This question is really a question on the format of the raw JASON as retrieved from the service provider, specifically Google Analytics Reporting.
If I were to use the v3 APIs, the resulting JSON has the typical “key”: “value” pairing throughout the document. However, in the new v4 APIs the resulting JSON is formatted with a cloumnHeader clause that holds the “key” and then the data is returned as data.rows for the “values”. This really makes sense if you think about a very large number of rows.
This is the test case for the v3 version that works:
DECLARE @RawResponse VARCHAR(8000)
SET @RawResponse ='{"dimensions": [{
"SessionEventDate": "20170110",
"EventCategory": "CallToOrder",
"EventAction": "Dealer Button Clicked",
"EventLabel":"ShopOecId: 001-76J-2CT,"
}],
}'
SELECT
SessionEventDate
,EventCategory
,EventAction
,EventLabel
FROM OPENJSON(@RawResponse, N'$.dimensions')
WITH (
SessionEventDate VARCHAR(20) N'$.SessionEventDate'
,EventCategory NVARCHAR(250) N'$.EventCategory'
,EventAction NVARCHAR(250) N'$.EventAction'
,EventLabel NVARCHAR(4000) N'$.EventLabel'
) AS dimensions
…And returns this result:
| SessionEventDate | EventCategory | EventAction | EventLabel |
| 20170110 | CallToOrder | Dealer Button Clicked | ShopOecId: 001-76J-2CT, |
This the v4 style that I do not yet have working:
DECLARE @RawResponse VARCHAR(8000)
SET @RawResponse ='{
"reports": [
{
"columnHeader": {
"dimensions": [
"ga:date",
"ga:eventCategory",
"ga:eventAction",
"ga:eventLabel"
],
"metricHeader": {
"metricHeaderEntries": [
{
"name": "ga:uniqueEventsTemporary",
"type": "INTEGER"
}
]
}
},
"data": {
"rows": [
{
"dimensions": [
"20170112",
"CallToOrder",
"Dealer Button Clicked",
"ShopOecId: 001-066-Y2C,"
],
"metrics": [
{
"values": [
"1"
]
}
]
},
{
"dimensions": [
"20170112",
"CallToOrder",
"Dealer Button Clicked",
"ShopOecId: 001-1N5-IZB,"
],
"metrics": [
{
"values": [
"1"
]
}
]
}
],
"totals": [
{
"values": [
"36548"
]
}
],
"rowCount": 35883,
"minimums": [
{
"values": [
"1"
]
}
],
"maximums": [
{
"values": [
"4"
]
}
],
"isDataGolden": true
},
"nextPageToken": "2"
}
]
}'
SELECT
SessionEventDate
,EventCategory
,EventAction
,EventLabel
,UniqueEvent
FROM OPENJSON(@RawResponse, N'$.reports')
WITH (
SessionEventDate VARCHAR(20) N'$.data.rows.dimensions.date'
,EventCategory NVARCHAR(250) N'$.data.rows.dimensions.eventCategory'
,EventAction NVARCHAR(250) N'$.data.rows.dimensions.eventAction'
,EventLabel NVARCHAR(4000) N'$.data.rows.dimensions.eventLabel'
,UniqueEvent INT N'$.data.rows.metrics.uniqueEventsTemporary'
) AS reportResults
…And returns this result:
| SessionEventDate | EventCategory | EventAction | EventLabel | UniqueEvent |
| NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL | NULL |
So what do I have to do to get both of my rows to return?

At the first glance, it looks like you are missing the array references in the path.

You an use the likes of http://jsonviewer.stack.hu/ to test / view the path.

One step closer, I can now get one row of data.SELECT
SessionEventDate
,EventCategory
,EventAction
,EventLabel
,UniqueEvent
FROM OPENJSON(@RawResponse, N'$.reports')
WITH (
SessionEventDate VARCHAR(20) N'$.data.rows[0].dimensions[0]'
,EventCategory NVARCHAR(250) N'$.data.rows[0].dimensions[1]'
,EventAction NVARCHAR(250) N'$.data.rows[0].dimensions[2]'
,EventLabel NVARCHAR(4000) N'$.data.rows[0].dimensions[3]'
,UniqueEvent INT N'$.data.rows[0].metrics[0].values[0]'
) AS reportResults
returns:
SessionEventDate EventCategory EventAction EventLabel UniqueEvent
20170112 CallToOrder Dealer Button Clicked ShopOecId: 001-066-Y2C, 1
So the next step would be to get both rows to return, I have tried changing the root in OPENJSON query but to no avail.
An optional exercise would be to reference the columnHeaders rather than ordinal position in the array.
