Google calendars API error - tooManyCalendarsRequested - google-calendar-api

Getting this error, and for the life of me I can't find any documentation online for how many is too many. Anyone have an idea, or a way to find out?
Here's the official documentation: https://developers.google.com/google-apps/calendar/v3/reference/freebusy/query

You can use this function to set the maximum id, read the documentation:
Maximal number of calendars for which FreeBusy information is to be provided. Optional.
I checked it worked well with 50 items.
req.setCalendarExpansionMax(50);
Here's a link to the documentation.

The maximum calendars you can request is 20.
(i've made my own tests)

Adding ga:adMatchedQuery breaks API request

I have a script that imports data from Google Analytics to my BI. It was working for years. Recently it stopped working.
After investigation, it turns out that removing ga:adMatchedQuery from dimensions solves the issue.
I checked changelogs (https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/core/v4/changelog?hl=en, https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/changelog?hl=en, etc.), and do not see any deprecation notices. Are there?
Nevertheless, are there any alternative way of getting visitor's search term for my adds in Google API?
Update:
Further investigation showed that I can make a request if adMatchedQuery is the only dimension. Adding the second dimension (for example, my custom dimention or ga:hour) breaks the request.
For example:
https://ga-dev-tools.appspot.com/query-explorer/?start-date=2022-09-01&end-date=2022-09-08&metrics=ga%3AgoalCompletionsAll&dimensions=ga%3Asource%2Cga%3Amedium%2Cga%3AadKeywordMatchType%2Cga%3AadMatchedQuery%2Cga%3Acountry%2Cga%3Adate%2Cga%3Ahour&sort=-ga%3AgoalCompletionsAll%2C-ga%3Adate&ids=ANALYTICS_ID produces empty set.
https://ga-dev-tools.appspot.com/query-explorer/?start-date=2022-09-01&end-date=2022-09-08&metrics=ga%3AgoalCompletionsAll&dimensions=ga%3Asource%2Cga%3Amedium%2Cga%3AadKeywordMatchType%2Cga%3AadMatchedQuery%2Cga%3Acountry%2Cga%3Adate%2C&sort=-ga%3AgoalCompletionsAll%2C-ga%3Adate&ids=ANALYTICS_ID gives me results.
The only difference is that I removed ga:hour from the list of dimensions in the second link.
Same here, it seems google made an update on Sept. 1 to restrict search queries that don't meet their higher privacy threshold, however it seems like they completely shut off search query reporting in GA. Hopefully they recognize this bug and fix it.

I had the same issue and here is my solution.
Since Universal Analytics will no longer process new data in standard properties beginning July 1, 2023, Google is asking us to switch over to a Google Analytics 4 property. I guessed that it should be a way to keep us updated. So I updated my property for GA4 and I manage to access that dimension.
The ga:adMatchedQuery now could be found at GA4 as firstUserGoogleAdsQuery,sessionGoogleAdsAdNetworkType or googleAdsQuery.
I also found out that the API changed.
The service in the Google Cloud that used to bring the data was "Google Analytics Reporting API" now you need to use the service "Google Analytics Data API"
That is the quickstart Guide:
https://developers.google.com/analytics...
Metrics and Dimensions:
https://ga-dev-tools.web.app/ga4/dime...
I'm coding in Python, and that video helped me a lot:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v...
We had the same issue since 5 September.
I found a solution on github. They say you have to replace the ga:adMatchedQuery with ga:keyword.
This works for me, but not entirely sure if it is the same as adMatchedQuery, but the results look good though.
Hope this helps you too.

where to find google analytics dimensions values

I'm trying to implement my own google analytics reporting UI where users pick metrics and dimensions and then pick the filters according to what the user have already chosen and my question is there any way to get all the dimensions values? for example the dimension "country" can take the value of all the countries(USA,Fance,etc...). I've did some research on google but found nothing. any help is appreciated!
I would suggest using something like Analytics Edge extension for Excel to do exactly what you're trying to do.
If that doesn't completely solve what you're doing, the extension does pull all the pullable fields from GA. It also gives you an insight into what kind of request it sends to G to pull the data. Very useful for debugging, but also for learning the reporting API.
Alternatively, there's documentation on the API here: https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/core/v4
Make sure you know whether you're using GA4 or GA UA. They have different APIs.

