Started a webpage that now contains a lot of analytic data. Now that I have the client GA Tracking ID I would like to move the data I already have to that account.
Is this possible?
I get the Google Analytics API, I can always fetch all the data I want, but my problem is, upon I have the data how can I send / push this data to other account
in other words, How can I transfer data?
The domain is the same, only the account Id in use was a different one (my own, instead of the client's)
It is not possible:
You cannot currently transfer profiles or account data from one account to another account.
Google Analytics does not provide any flexibility with importing, exporting, or modifying any past data. Any data you have in one account cannot be moved to another.
With GA, the only way to get data in to an account is directly via __utm.gif requests, usually through their JavaScript snippet, but that doesn't allow for any way to import past data, since the date is fixed according to when the data is sent in.
Further, the Google Analytics API is read-only, and doesn't provide any way to import or move data.
(This answer is slightly less true for Universal Analytics
http://piwik.org/ is a good alternative, open source analytics system, not unlike Google Analytics, but without some of the constraints like this.
I think now it's possible to move data from one account to another.
Check out this article:

If you need to reorganize your properties in Analytics, you can move them (and their views) from one account to another.
Moving properties lets you keep your Analytics implementation current with your business. You might be reorganizing after a merger, after an internal restructuring, after hiring a new agency, or you might be developing a new Roll-Up strategy.
This was not possible in 2011 when the question was originally asked. Google added this capability to GA in 2016 (source). In addition to Google's documentation which engray provided, there are several blog posts which discuss how.
How to transfer a Google Analytics property from one Google Account to another
How to Move a Property to Another Account in Google Analytics
How to move a property:
Sign in to Google Analytics & navigate to Admin section.
In the ACCOUNT column choose the account that contains the property you want to move.
In the PROPERTY column, select the property you want to move.
Click Property Settings, then click Move property.
Select the destination account.
Choose your permissions settings.
Click Move.
Confirm data processing, then click Save.
Might be possible to do this as i was curious and found a few forum posts mentioning it:
Log into GA.
Goto the Account List.
Find your web property, you can't click the 'property' itself but a profile under it...
Then click on Admin on top-right side.
Go 'Up' a Level.
For example the breadcrumb says:
'Account list' › 'FOO (www.foo.com)' › 'FOO (www.foo.com) - (Default Profile)'
and now the breadcrumb should say when you click 2nd breadcrumb link:
'Account list' › 'FOO (www.foo.com)'
Now you have an option to add other users to this whole web property by going to the Users tab.
Add an Administrator user to this specific property. You can setup this user for them on gmail that they can change the password later after you set it up (or use their Google Account email they provide and maybe walk through with them to make sure they do it correctly).
Then login as that user, and delete the old user. Then that should 'transfer' to a new account.
What I do in this situation - export all data from Google account and import it into Tableau or QlickView. And use desktop analysis. In any case these data will be actual no more than 2 years.

I'd like students to be able to access the first couple of lessons in Moodle before being presented with a request for payment. I've searched for ages on Google and found nothing, and also searched for all the possible terms I could think of here, and again come up short. Apologies therefore for the lack of contributing research/evidence.
I'm using Paypal as the chosen method of payment at the moment. Moodle is version 3.2.
Is there a way to add this kind of option to the 'access restrictions' in the courses themselves?
There isn't an existing way to restrict activity access based on the users enrolment type.
Without writing some custom code, the easiest way to do this is probably to have a separate course containing the pay-walled content, with paypal enrolment set up.
Add an activity to the free course with a link to the paid course. Use access restrictions to hide it until the other activities are complete.
When a user completes the free course content, the link to the paid course will be revealed, and they can click to enrol using paypal.
Working with the 'Track & Plan' feature of the IBM Bluemix DevOps Services generates a lot of email notifications to my co-workers and me. For example, notifications are sent out for each work item creation, modification or assignment. As the number of such mails is overwhelming, I would like to deactivate them.
If I had full access to the underlying RTC instance I would go about this as outlined in the RTC Knowledge Center - Configuring notifications in the web client.
So far I haven't been able to find a comparable configuration page in the version hosted on DevOps Services. Also, the Bluemix DevOps Services Documentation (e.g. Track and plan) didn't yield any hints in that direction.
Is there a way to disable these notifications either completely or at least partly? If so, how?
You can disable email notifications by following the instructions here:
https://developer.ibm.com/answers/questions/185255/configuring-track-plan-email-notifications.html
Find your name on a full page workitem and click on it (could be in created by, subscribed, mentioned in a comment, ...)
