this article - Limits and quotas a fix is to increase the quota from 100 to 1000 requests per 100 seconds in Google Cloud Platform.
Needing some guidance on how to set up the API connection in Google Cloud Platform and the credentials needed to link the change with Google Analytics.
Has anyone else had a similar issue before?
There are a number of google quotas. These quotas are split up in project based and user based quotas. Project based quotas can be extended user based quotas can not.
Project based. (Can be increased)
50,000 requests per project per day, which can be increased.
50 write requests per project per day, which can be increased
User based: (Can NOT be increased)
10 queries per second (QPS) per IP address.
In the API Console, there is a similar quota referred to as Requests per 100 seconds per user. By default, it is set to 100 requests per 100 seconds per user and can be adjusted to a maximum value of 1,000. But the number of requests to the API is restricted to a maximum of 10 requests per second per user.
If your application makes all API requests from a single IP address (i.e., on behalf of your users), use the userIP or quotaUser parameter with each request to get full QPS quota for each user. See the standard query parameters summary for details.
1.5 queries per second (QPS) per Account ID
'403: User Rate Limit Exceeded'
Is a flood protection quota. Each user denoted by ip address or the user who is currently authenticated can max make 100 requests per 100 seconds. This number is not perfect due to clock skew. Sometimes you can make 110 requests sometimes only 90. The only thing you can do with this quota error is to slow down and implement exponential backoff. This is a user based quota and can NOT be extended. Your only option is to slow down.

How google Analytics will calculate page views when 10 computers connected in same network

i want to know as following informations
1.How google Analytic s will calculate page views
2.sessions.
3.users
All things being equal the data is collected per client, not per network. I.e. the tracking code generates a clientid per browser (or client program) that is stored in a cookie per browser, and this is used to aggregate pageviews into sessions and users.
Geo information (and IP filtering) will of course be the same for all users that share an external IP, but other than that there will be no effect on the reports.

Need details on increasing google analytics quota limits

I am a developer and working on a website that uses Google Analytics standard account. I use core-analytics Apis (for .Net) for querying GA to fetch different details such as total page hits, unique page hits, avg. time spent on a page, last viewed date for each web object in the web site.
I need to make 2 queries for each web object to get all these details and we have a large number of such web objects to fetch data for. In past few days I have noticed that these statistics are not being retrieved for some objects. In the logs I found an exception “Quota Error: User Rate Limit Exceeded” which states that I am exceeding the quota limit.
When researched this error, I found that below are some threshold limits that are applicable to GA standard account:
General quotas:
50,000 requests per project per day
10 queries per second (QPS) per IP
Core reporting API quotas:
10,000 requests per view (profile) per day
10 concurrent requests per view (profile)
I am not sure if which of these quotas are being exceeded. But I suspect that either 10 QPS or 10,000 req/view is being exceeded.
Question 1 : Could you please let me know if there is any way by which I can increase these quota limits(even if it involves extra cost by switching to premium account).
Question 2 : If we cannot increase the quota, can anyone please guide me how can we fetch details such as total page hits, unique page hits, avg. time spent on a page, last viewed date in a single query instead of two.
Please let me know in case you need any other details from my end.
First off you cant increase either the 10 queries per second (QPS) per IP or 10,000 requests per view (profile) per day
If you rerun the request and it doesn't work then you may be hitting the 10,000 requests per view (profile) per day once you hit that its not going to work again for that profile until the next day.
If you are unable to make any requests against any views then you are probably hitting the 50 k limit which you can request an extension of. It normally takes a month or so to get an extension.
As for the 10 requests a second I suggest you slow down your application and make sure that you aren't running to fast. You can also add quota user which can help with that.

Unable to add user to account. The user has reached their maximum number of Analytics accounts

Our company is currently developing an application that requires access to multiple Google Analytics accounts via a single Google Developer user. We were successfully able to add this user to approximately 100 Analytics accounts before we ran into the following error:
Unable to add user to account. The user has reached their maximum number of Analytics accounts.
This error has brought our work to a standstill. We would like to know if there is any work around we can implement or upgrade we can purchase in order to raise this account limit.
Okay, we finally got in touch with someone from Google who was able to help us resolve our problem. The first thing we learned is that a single user can be associated with no more than 100 Google Analytics accounts. Next, we learned that there are only two ways around this limit, you can either raise the limit to 1,000 by purchasing Google Analytics Premium ($150,000 per year) or you use a different user for each block of 100 accounts.
