**Business Profile Performance API**


Update to the new [Business Profile Performance API](https://developers.google.com/my-business/reference/performance/rest) to continue getting insights on your business profile.
Explore the new `locations.fetchMultiDailyMetricsTimeSeries` API method that allows fetching of multiple `DailyMetrics`