You'll land in a page that has your profile and some license information...ignore that. Take the URL from the browser window and paste it into a text editor or some text buffer somewhere. e.g. https://hub.jazz.net/jts08/admin#action=com.ibm.team.repository.viewUserProfileemId=_yyeAwKGKEeSa6LqyswPPCA
Go back to the Track&Plan view click on "Track & Plan" drop down and select the "Project Dashboard". You should now have a URL that looks like: https://hub.jazz.net/ccm08/web/projects/dleroux%20%7C%20TestNewSprint#action=com.ibm.team.dashboard.viewDashboard
Take the action portion from URL in 2 and replace the action portion of the url in 3 giving you something like: https://hub.jazz.net/ccm08/web/projects/dleroux%20%7C%20TestNewSprint#action=com.ibm.team.repository.viewUserProfileemId=_yyeAwKGKEeSa6LqyswPPCA
Navigate to the URL...select "Mail configuration"
Im not an expert in Google Tracking and Adwords and i had a request where a client wants to track the people who submit a contact form on a website, coming from an adwords ad.
So someone lands on a specific site on the clients site via Adwords, then fills out the contact form on that site. Now they want to know how many people coming from adwords ads, are willing to submit the form.
This seems to be very obvious, and i thought there might be already a solution for this.
Conversion Tracking already happens when the form is submitted, but they cannot comprehend whether someone submitted the form coming from adwords or or not.
I´ve been told to save the GET-Parameter from the Adwords-Link inside the database, the website is running on, every time the form is submitted. That doesnt seem to be the right way. Also there are some security issues with that.
Can anyone give some advice, how this could be achieved.
I hope i explained that right.
Thanks in advance.
If you need to save source into DB:
Simpliest way migth be parsing UTM parameters and populate the hidden fields in the form, so you know that user came from AdWords or any other source.
If you are using automatic tagging (which I would recommend), you are going after GLCID parameter, if manual, it's just utm_source.
I would do tracking from all sources (not only AdWords) - it might happen that you also need to know if user came through Facebook, LinkedIn article or so.
More on tracking sources into database here and here. More on AdWords tagging here.
If you only need to know if people from AdWords submit forms (=converts):
Chances are, that you already know. See Google Analytics. Filter out segment of people who did goal of sumbmiting form and see Aquisition -> All traffic.
More on Google Analytics here
You should check and make sure you have auto-tagging enabled. The best way to do this in Google Analytics go into the Admin > Property column > Product Linking section > Adwords Linking.
Once you have Adwords and Analytics linked up simply go back to the Reporting tab and navigate to Acquisition > Adwords > Campaigns as shown here
If you have properly set up your goals in Analytics you can use the Conversion filter to select the goal you want to view and this will show you all goal conversions that came from Adwords.
I own one VSO account, and am a member of multiple other accounts (in a single login). When I install Application Insights into a web project, I'm not given an option of which account to use, and it installs to the wrong account.
Changing projects in Application Insights is easy to do but hard to figure out unless you know the "trick." It's a two step process. First you need to grab three keys that are buried in the Application Insights portal, then you need to apply them to a file in your project.
To change your account or application just go to the AppInsights dashboard for the project you want to use and click the gear on the top right of the page (The URL is: <YourVSOnlinePortalName>.visualstudio.com/_appanalytics/_admin#application=<AppInsightsProjectName>), then click "Get configuration keys and downloads." This contains all the keys you need for the project. Copy the following three values:
Account ID (This is the ID of your Application Insights account.)
Primary instrumentation key (This identifies your data so others can't send false data to Application Insights.)
Windows Phone 8 SDK instrumentation key (near the bottom of the page). Use this key no matter what kind of app your project actually is. I.e., even if it's a Web page you will still need this value. (This is the ID for a specific application in your Application Insights account.)
Now that you have these three keys, go to your project in Visual Studio and open the ApplicationInsights.config file.
Paste the Account ID into the <AccountID> element, the LicenseKey into the <LicenseKey> element and the last value, the instrumentation key, into the <ComponentID> element.
Fire up your app and you should start seeing data from the correct project!
"Application Insights Tools for Visual Studio" 1.3.1 released 5/30/2014, allows you to select the VSO account...
I just upgraded it (from 1.3.0) and now it allows me to select which account to send insight data to.
I am playing with Google Analytics API and found that it's really complicated.
A GA user can have more than one accounts.
Each accounts can have more than one Web Properties
Each Property can have "internalWebPropertyId", "defaultProfileId" and ordinary profile id.
I might have already made some mistakes by listing them out.
Is there any tutorial/manual that I can read to understand the whole structure better?
Thanks!
A user can have access to more then one Google Analytics accounts -> Each account can have one or more Web Propertys -> each Web property can have one or more Views (profiles)
Don't rely to much on DefaultProfileid its not set for every webProperty and I haven't been able to find any documentation as to how that's set.
You can read a little about it here: Accounts and Views (Profiles) as well as What Is The Management API - Overview
I just found this in answer:
https://www.googleapis.com/analytics/v3/management/accounts/~all/webproperties/~all/profiles?oauth_token={Token}
There should be away of working that to make one request for accounts, one to get all the Web Properties , then one to get all the Profiles.
