API Field Reference: Dimensions

A Dimension is an independent value, and a Metric is a calculated value for the requested Dimension.  In Angelfish, each Dimension is either Visit-level or Hit-level, depending on the type of data the Dimension is used to show.

API requests typically include a combination of Dimensions and Metrics. 

Visit-Level Dimensions

A Visit-level Dimension is any value stored in relation to a Visit.

Visit-level Dimensions are linked to specific Visits, and are linked to Visitors if the Profile's Tracking Method supports Visitors.

There are 6 subsections for Visit-level Dimensions:
