Adobe Analytics Python API

[Former Community Member]

Hi,

When I using Python to connect Adobe Analytics to download the data, there always some metrics or elements couldn't be found. Like I tried to download the 'Time Spent on Page' and 'Previous Pages' which are available in Data Warehouse, but it always showed 'cannot find in available elements'. I don't understand why this happened. Is this because of some limitation of Adobe API or some other reasons? Did anyone face the same issue? Thanks!

There may be some differences in metric available, but I would first verify do you have the API query pulling the correct name for the metrics you are missing? Use this reference to check what variables are available as well as find what they are called exactly.

Thank you for your reply! I think the metric name is correct. The part I don't understand is I can find 'Previous Page' in Data Warehouse, but I cannot find this element when I using the API to download it. So if I want to get the 'Previous Page' information, what should I do?
