Getting the exact same problem:
I am trying to get the number of followers for a given tweet. Following the metrics derived guide, followers should be
promoted_account_follows + promoted_tweet_profile_follows
But when I ask for those two metrics on my call I receive:
[code] => INVALID_PARAMETER
[message] => Expected valid metric promoted_tweet_tpn_url_clicks, promoted_tweet_timeline_clicks, promoted_tweet_search_engagements, conversion_key_page_views, promoted_tweet_profile_qualified_impressions, conversion_custom, promoted_tweet_tpn_engagements, promoted_tweet_timeline_retweets, promoted_tweet_search_url_clicks, promoted_tweet_profile_engagement_rate, promoted_tweet_search_clicks, promoted_tweet_search_qualified_impressions, promoted_tweet_timeline_replies, promoted_tweet_profile_clicks, promoted_tweet_tpn_replies, promoted_tweet_timeline_engagement_rate, promoted_tweet_tpn_favorites, promoted_tweet_search_favorites, promoted_tweet_app_open_attempts, promoted_tweet_timeline_url_clicks, promoted_tweet_timeline_favorites, promoted_tweet_tpn_clicks, conversion_site_visits, promoted_tweet_profile_url_clicks, promoted_tweet_timeline_engagements, promoted_video_total_views, promoted_tweet_profile_media_views, conversion_app_open, promoted_tweet_profile_replies, promoted_video_replays, promoted_tweet_profile_engagements, promoted_video_starts, promoted_tweet_timeline_media_views, promoted_tweet_tpn_media_views, promoted_tweet_timeline_qualified_impressions, promoted_tweet_app_install_attempts, promoted_tweet_timeline_impressions, promoted_tweet_timeline_card_engagements, promoted_tweet_tpn_impressions, mobile_conversion_installs, mobile_conversion_purchases, mobile_conversion_sign_ups, mobile_conversion_re_engages, mobile_conversion_logins, mobile_conversion_updates, mobile_conversion_tutorial_completes, mobile_conversion_reservations, mobile_conversion_add_to_cart, mobile_conversion_add_to_wishlist, mobile_conversion_checkout_initiated, mobile_conversion_searches, mobile_conversion_level_achieved, mobile_conversion_achievement_unlocked, mobile_conversion_content_views, mobile_conversion_shares, mobile_conversion_invites, mobile_conversion_added_payment_infos, mobile_conversion_spent_credits, mobile_conversion_rated, mobile_conversion_sale_amount_local_micro, mobile_conversion_order_quantity, mobile_lifetime_value_conversion_breakdown, mobile_lifetime_value_conversion_sale_amount_local_micro_breakdown, mobile_lifetime_value_conversion_order_quantity_breakdown, billed_charge_local_micro, promoted_tweet_timeline_follows, conversion_purchases, promoted_tweet_profile_follows, promoted_tweet_tpn_retweets, promoted_video_views_100, conversion_sign_ups, promoted_video_cta_clicks, promoted_tweet_profile_card_engagements, conversion_sale_amount, promoted_tweet_search_card_engagements, promoted_tweet_tpn_qualified_impressions, promoted_video_views_75, conversion_order_quantity, promoted_tweet_search_follows, promoted_tweet_tpn_card_engagements, promoted_tweet_profile_retweets, promoted_tweet_search_engagement_rate, promoted_tweet_tpn_engagement_rate, promoted_tweet_search_replies, promoted_tweet_profile_impressions, promoted_tweet_tpn_follows, promoted_tweet_search_retweets, promoted_tweet_profile_favorites, promoted_video_views_25, promoted_video_views_50, promoted_tweet_search_impressions, conversion_downloads, promoted_tweet_search_media_views, got “promoted_account_follows” for metrics
[parameter] => metrics
The metrics appear on the Analytics panel, so the client wants to see that on our application as well.
The call is made using PHP:
$session->getAds(“stats/accounts/” . $accountId . “/promoted_tweets/”. $tweetAdId, array(‘start_time’ => $start_time, ‘granularity’ => ‘TOTAL’, ‘metrics’ => $metricsList));
Where $metricsList contains all the metrics I need. As soon as I remove both promoted_account_follows and promoted_tweet_profile_follows, the call starts to work.
