Google Events API: Total Count of Events in a Calendar - google-calendar-api

I need the total count of events in a google calendar. The v3 events API doesn't seem to offer this.
Anything obvious I'm missing? Or just not supported?

Use Events.list to retrieve all events associated with a calendar. Give it a quick run in the Try-it.
There are also sample Quickstarts which show how to list these events.

Where can i check the logs of GA4 Automatically collected events? (notification_open event)

What I want to know is, the number of 'notification_open' event divided by the message ID.
In this page, i can see the event has 'message_id' parameter.
https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/9234069?hl=en
But where can i check the logs with these parameters?
In GA and Firebase Console, i can see the total number of events.
But Is there any way to check the events with the parameters?
Thank you.
Those data are available in BigQuery export. You just have to link your Firebase app to BigQuery. From there, you can access your raw analytics data along with the parameters you're looking for.

How to delete orphaned Google Calendars + Events?

My app performs a one-way sync to Google Calendar. As in, if you create an event in my app it will be added to Google Calendar, but you can't update that event from Google Calendar.
I store all the Google Calendar IDs and Event IDs that their API gives me back so that I can update the calendars + events later.
However, I'm concerned about orphaned records. If, for example, someone deletes an event in my app but either the API request fails to delete the corresponding event from Google Calendar or my app has a bug in it, then that record will become orphaned -- it will exist on Google Calendar but I will have no reference to it.
So what's the best way to delete orphaned records?
Here are my ideas:
Download a list of every single event ID in Google Calendar, fetch all the event IDs out of my database, do a set subtraction to determine which ones are orphaned, and then delete those one-by-one.
Delete the entire calendar if I notice a mishap, and then re-sync all the events.
The problem with (1) is that it might get quite memory intensive once I've accumulated a lot of events. The problem with (2) is that a full re-sync can take awhile and those events will be missing from Google Calendar while the sync is happening. Plus, I might have a race-condition if users are creating new events during the sync.
What's the best approach? Are there any other solutions?

How to track "page views per minute" using Google Analytics Real Time API?

I'm using the Google Analytics Real Time API (https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/realtime/v3/) to track the active visitors per minute. For this, I use the metric rt:activeVisitors. Everything is working fine.
However, I want to track the page views per minute, but I did not find any overview of available metrics.
Is it possible to fetch the current page views?
You can find a list of the Dimensions and metrics available in the RealTime API here : Dimensions & Metrics Reference
It doesnt look like page views is something you can see in the RealTime API
As seen here: https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/realtime/dimsmets/pagetracking
You can use
rt:pageviews
the documentation is not really clear on the time frame. But my experiments seem to hint per minute.
The closest you can get is to use pagePath dimension and have activeVisitors as the basic metric (and the only one available, pretty much).
I don't think there is any real value in having live page view stats, you can find those in real time reports built-in standard GA reporting set anyway.

Querying Event Flow with Google Analytics API?

Using: Universal Analytics (analytics.js)
I am currently testing user experience across a site by triggering different events upon pageView. On a given pageView, multiple events may be triggered.
I am interested in determining what events (or sequence of events) may lead to a conversion being triggered. In the frontend, this can be achieved via Event Flow or Goal Flow visualizations. Unfortunately I could find nothing online regarding querying Event Flow specifically.
Is it possible to query Event Flow from the Google Analytics API? If not, are there any workarounds that would allow us to quantify impact from different flows?
There isnt a way of doing it with the API. I want to start by saying i havent tried doing this I am just going on what i would do if i did want to attempt to do this.
The flow apears to start with any of the normal dimensions country for example. My first idea was the ga:goalpreviousstep1 dimensiosn then i remembered they cant be queried with other dimensions.
I would look into ga:previousPagePath and ga:nextPagePath see what they come back with. queried along with your goal or event they might give you an idea of what the user was doing.

Copy Event from One Calendar to another

I am creating an app in asp.net for Google calendar integration. When we insert a particular event to the calendar then at the same point i want to copy the same calendar event in to another calendar and i want to do the same process in a single request. So may any one please guide me for this problem. I am using google calendar version 3 for this. Thanks in advance
Is it necessary that they be two separate Calendar events? If not, you should be adding the second calendar as an attendee of the event rather than creating a copy of the event. See the events reference and look for the attendees list attribute. This can be achieved in a single API call.
If it is indeed necessary that the events are entirely separate and independent of each other, it will require two events.insert() operations, one on each calendar. However, as long as the user you are authenticating as has access to both calendars, it should be possible to batch the two operations into a single HTTP call.
