  Google Analytics API integration with managed OAuth. Manage accounts, properties, and data streams (Admin API). Run reports on sessions, users, page views, and conversions (Data API). Use this skill when users want to configure or query Google Analytics. For other third party apps, use the api-gateway skill (https://clawhub.ai/byungkyu/api-gateway).

# Google Analytics

Access Google Analytics with managed OAuth authentication. This skill covers both the Admin API (manage accounts, properties, data streams) and the Data API (run reports on metrics).

## Quick Start

```bash
# List account summaries (Admin API)
curl -s -X GET "https://gateway.maton.ai/google-analytics-admin/v1beta/accountSummaries" -H "Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY"

# Run a report (Data API)
curl -s -X POST "https://gateway.maton.ai/google-analytics-data/v1beta/properties/{propertyId}:runReport" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY" -d '{"dateRanges": [{"startDate": "30daysAgo", "endDate": "today"}], "dimensions": [{"name": "city"}], "metrics": [{"name": "activeUsers"}]}'
```

## Base URLs

**Admin API** (manage accounts, properties, data streams):
```
https://gateway.maton.ai/google-analytics-admin/{native-api-path}
```

**Data API** (run reports):
```
https://gateway.maton.ai/google-analytics-data/{native-api-path}
```

Replace `{native-api-path}` with the actual Google Analytics API endpoint path. The gateway proxies requests to `analyticsadmin.googleapis.com` and `analyticsdata.googleapis.com` and automatically injects your OAuth token.

## Authentication

All requests require the Maton API key in the Authorization header:

```
Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY
```

**Environment Variable:** Set your API key as `MATON_API_KEY`:

```bash
export MATON_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"
```

### Getting Your API Key

1. Sign in or create an account at [maton.ai](https://maton.ai)
2. Go to [maton.ai/settings](https://maton.ai/settings)
3. Copy your API key

## Connection Management

Manage your Google OAuth connections at `https://ctrl.maton.ai`.

**Important:** The Admin API and Data API use separate connections:
- `google-analytics-admin` - Required for Admin API endpoints (manage accounts, properties, data streams)
- `google-analytics-data` - Required for Data API endpoints (run reports)

Create the connection(s) you need based on which API you want to use.

### List Connections

```bash
# List Admin API connections
curl -s -X GET "https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections?app=google-analytics-admin&status=ACTIVE" -H "Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY"

# List Data API connections
curl -s -X GET "https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections?app=google-analytics-data&status=ACTIVE" -H "Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY"
```

### Create Connection

```bash
# Create Admin API connection (for managing accounts, properties, data streams)
curl -s -X POST "https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY" -d '{"app": "google-analytics-admin"}'

# Create Data API connection (for running reports)
curl -s -X POST "https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY" -d '{"app": "google-analytics-data"}'
```

### Get Connection

```bash
curl -s -X GET "https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}" -H "Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY"
```

**Response:**
```json
{
  "connection": {
    "connection_id": "21fd90f9-5935-43cd-b6c8-bde9d915ca80",
    "status": "ACTIVE",
    "creation_time": "2025-12-08T07:20:53.488460Z",
    "last_updated_time": "2026-01-31T20:03:32.593153Z",
    "url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...",
    "app": "google-analytics-admin",
    "metadata": {}
  }
}
```

Open the returned `url` in a browser to complete OAuth authorization.

### Delete Connection

```bash
curl -s -X DELETE "https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}" -H "Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY"
```

### Specifying Connection

If you have multiple Google Analytics connections, specify which one to use with the `Maton-Connection` header:

```bash
curl -s -X GET "https://gateway.maton.ai/google-analytics-admin/v1beta/accountSummaries" -H "Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY" -H "Maton-Connection: 21fd90f9-5935-43cd-b6c8-bde9d915ca80"
```

If omitted, the gateway uses the default (oldest) active connection.

## Notes

- GA4 properties only (Universal Analytics not supported)
- Property IDs are numeric (e.g., `properties/521310447`)
- Use `accountSummaries` to quickly list all accessible properties
- Use `updateMask` for PATCH requests in Admin API
- Use metadata endpoint to discover available dimensions/metrics
- IMPORTANT: When using curl commands, us
