Today Google announced that the Multi-channel funnel (MCF) data within Google analytics is now available to export with the API.
And today we are releasing V1.4 of Analytics Canvas, with full support.
What does this mean? It means you can now understand your conversions and how people are getting to your site like never before.
It also means now you can Automate your multi-channel funnel reporting with Analytics Canvas just as you can automate your core Google Analytics reports.
Google has exposed this awesome data by adding two new APIs: MCF Conversion Path and MCF Interactions.
These are new APIs, on top of the existing Core Reporting API. Each one has a specific set of dimensions and metrics that can be used to create queries on the multi-channel funnel data.
As part of Google’s trusted developer program, we’ve had access to these new APIs for a while and have already been taking advantage of the new power in test cases.
To learn more about how a top level consultancy is using Analytics Canvas and this new API, check out the Cardinal Path blog post where Stephane Hamel uses Analytics Canvas and Tableau to gain new insight into online ticket sales for Lollapalooza 2012.

What does having access to multi channel funnel data do for you?
