The “request invalid” error you’re encountering could be due to a number of factors, but one common issue is improper syntax or formatting in the API request. With the ‘google-apis-analyticsdata_v1beta’ gem, you need to ensure that all your custom fields and events are formatted correctly in accordance with the expectations of the Google Analytics API. This could mean double-checking for correct data types, ensuring all required fields are present, or making sure that your authorization token is valid and up-to-date. As you noted, the lack of comprehensive documentation can make this challenging. There are also some online resources and communities such as StackOverflow where you might be able to find additional assistance from people familiar with this gem and the Google Analytics API. Furthermore, make sure that the job you create to regularly fetch data is properly configured and is not creating an issue with the API request itself.
