Use the Matomo API

Actions539

Overview

This node integrates with the Matomo API to perform various operations related to custom dimensions, including retrieving available extraction dimensions. It allows users to specify query parameters to filter or customize the API request. The node constructs the appropriate API endpoint URL based on the selected resource and operation, sends the HTTP request with necessary authentication, and returns the API response data. This is useful for analytics and data tracking scenarios where users want to manage or retrieve custom dimension data from Matomo.

Use Case Examples

  1. Retrieve available extraction dimensions for custom dimensions in Matomo to understand what data can be extracted and analyzed.
  2. Use query parameters to filter or customize the data returned by the Matomo API for custom dimensions.
  3. Integrate Matomo analytics data into workflows by fetching custom dimension information programmatically.

Properties

Name Meaning
Query Parameters Collection of optional parameters to customize the API request, such as filtering by access level, date, site ID, and many other Matomo-specific options.

Output

JSON

  • json - The JSON response from the Matomo API containing the requested data, such as available extraction dimensions for custom dimensions.

Dependencies

  • An API key credential for Matomo API authentication

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure that the Matomo domain URL and authentication token are correctly configured in the node credentials to avoid authentication errors.
  • Verify that the selected resource and operation are supported by the Matomo API and that the query parameters are valid to prevent API request failures.
  • Check network connectivity and Matomo server availability if HTTP requests fail or time out.
  • If the API response is empty or unexpected, confirm that the requested data exists and that the query parameters are correctly set.
