Google Analytics Funnel Regular Expression

Question

I started to use GA recently. Now I'm creating funnels and my destination URL contains parameters that I want to replace with regular expressions.

Maybe it helps if I mention that I manage a mobile site that sells content for cell phones: ringtones, wallpapers, games, etc. These funnels will measure how many downloads each type of content have had.

This is the URL:
/buySuccess.jsp;jsessionid=72E8952C431483DA26AE7D33E3FE4EA7?f=133381&id=1543845&mt=VDEO

• "jsessionid" is the session id that changes with every session.
• "f" stands for frontend, which is fixed.
• "id" is the id of the purchased media.
• "mt" is for type of media, in this case a Video.

I believe if I replace "jsessionid" and "id", that will give me the total of downloads my videos have had.

So, using regular expressions, I've thought of this:
/buySuccess.jsp;jsessionid= ?f=133381&id= &mt=VDEO ？f = 133381＆id = ＆mt = VDEO

Any suggestions?

Tks!

Answer 1

Escape the question mark and replace the metacharacter \\w with one that matches any alphanumeric string. Try this:

/buySuccess.jsp;jsessionid=[a-zA-Z0-9]+\?f=133381&id=\d+&mt=VDEO

Note: regexr forces you to escape forward slashes but the expression above will work fine.
