Describe the issue/error/question
Hello community,
I’m having a problem with the google analytics node. I want to automate one GA custom report in n8n. As far as I understand the only way to do this is to generate the same custom report by selecting all the fields in n8n node. I managed to add date range, one dimension and one metric but I can’t use the filter dimention functionality for some reason.
Any idea why this might be?
Here is the report I’m trying to creare
What is the error message (if any)?
ERROR: Bad request - please check your parameters
Unknown dimension(s): submitFreebie|RAF For details see https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/core/dimsmets.
