I am trying to configure A/B testing experiments in Google Analytics. I am reading https://developers.google.com/analytics/solutions/experiments-client-side and they explain that it is possible to "configure the experiment using the Google Analytics web interface". Where exactly within the Google Analytics web interface can I find the "Experiments" section to start configuring A/B testing experiments? I visited https://analytics.google.com/analytics/web/ and I do not see it there. Thank you.
Edit: The answer is at https://developers.google.com/analytics/solutions/experiments-client-side. I just had to keep reading.
Nevermind, the answer is at https://developers.google.com/analytics/solutions/experiments-client-side.
Edit: Under the "BEHAVIOR" category, the "Experiments" sections can be found:

Can anyone tell me how can I track number of views,likes,comments and shares in a collaboration and community site. This is not a Google site. This site was created using lumapps. It's a collaboration site, Which works similar to Google+, where you can write a blog, post and like/ share the same. I need a way of keep tracking the likes/shares/views on such posts or blogs, So that I can display the same in Google data studio.
I heard it's possible using Google tag manager. Can anyone confirm this OR let me know about anyways of achieving the same.
Thanks and Regards
Kumar
You would do this by sending an event to Google Analytics and using this source in Data Studios.
Please see reference on how to send events using Google Tag Manager and custom Variables.

I started to use the Google Analytics API in order to import the necessary information into R. It is working nicely, but I miss one important piece of information: in the Google Analytics website, I can have a look at hits by the domain on my website (e.g. /about, /data), but I cannot find this information in the dimensions and metrics explorer on the Google developer website...
Does anyone know how to extract this information?
Thanks in advance!
I'm trying to find a web site/resource that has a working demo of Google Analytics to use.
As I have no website etc to be able to link my Analytics account to, I have no way of reviewing/learning to use Google Analytics.
Is anyone aware of such a demo available to the public?
Are you're asking for is a site where you can see GA working?
Years ago I set up 3 unusual but extremely effective GA learning sites mainly for myself (so they are crude).
I still use 2 of them today with Real Time reporting and Chrome extensions dataSlayer & WASP.
They accept your own Web Property ID (UA-xxxxx.yy) and save it in a cookie so the data goes into your own account.
Captures data to be sent to GA.
It's currently at http://cyclonal.com.
It still uses Classic GA (_gaq) - any offers to upgrade it to Universal gladly accepted
I also cloned a site used by the GA Dev team's (with permission)
It tested almost every feature of GA at the time.
Which is at http://cyclonal.com/g (has a history of the site link in the footer)
Finally, and probably what you may want to clone/create yourself, is a free form version of the concepts behind the above sites at http://cyclonal.com/sandbox/codeExec
Let me know if that works for you.
Google team released a Google Analytics demo account: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6367342?hl=en#access You can start "playing" with this account to get familiarized with google analytics api!
I spent a few hours trying to get the "Play Store Views" and "Installs" metrics but I didn't found it how.
I checked the documentation where you could find all the dimensions/metrics but those are not there.
I hope someone from the google analytics api could helps me with this issue.
I have searched high and low for this. It would be very valuable information to have. I was unable to find the information in the Google Analytics API or the Google play APIs.
I had to go as far as double checking with the Google Analytics dev team.
This information is not available through an API at this time.
The data is available on the Developer Console.
On the ALL APPLICATIONS page, select your app and then User Acquisition (second item from top in left hand menu).
I have a couple of small packaged apps on the Chrome Web Store (that's packaged, not hosted, so I'm not hosting anything myself). I was wondering whether I can still use Google Analytics, and how to test whether it's working before publishing the app.
I'm guessing the answer might be no, because their FAQ just says this:
"Can I use Google Analytics?
Yes. Hosted apps use Google Analytics just like any other website does. For help on using analytics in packaged apps (and extensions), see this tutorial."
Anyone know if there's a way around this?
Resolution
Followed the advice from the answer, but with a couple of small differences. First, I did not modify in any way the code that I copied from GA. Second, I pasted my GA ID in the app publishing form in my developer dashboard (go to developer dashboard, click edit for the app in question, then find the GA field).
I hope this might help: http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/tut_analytics.html
I recently submitted an app and found that there is a text field for adding your Google Analytics code.
