Overview

This node integrates with the Matomo API to perform various analytics and management operations. It supports multiple resources and operations, allowing users to query and manipulate data such as visits summary, actions, goals, custom reports, and more. The node is useful for automating data retrieval and management tasks in Matomo, such as fetching visit metrics, managing A/B tests, handling user data, and generating reports. For example, it can be used to get a pretty formatted total visit length for a website, retrieve user flow data, or manage custom alerts.

Use Case Examples

1. Get total visit length in a user-friendly format for a specific site and period.
2. Retrieve detailed user flow data to analyze visitor behavior.
3. Manage A/B testing experiments by adding, updating, or finishing experiments.
