[Enhancement] Add entry/exit/visit related metrics for custom report page dimensions

[SW-Vincent]

It is currently pretty hard to have some basic page metrics in a single custom report.

For exemple, there are no such metric as :

• total number of exits (to get them you need visit metric and exit page dimension)
• total number of entries (to get them you need visit metric and entry page dimension)
• total number of pageviews for the visit (you cannot get it through any custom report dimension)

On the other hand, there are disponible metrics like :

• total number of bounces
• total visit Duration
• total time spent in referring action (depending on the selected dimension)
  ...

Such metrics are important when data is processed through a vizualisation tool (ex : Looker Studio).

Summary

Adding all page related metric at :

• visit scale
• entry scale
• exit scale

Starting with :

• total number of exits
• total number of entries
• total visit pageviews

The main gain form this enhancement would be to be able to gather all page KPIs in a custom easily, aswell as being able to process calculated metric (exit rate, bounce rate, exit rate, etc.) on visualisation tools.

Hi @SW-Vincent,
thank you for the suggestion for the enhancement. I will assign it to the product team for prioritisation.

Can someone educate me on the current state:

1. Do we already track these but not visualise them, or
2. We would need to add these metrics (add data field, way of capturing, ...) and then visualise
   Thanks in advance

Hi,

I don't know if it is exactly the answer you are looking for but entries and exits at page level are aggregated already within the usual page report (method=Actions.getPageUrls).
On the other hand I am not sure that "total number of pageviews for the visit" for pages is already tracked or aggregated somehow.
