google analytics api need exact date, hour and minute
<p>Im experimenting with the google reports api (v4), im using the goalCompletionsAll metric, and is bringing the info that i need, im passing as parameters ga:medium, ga:date, ga:hour however when i pass the ga:minute parameter as request it throws me the following error: "Selected dimensions and metrics cannot be queried together." I understand that the metrics have their own set of dimensions, but i found this weird, since when i use the query explorer i add all this dimensions and it returns the correct info, but as soon as i put in the code, it displays the error...</p>
