Get pageview's from Google Analytics API in Javascript
google-analytics, javascript, web
Solution
Analytics.js is a tracking API. It just tracks/sends data to Google Analytics.
In order to retrieve data from Google Analytics you need to use a different API. Look for the Reporting API.

Problem
I am having trouble with fetching data from Google Analytics API with javascript. I can't seem to fetch anything but lets say its something basic like pageviews. I am using Analytics.js This is the code i am using to connect to GA API: ``` (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){ (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o), m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m) })(window,document,'script','//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga'); ga('create', 'XXX', 'example.com'); ga('send', 'pageview'); ``` So how do i get the pageviews now? I tried using this code but it returns undefined: ``` ga(function() { var tracker = ga.getByName('t0'); alert(tracker.get('page')); }); ```
