IQY file change

Access keys are now parameter in a generic IQY, which has several advantages:

  • Eliminates complexity of generating your own IQY files
  • Key can exist in a single cell instead of being embedded in each query
  • Time-limited keys now easy to manage (previously required a macro to update)
  • Key can be scoped to GA credential, account, web property, or profile
  • “Freeze” report by clearing key cell

Custom variables now supported

The ten Google custom variable dimensions can be used in queries. In addition we have added 5 dimensions sp:customVar[1-5] which report results as <variable>=<value>

Two timeframes now supported

A query timeframe clause may now specify two timeframes. For example:

TIMEFRAME lastMonth, lastMonth2
TIMEFRAME yearToDate, lastCalendarYear

When such a query is used with an Excel IQY file, the result will be that all colums are split into “current”, “previous”, and “change”, where the change column show the percent change between the two periods.

Note: only in Excel IQY results will you observe this new result shaping for two timeframes. In the query tool you will only see the values for the first time period.
