In all the previous API versions we always retrieved a report with all the conversions (conv, convValue, purchases, purchaseValue, leads, leadValue, signup, signupValue, default, defaultValue, pageviews, pageviewValue). In the 201101 reporting this has changed, now you can only include the columns Conversions and ConversionValue (this is the old conv and convValue). However when you add the column ConversionCategoryName this data gets segmented by the category of the conversion This behaviour is mentioned in the documentation: To retrieve conversion-related fields (such as v13’s LeadCount, LeadValue, PageViewCount, PageViewValue, SalesCount, SalesValue, SignupCount and SignupValue), include the ConversionCategoryName field. Your report will be segmented by the category of the conversion, and Count and Value will refer to Conversions and ConversionValue respectively. This works fine (not as simple as the old version, but i can make it work). However, I run into 1 problem: How can I get the old "conv" values and the specified conversion values in 1 report? Because when I don't include the ConversionCategoryName, the Conversions and ConversionValue columns represent the old "conv" and "convValue" columns. But when I include the ConversionCategoryName column, these values represent the values for that specific conversion type. However: I want to know all values: the global conversion value, and the specified values. And at this moment I don't see any other solution than pulling 2 reports (which will cost me double API quotum). I have been looking if it is possible to summarize the specified columns but this doesn't work (I can't find the logic of the global conversion value). Does anybody has a solution for this? Or is the only possible way to retrieve 2 reports??
