Metrics

Metrics allow you to extract values from events. You can think of metrics as specific statistics based on events. An example of a metric could be:

• Average order value
• Percentage of users who have completed a purchase
• Number of users who have visited a specific page

Accessing Metrics

Metrics are project scoped and can be accessed in Metrics tab within project page. You can create, edit and delete metrics from this page.

• Name - Name of the metric
• Data source - Choose an event as source from which the metric will be calculated
• Event property - Choose a property of the event to calculate the metric. It can be either a parameter that you defined for an event or the amount of event triggered.
• Option - Choose the type of metric you want to calculate. It depends on the type of event property you have selected.
