How to retrieve firebase events data from the app?

Question

In my java android app I'm recording with the firebase analytics some events that the user watches in the app, like every time the user watch an item. I would like to retrieve this data to, for example, show the user the yesterday's top most watched items. How can I achieve that?

The only information that I can find is to retrieve data from the firebase database which I'm not using. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Just had a quick look at the below docs

https://firebase.google.com/docs/analytics/

I can't see a "get" method for receiving data. :( So I don't think they offer it right now.

You could get the same result by using the Real-Time Database.

set the value with something like: (the below is javascript but the idea will be the same)

            // get next ID
            id = Firebase.database().ref().child("users").push().key;

            // get all users
            const users = Firebase.database().ref().child("users");
            var userOBJ = {};


            users.on('value', function (snap) {
            userOBJ[id] = {username: ..., watch_item:1234 });
            users.update(userOBJ);

To get the object data

dbOBJ = Firebase.database().ref().child("users").child(id);
dbOBJ.on('value', function(snapshot){

    snapshot.val();

});
