Creating Custom Metrics of ADQL Query in Analytics via API

Hi,

I have large number of queries which needs to be created as metrics in Analytics (because we can't retain data more than 8 days in Analytics, so making metrics to retain it).

Is there any tool/API or CURL command we can use to create these metrics by providing Query and Metrics name as payload/arguments?

Creating them manually is error prone and time taking

Hi Husnain

Don't believe there is an official documented API,

What we did was just open developer tools in your browser and create a new test metric, check the way the payload is structured, you can then automate or build them using Curl or any scripting method of your choice.

Ciao
