        "fbtrace_id": "xxxx"
      }
    }

Also, when I want to get only page_impressions_unique metric still get the same error even though it shows in the docs.

Thank you for reporting this. Currently, the SDK does not have knowledge of which metrics are supported versus those that are not, and the list of metrics is not yet included in the SDK. We'll try to address this issue and, in the meantime, update the documentation to reflect the latest status.
