Connector Improvement: Identify specific fields when receiving invalid combination errors
Answered
Hi,
When we get an error message about an invalid combination of metrics and dimensions, it'd be great to know which specific fields are not valid within a given request.
Right now, we have to keep manually adding/removing ones to test out what will work and that ends up being very time consuming.
Thanks!

Hi Will,
Luke from the Product team here. Thanks for submitting this feature request!
I believe this is related to our Google Display and Video 360 connector. Unfortunately, Google doesn't provide the necessary for Fivetran to pinpoint the incompatibility of metrics and dimensions. This is an example of the error message we receive from Google in this case:
"error": { "code": 400, "message": "The combination of dimensions, metrics, and filters in your report is invalid.", "status": "INVALID_ARGUMENT"}
It's also infeasible for Fivetran to maintain the list of compatibilities because there are hundreds of metrics and dimensions and their compatibility changes over time.
Let me know if you have follow-up questions.
Luke
