All viewed pages data until transaction from Google Analytics

I want to get the page view data from Google Analytics using R. I am using googleAnalyticsR package for getting these data using R.

Currently, I can get the landingPagePath, secondPagePath, previousPagePath, exitPagePath information. But I want to get the whole viewed pages in that session which transaction occurred. For instance, let's say a visitor came to the my website and logged in. After that s/he visited in pages titled as below in a given order

Page1 > Page2 > Page1 > Category > Product12 > Product13 > Basket > Checkout

I want to get this view flow as it is. I cannot do it using google analytics api's metrics & dimensions for page tracking.

How can I get the full 'view flow' data? Can I create such a report using only google analytics reports? Or should I try something else?

Thanks for any advice,

Best.

Google Analytics is basically a database where every hit (pageview, event, etc) is a single row. Try fetching these dimensions: Page Date, Hour, Minute, Second metrics: Pageviews

sort by Date, Hour, Minute, Second

Once you got all the data, create logic in R finding most common pathes.

Normally, BigQuery is used for such tasks (if you have Analytics 360 - GMP, payed version off GA). In BigQuery you have hit number
