Is there any way to fetch Last Click Conversions, last click Conversion Vale, Click Assisted conversions, Click Assisted conversion Value using the Google Analytics API? 

These value can be seen in the Google Analytics interface. How can we fetch them using API?

Thanks,
Shobha

Shobha,

Were you able to figure this out? I am trying to achieve the same thing. Do we have these metrics exposed to API yet?

I've been looking for these exact same metrics for some time now. It doesn't seem like the Analytics API currently supports querying for those specific metrics.  I genuinely hope I'm wrong, but neither the Data Query Explorer tool or the Analytics Dimensions and Metrics Reference Guide shows how to query for this data.

I hope that I'm wrong on this second point too, but I assume that these metrics aren't available through the API on purpose.  It seems that Google only wants Analytics Premium subscribers to be able to manipulate their sales attribution data, per http://www.google.com/analytics/features/attribution.html.

If someone should have an update or a confirmed answer, I'd love to hear it too though.  This is data I'd really like to get my hands on through the API.

Thanks Dave. Your explanation was helpful. It seems Google is not making those metrics available on purpose. Did you come across any other workaround for deriving multi-touch attribution without using premuim ?

thanks,

Hi Guys,

Multi-Channel funnel data is currently not exposed through the Analytics Reporting APIs.

It is something we're looking at.

Great news - however, it doesn't appear that you can extract the funnel data on a transaction level basis (which is what I'm trying to do). I want first click source for each transaction so i can get a more accurate CPA for our mktg spend.

Does anyone know if this is possible through the multi channel API?

Hi,

Currently you can't do this.
