    <p>I want to use Google's new measurement protocol for sending tracking events from my server instead of JavaScript.</p> <p>This page says the client ID is required: <a href="https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/protocol/v1/devguide#required">https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/protocol/v1/devguide#required</a></p> <p>And this page says it's optional: <a href="https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/protocol/v1/parameters#visitor">https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/protocol/v1/parameters#visitor</a></p> <p>Plus, the format defined in these docs is different- the first page gives an integer as an example and just says it's "a unique value" while the second link says it should be a UUID.</p> <p>If I send either user IDs or generated UUIDs on my backend, how will Google know to link that visitor to an existing visitor session? It seems like I would need to retrieve GA's internal reference to an existing user.</p> <p>Any help is appreciated - thanks!</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
