I created a new custom dimension on November 9th called Purchase Prediction Score. I previously had another custom dimension called Cookie Id.
So the goal of the Purchase Prediction Score is to score every returning user and each user will get a score hot, warm or cold. The Cookie Id is a string with this format: 937464.746545
I created a custom report and I found out that I have Purchase Prediction Score data even before to have created that custom dimension on the 9th. The first time I pushed Purchase Prediction Score data was on the 9th. What can be the explanation?
If you click on the shield in top of the report (over "All users" segment, not visible in your screenshot) a message will appear saying that:
The table rows have been filtered to include only the data for
"Purchase Prediction Score", while the chart and table headers
include totals for all data.
So this is the reason.

Filter male patients who completed their treatment with only one visit. Note that you will need to use the Patients data set to check if a patients’ treatment is complete or not. And you need to check the Appointments data set to check if they have had only one visit. Keep in mind that “No SHow” and “Cancelled” is not considered as a visit, and only “Attended” is considered as a visit.
Please see the structure of the data below:

In GA4, I am using a custom event to send AB Tests metadata from my Adobe Target experiences.
The code is as follows:
window.gtag('event', 'ab_test', {
'test_name':'${campaign.name}',
'test_id':'${campaign.id}',
'variation_name':'${campaign.recipe.name}',
'variation_id':'${campaign.recipe.id}',
})
Checking the network requests and the Debug View I know that the data is properly sent (and received).
In the Explore reporting feature I have created a Free from report with my AB Test Variation Name as a dimension, AB Test Name as a column, and Conversions, Transactions, Purchase Revenue as metrics.
Furthermore, I have created 2 segments, one identifying visitors having an ab_test event count > 0 and the other < 0. This segment is created at a User scope. (also tried at a session scope). But in any case, all the metrics always end up empty.
My expectation is obviously that I could correlate the exposure to an AB Test to sales and other conversion metrics.
Any idea why the data isn't showing up?
Here what I want is get the number of returning visitor in percentage in scorecard.What I tried is tried creating calculating filed but didn't able to succeed
What I tried is applied the usertype = "returning visitor" filter but it shows only number and I want percentage.
Expected result is %returning visitors
Unfortunately, this method isn't entirely accurate. GA double counts a user if they are both a returning user and new user if they complete more than 1 session within the time period that you have listed.
My work around is to blend a data source with itself: 1 with a Google segment for returning users, 1 without.
The formula for the calculated field should use these two metrics:
ga:users (Users): total number of users
ga:newUsers (New Users): total number of new users
ga:newUsers/ga:users will give you the percentage of new users, the rest would be return. So just subtract the % from 1. Like so
Returning visitor in data studio
Showing the total number of returning visitors via the Scorecard
There is 2 ways to make it
1
Step 1
usertype = "returning visitor" pie chart or in table
Just make a new Pie chart or table then add to demensions Usertype
Step 2:
Add a new scoreboard
Make a filter for scoreboard just to show Returning of New visitors.
Done !! Showing the total number of returning visitors via the Scorecard.
Step 3 showing as a %
Add a new scoreboard without any filter and just show session.
Click at Scoreboard which shows Returning or New visitors. Click also in sametime at the scoreboard which shows session.. then right click on the mouse, choise the Merge data options.
Data studio makes automaticly percentage of both data. You get it!!!!
Second Way
You'll need to create a segment for in Google Analytics to use in Data Studio
Make a segment for returning visitors in Google Analytics.
Add a new scoreboard in data studio, choose just made segment. You will see the total Returning visitors in scoreboard.
follow step 2 and 3 ..
Good luck..
Google analitycs announced today their new policy about data retention
Google Analytics Data Retention
Along with the option for choosing how long data will be stored (I chose do not delete data, obviously), there is an option "Reset on new activity".
I cannot find info about what is this option about. What they mean by 'activity'? If I don't switch it off, the option could be reset and data deleted?
It means that the counter for data retention is reset when the user visits the page again.
Image your retention period is set to 15 months.
User visits once = after 15 months the data is purged.
User visits. One month later the user visits a second time = second visit resets the counter, effectively user data is retained for 16 months in total.
I have the website where merchants sell some stuff. Each item has stats like unique views during last 24 hours, a week and a month and a number of visitors that clicked on "show contacts" button. Uniqueness based on IP. This works, there're huge tables that collects all (IP,item_id) pairs during the last month, and there're a lot of updates.
Today I dig into google analytics api, I would like to know if it's possible to use it instead of my system.
The fact is all this stat is private, available only for merchant, so I don't need to have all stat at a time (it's not compared etc.). So it might be requested on demand for the specific item.
I created service account, connected it to analytics data and it seems export works (based on this example). Then enabled event tracking for "show contacts" button.
For example, when user click on "show contacts" where should I add item_id? Is it eventLabel or eventValue? So, for item_id=1234 it should be
ga("send","event","Contacts","show","",1234) or ga("send","event","Contacts","show",1234)?
I'm confused with eventValue column in Top Events report (it seems that eventValue keeps a sum of all eventValues and even caculates Avg.Value). Does it mean item_id should be stored in eventLabel as string?
I added second, nonInteraction event for collecting item views, ga("send","event","Data","show","1234",1,{nonInteraction:true}). It count all events, but I need only unique ones (performed by unique visitors) in specified period of time (day, week, month). Is it possible?
1) The parameters are category, action, label and value. "Value" is a metric and is expected to be an integer. Since it's a metric it will be added up. So if you do
ga("send","event","Contacts","show","",1234)
you will increment a metric by 1234, not store an id. You do not want this (especially if you have a linked adwords account, since this will be used to calculate your "return on advertising spent").
You want to use your item_id as label, however label is a string. So what you need to do is:
ga("send","event","Contacts","show","1234")
i.e. wrap the value for your label in quotes.
2) Is there anything wrong with ga:uniqueEvents for your purposes ?
