Google Analytics Blog: Web Analytics Tips & Tricks: Attention Developers: Google Analytics API Launched!
The Google Analytics team has finally annouced that the Google Analytics Data Export API is now in public beta and available to all Google Analytics users. It has been one of their most widely anticipated features and a number of GAAC partners have been experimenting with it for close to a year.
So what is all the excitment about? Well the API allows developers to extend Google Analytics to new creative ways that can benefit developers, business and end users. The other advantage is that large organisations and agencies can now have a standardised platform for intergrating their Analytics data with their own business data.
Developers have the flexibility to now integrate Google Analytics data into their existing products or can create standalone applications. Developers can now create custom dashboards or gadgets, also working with individuals and businesses, they have the opportunity to access their Google Analytics data in a variety of new and exciting ways.
Google has listed some customer examples the apps demonstrate only some of the creative possibilities as there are many more interesting ways to use the Analytics API.
