Google Analytics Event Tracking Filter not working when we have multiple filters

The metrics for my Query is as below:

ga:eventValue

The dimensions for my query is as below:

ga:eventLabel,ga:eventAction,ga:year,ga:month,ga:day,ga:hour,ga:minute

Now when I apply a filter with ga:hour==13 then I get the results filtered out for ga:hour=13 which is perfectly fine.

But When I query using multiple filters ga:eventAction==xxx,ga:hour==13 the result is not displayed correctly. My expectation is that I should be getting the results where the hour is 13 and eventAction=xxx but it gives a lot more results.

How the filters work when we have multiple filters? What is the maximum number of filters allowed? Does always the filter needs to be a dimension or metric?

Thanks a lot for your time.

Your filter (ga:eventAction==xxx,ga:hour==13) is using a comma to separate the two conditions. With GA filters, the comma is the logical OR. If you use a semicolon instead, that will be the logical AND, which should give you want you want.

You can read more on the filter syntax here. It should answer all your other questions: https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/core/v3/reference#filters
