从 Google Analytics API 获取视图/个人资料页面 url

Question

I'm using the Google Analytics Management API to get a list of the user's profiles. Using the analytics.management.profiles.list endpoint I can get a lot of information about a user's profiles, but what I really want is a url to the page they would get if they signed into Google Analytics themselves and clicked on the profile from there. Is there a way to get this url? Previously, I was faking it with this url:

https://www.google.com/analytics/web/?authuser=3#report/visitors-overview/a{ACCOUNT ID}w{WEB PROPERTY ID}p{PROFILE ID}/

All the ids in curly braces were numbers that I just happened to notice match up with a profile's account, web property, and profile IDs.

But I soon found that the authuser=3 part is specific to me; it refers to which of my several Google accounts I am accessing this page through.

So is there a way to generate a url like that which works for anyone who is authenticated and has access to the profile they want to get to?

As a disclaimer, I do not use Google Analytics myself and I don't have anything more than a superficial understanding of it, so please provide links and explain jargon if you can.

Answer 1

It is actually possible to use authuser=myemail@gmail.com (or authuser=myemail@company.com ), using the email address of the account that you want to use to log in, regardless of the order you logged into your multiple accounts.

That is also how I create Gmail/Calendar bookmarks that would always send me to the right inbox:

• https://mail.google.com/mail/u/myname@company.jp/#inbox
• https://calendar.google.com/calendar/u/myname@company.jp

I do not know, however, how to create a link to share with other people that'll work for everyone...
