Our target was to obtain a list of the Top Content (articles with the most quantity of pageviews)

I tested some code and these were the two that matched my expectatives

Google Analytics API HTTP Sample Code [ga-api-http-samples]
– auth_demo.py

Google Data APIs Python Client Library [gdata-python-client]
– account_feed_demo.py
– data_feed_demo.py

auth_demo.py uses auth.py for a very simple authentication method.

Then I Look through Common Queries. This was a good starting point for refining our query.

Some exploration on Dimension & Metric Reference and Filters

was needed to accomplish our goal.

First query tests where done on Data Feed Query Explorer
