We have 20 sites across 8 different languages. Each month I need to d/load and report on the basics - total number uniques, total number per country, time on each site etc etc. Am ashamed to admit that I'm currently cutting/pasting the data from analytics into excel. It is taking forever and I need to get this done on the 1st of every month.
Can anyone help me work out how to set up a goal to either show this all on one screen and/or download it into a CSV? I've posted in the analytics help forum and read through a few books but can't seem to find the right answer anywhere.
All help gratefully received, it goes without saying.
Cheers

Hi Charon,
You can extract a lot of information from Google Analytics but you will actually need to do some programming to extract the data.
You can find all the necessary information at: http://code.google.com/apis/analytics/docs/gdata/gdataDeveloperGuide.html
Does that help at all?
regards,
Denis

I hope you can get all the dashboard report in pdf format autometically on the scheduled dates for any given websites. that will be preventing you by doing all the manual copy pasting work but you need to compromise on the format with pdf instead of excel / csv.

Hi Charon,
From any screen at the very top you can select email. That drops down a menu that has "Schedule" as an option. Select "Schedule" and then it will prompt you to select a file type (PDF, csv, etc). Then it will prompt you for an email address. And you're done!
If there isn't one report that does it for you, you can also create custom reports.
