You can also view the details of the users and the number of views for each user, and view a breakdown of users who viewed each of the slides or steps in case of slider and guide engagements.

You can click an engagement to view the details in graphical format and also the list of users who viewed the engagement. The In App Performance report provides analytics for the following types of engagements:
Guide Engagement Analytics
The In App Performance section provides you with detailed analytics representing how users are responding to guide engagements in your subscription.
The analytics for guide engagements has the following sections:
- Engagement view summary: Line chart representing the number of users who have viewed the engagement, over the selected time period.
- Aggregated Step Analytics: Bar chart representing detailed user activity (pass-through, snoozed, completed, dropped-off) on each step of the guide engagement as follows:
- Through Traffic: Users who navigated or moved on to the next step in the engagement.
- Snoozed: Users who clicked the configured snooze button to view the engagement later.
- Completed: Users who performed an action that triggered the engagement completion. This could either be clicking a button that closes the engagement, or viewing the last step of the guide.
Note: In a single step guide, Completed means the user actively engaged with the guide, either by clicking a button to close it (such as x or Got It) or by interacting with any navigational buttons presented in the guide, signifying they have finished the engagement. - Dropped-Off: Users who left the engagement on that step.
Note: In a single-step guide, Dropped-Off refers to users who did not engage with the guide at all. This can happen if the user navigates to another page in the application, refreshes the current page, or closes the browser window without interacting with the guide.
- Path and user information: A list of users categorized by:
- Paths: List of users and their detailed information, primarily categorized by the sequence of steps they interacted with.
In the above example, the first three users completed the guide engagement, each following a different sequence of steps. The fourth user snoozed the engagement at the first step, whereas the last users quit the engagement at different places in the flow.
Notes:
- Consider a scenario where a user restarted the engagement (for instance, using the Start Over button), or revisits a previous step in the engagement. In such instances, PX consolidates the distinct steps the user has interacted with into one path, instead of generating separate paths for each sequence the user has engaged with.
- In case a step is removed from the engagement, that step would be replaced by a dash, and the rest of the steps numbers updated accordingly.
- In case the order of the steps in the engagement are changed, the step numbers are automatically updated in Analytics.
- Users: List of users who interacted with the engagement, along with their detailed information.
