I'm using the GA Measurement Protocol to analyze traffic to my site.
I cannot use the GA JavaScript, however I would like to record similar data using GA Measurement Protocol.
I'm currently recording pageviews using the GA Measurement Protocol and it is working great, however the Page Load Time and Content Load Time are not yet being recorded.
I tried simply adding the
plt and
clt parameters to the pageview request, but this did not work. Not surprising since the plt and clt are only supported by the
timing hit type.
So now I'm making two GA Measurement Protocol request for each pageview, one to log the pageview and one to log the timing (plt and clt).
However I cannot find my plt or clt data anywhere in the GA dashboard.
v=1&tid=UA-0000000000-1&ds=mobileWeb&cid=01b89510-59ab-47b2-9a78-63c6b1feacfb&uip=127.0.0.1&ua=Mozilla%2F5.0%20%28Linux%3B%20Android%204.4.4%3B%20en-us%3B%20Nexus%205%20Build%2FJOP40D%29%20AppleWebKit%2F537.36%20%28KHTML%2C%20like%20Gecko%29%20Chrome%2F42.0.2307.2%20Mobile%20Safari%2F537.36&t=timing&dl=http%3A%2F%2Fxxx.com%2F&dr=http%3A%2F%2Fxxx.com&utc=timing&utv=timingV&utt=857&clt=857&plt=20558
Any ideas why the Timing data is not appearing?
Is there a better way to track the CLT and PLT with GA Measurement Protocol?
Thanks!
