Will grouping be applied to computed metrics in GA?
Let me show you an example of what I am asking here.
I have a computed metric. It has the following formula {{metric1}}/{{metric2}}
and it is called metric
.
Now I want to create a report. Will dimension be taken into consideration when computing the computed metric value?
For instance, total aggregated metric1
value is 10, and total aggregated value for metric2
is 2. Now, out of those 10 in metric1
5 have dimension called dimension
being equal to dimension1
, 2 have the dimension being equal dimension2
and 3 dimension3
.
If I create a report with two columns dimension
and metric
, will I get the following three lines:
dimension1
2.5 (which is 5/2)
dimension2
1 (which is 2/2)
dimension3
1.5 (which is 3/2)
?
yes, that's exactly how calculated metric supposed to work. you can easily cross check this by creating a custom report with dimension
and metric
, metric1
and metric2
