Choose your primary metric
Choose the metric you use to judge the product. Changing this selection changes the overview's emphasis, not how events are collected.
Set the primary metric
- Open Settings → Overview.
- In Primary metric, choose Visitors, Revenue, Installs, the available active/retained-install metric, or Goal.
- For Goal, enter its registered event name and select the website or app surface.
- Save, then return to the product overview and check the metric label.
A display name edited on the Goals card is not a replacement for the event identifier. Create the goal before using it as the KPI. To delete an event that is the current KPI, choose a different KPI first.
Choose a meaningful metric
Visitors helps with audience growth; a signup goal helps with acquisition; active or retained installs helps with continued app use. Revenue requires a connected provider or verified custom payment integration.
A selected metric can remain unavailable if collection, history or sample requirements are not met. That state is not a zero and changing the KPI does not manufacture the missing data.