Using LinkedIn API to retrieve advertising reports

I'm working on a simple app to programmatically retrieve ads performance within Linkedin. I have general API experience but this is the first time i get my feet wet with the Linkedin API.
One example from Linkedin API documentation suggest something that would get me started:
GET https://api.linkedin.com/v2/adAnalyticsV2?q=analytics&dateRange.start.month=1&dateRange.start.day=1&dateRange.start.year=2016&timeGranularity=MONTHLY&pivot=CREATIVE&campaigns=urn:li:sponsoredCampaign:112466001
I am encountering two problems:
First this example implies that you already know the campaign ID. However I am unable to find a way to retrieve a list of campaign ID's for a given account.
Second, if I manually pull a campaign ID, I receive an error: "{"serviceErrorCode":2,"message":"Too many fields requested. Maximum possible fields to request: 20","status":400}". Pretty clear error.
A little research tells me that by adding the parameter "&fields=" I will be able to limit my query to less than 20 field (I really need only a dozen anyway) but I can't find and documentation regarding the names of the fields available.
Any help or pointer will be appreciated.
please refer the link below scroll down where you ill see the field names mentioned as metrics , these are the fields.

The Dimensions on comparison of Google Analytics APP+WEB property is disabled

Last Thursday, most dimensions on comparison function of Google Analytics APP+WEB property is disabled. So we can't use comparison function.
I think it's some kind of api bug, if someone knows about this please let me know when it will be able.
error message shows 'No data currently available for this dimenstion'
Check if the Google Analytics data source contains data for the specific combination of dimensions and measures.
I think Google has done hotfix yesterday. So Today We can use whole dimension in comparison.

Mixable metrics and dimensions in google analytics

I'm doing some complex reports for google analytics and would like to ask you if the following is possible. The client wants to have just organic data for a bunch of metrics. Like pageviews, visitBounceRoutes, etc. The query I ended up with is the following:
https://www.googleapis.com/analytics/v3/data/ga?dimensions=ga:source,ga:medium,ga:keyword,ga:day,ga:month,ga:year&end-date=2013-11-20&fields=columnHeaders/name,rows,totalResults,totalsForAllResults&filters=ga:medium==organic&ids=ga:79067749&metrics=ga:pageviews,ga:pageviewsPerVisit,ga:visitors,ga:avgTimeOnSite,ga:newVisits,ga:visitBounceRate&start-date=2013-10-20
However the response is as follows:
'{"totalResults":0,"columnHeaders":[{"name":"ga:source"},{"name":"ga:medium"},{"name":"ga:keyword"},{"name":"ga:day"},{"name":"ga:month"},{"name":"ga:year"},{"name":"ga:pageviews"},{"name":"ga:pageviewsPerVisit"},{"name":"ga:visitors"},{"name":"ga:avgTimeOnSite"},{"name":"ga:newVisits"},{"name":"ga:visitBounceRate"}],"totalsForAllResults":{"ga:pageviews":"0","ga:pageviewsPerVisit":"0.0","ga:visitors":"0","ga:avgTimeOnSite":"0.0","ga:newVisits":"0","ga:visitBounceRate":"0.0"}}'
Can the dimensions ga:source,ga:medium,ga:keyword be mixed with the above metrics? It seems they can't since if I omit them the API returns an array of values 1 per each day within the specified range.
Where can I find more information about this and what categories are mixable? https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/core/dimsmets just shows all the available metrics but do not explains how they are combined and which one would be valid requests. I'm new at the analytics API and would be great any kind of help or guidance
Thanks a lot
Google Analytics Query Explorer is your friend for playing around with analytics dimensions/metrics/filters ;-)
Try http://ga-dev-tools.appspot.com/explorer/?dimensions=ga:source,ga:medium,ga:keyword,ga:day,ga:month,ga:year&metrics=ga:pageviews,ga:pageviewsPerVisit,ga:visitors,ga:avgTimeOnSite,ga:newVisits,ga:visitBounceRate&filters=ga:medium%253D%253Dorganic&start-date=2013-10-20&end-date=2013-11-20&max-results=100
Some thoughts:
Those dimensions & metrics should work -- maybe there was no organic data recorded during that time range?
Try removing the ga:medium==organic filter and see what your data looks like.
Does the profile you're using (ga:79067749) have any filters on it? If so, maybe try a different profile that has unfiltered data. (Analytics best practices -- make sure you have a profile with no filters applied that captures all data.)
As Mike said, there is no problem with the combination of metrics and dimensions you are using.
If you are entering the URL query directly in the browser problem might be the lack of URL encoding in your query string. For example, you need to convert == to %253D%253D
For example, instead of ga:medium==organic, you need ga:medium%253D%253Dorganic
If you build your query in the Google Analytics Query Explorer as Mike suggests, you can grab the direct link to your report by clicking the link symbol in the upper left:
