    Turns out, the issue was with scopes – specifically, mixing up session and event ones. The ‘transactions’ data is session scoped, while the other stuff I was pulling in was event scoped. So the numbers I was getting were basically useless, because they weren’t compatible. Weirdly, the API let me do this while the dashboard wouldn’t. To fix this, I’m now pulling the ‘conversions’ data, only for ‘purchase’ events.
