I'm interested in changing this package. But I don't know how to set up a 
development infrastructure in R.
I've checked out the sources. How do I import the changed package into my 
R-environment?

Can someone point me to the right direction, please?

TIA,
Jerry

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download latest 'RGoogleAnalytics' from download section
2. Attempt to install libraries from downloaded file using "source" function.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect the libraries to load. They don't load.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

R 3.0.1 on Windows 7

Please provide any additional information below.

I just want to install the library

RGoogleAnalytics has stopped working due to changes in GA API. Whenever you 
execute a query it raises the error:

Error in GetDataFeed(query.builder$to.uri()) : 401 Unauthorized 
 authError Invalid Credentials

Apparently, now you juste append an API key to the query in the new GA API.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Following the Example-Code for Version 1.4
2. Making every step work until ga.segments
3. ga.segments <- conf$GetSegments()

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Error en fromJSON(api.response.json, method = "C") : 
  unexpected escaped character '\.' at pos 21

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Version 1.4 and Windows 7 on R 3.0.1

Please provide any additional information below.

I'm guessing this is an old project... is there a new one that has replaced it? 
When I try installing RCurl I see:

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create OAut session
2. Define query$Init() parameters
3. Run ga$GetReportsData(query)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I have successfully run the code numerous times on parameters that contain user 
comments, sometimes receiving Chinese characters which is fine. When changing 
the date parameters I sometimes get the exception error:

This isn't a bug, but I'm stumped on real contact info for any of the 
maintainers.

I tweaked QueryBuilder() so that it's a little friendlier in accepting user 
input -- if you accidentally include a space after the comma in specifying 
dimensions, for example, I don't think you should get a 400 Bad Request back - 
instead, should just strip spaces from the URL - there's no good reason for 
them to be there.

Anyways, I made this change, and since I couldn't find any better way than this 
to submit suggested changes, I created a git repo. You can see the changes at 
https://github.com/noahhl/r-google-analytics. I may make further tweaks to make 
this more user friendly and push to that repo. I'm happy to commit here as well 
(though I vastly prefer github).

Will this package be updated to work in R 2.14?

Hi,

I have carried out a code commit to the folder 
/src/[email protected]. The code implements some 
new features (Pagination, Query Splitting, Authorization Flow update) as well 
as some changes in existing features. A sample Test code is provided in the 
file test_code_1.R.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Using any dimension (such as ga:landingPagePath) with a path
2. Running a query with that dimension (used ga:pageviews as metric)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Query should run.  Instead see this error:
> # 4. Make a request to get the data from the API
> ga.data <- ga$GetReportData(query)
Error in fromJSON(api.response.json, method = "C") : 
  unexpected character: 1

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
RGoogleAnalytics 1.3
"R version 3.0.0 (2013-04-03)"

Please provide any additional information below.
Seems like it's not able to parse the URL string in the fromJSON.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. set proxy settings with RCurlOtp
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Please provide any additional information below.

Are there plans to add a GetSegmentData function?

It would be really helpful to be able to pull that data into R similar to 
GetProfileData to analyze different segments within the query.

You document wrong command to install a package in Debian/Ubuntu Linux. You 
write incorrectly:

   $ sudo apt install libcurl4-gnutls-dev   [WRONG]

and it should be:

   $ sudo apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev

Cheers

[deleted issue]

Hi, 

I have carried out a code commit which adds a raw directory skeleton as well as 
updated the naming convention of identifiers as per Google R Style Guide.

The updated version of the code is
    /trunk/src/r-google-analytics-- username [email protected]/R/RGoogleAnalytics.R

and 

    /trunk/src/r-google-analytics-- username [email protected]/R/QueryBuilder.R

Hi, there is an error in Wiki on this site.


In Wiki/Specifying Queries, the code chunk, 

   segment    = "dynamic::medium==organic",

It should be 

   segment    = "dynamic::ga:medium==organic",

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.
# Create a new Google Analytics API object
ga <- RGoogleAnalytics()
ga.profiles <- ga$GetProfileData(access_token)
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Variables will copied 
Instead, i am getting an error

> ga <- RGoogleAnalytics()
Error: could not find function "RGoogleAnalytics"
> ga.profiles <- ga$GetProfileData(access_token)
Error: object 'ga' not found 


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
R 3.0.1

Please provide any additional information below.
Also request you to please tell me whether we need to run the whole process of 
access token again when we open the R console next time. 

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Update R to the latest version (3.0.1)
2. Re Install RGoogleAnalytics
3.

Please provide any additional information below.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. set proxy settings with options(RCurlOptions = ...) within Rprofile.site
2. Check with getURL(...) call.
3. load library(RGoogleAnalytics)
4. run all needed steps as described on the product home page up to the 
ga.account <- conf$GetAccounts() line
5. Get "Error in function (type, msg, asError = TRUE)  : couldn't connect to 
host"
6. Find out that RCurl proxy settings are broken.

It seems that running library(RGoogleAnalytics) overwites RCurlOptions (

Removed repeated line.
