- In the table itself, you can click on the report where you'll find analytical data of that report
Trends
For Trends, you'll see a graph that reflects the data for the selected events under the chosen time & divided by period (daily, weekly, monthly). You can also choose from a lot of graphs based on Time Series (line, stacked line, stacked bar) or Total Value (pie, bar, metric).
As you can easily share the graph with any of your teammates by simply clicking on the share icon and adding their email, an optional message can be added as well (for emails outside your team, they will receive an invite to your account with an Analyst role). Moreover, you can enter the edit mode to make any adjustments, download the PNG of the graph, duplicate the trend, or create a new analysis from the buttons on the top right side.
By clicking on the graph, you can see the exact users that have achieved a certain event from the added ones to your Trend, as you can export the data.
Below the graph, you'll see a Breakdown table that will show the data in a template, following the same time & period added. You can easily unselect an event that you don't want to see the related data for in the graph. At the end of the table, you can see the Average, Median, or Total for the events.
Funnels
As for Funnels, they can also be seen for a selected time period and in multiple graphs (conversion steps, conversion trends, time to convert, metric). You can edit, share, download PNG for the graph, duplicate, or create a new analysis directly from the settings in the top right corner.
One of the Graph options we offer is the Time To Convert, which can be set to show as a Trend or Distribution. In Distribution, you can select the Interval Size & Min/Max number for the wanted data, and check out the based outcome.
