Edit table metrics

Within a data view table, you can add and remove metrics. This allows you to:

  • Fine-tune the data you see in the table
  • Sort the data based on certain metrics

In this guide, you'll learn how to edit table metrics.

Edits are temporary

The justtrack platform doesn't persist changes to table metrics outside the scope of a session. So, if you open a new tab, browser, or window, you will see the predefined metrics.

Before you begin

This guide is only relevant to the Statistics data view, as the other views have predefined metrics in their tables.

Edit table metrics

Click Edit metrics:

Edit metrics

This opens a view that you use to edit what metrics are shown in the table as well as the order in which they're shown.

Add a new metric

You can have 15 metrics in a table. There are two types of metrics:

  • Predefined metrics: justtrack defines the calculation for these metrics.
  • Custom metrics: you define the calculation for these metrics.

Adding either will automatically update the table with your new metric. When you have reached the limit, you'll need to remove a metric from the table in order to add a new one.

Add a predefined metric

To add a predefined metric to the table:

  1. In the Edit metrics sidebar, click Add metric.
  2. Search for the metric you want to add.
  3. Select the metric.

Add a custom metric

If you already created a custom metric in the chart, you can use it in the table:

  1. In the Edit metrics sidebar, click Add metric.
  2. Search for the metric under the CUSTOM section.
  3. Select the metric.

To add a new custom metric to the table:

  1. In the Edit metrics sidebar, click Add metric.
  2. Click Create custom metric.
  3. Name the custom metric.
  4. Configure the parameters by which the custom metric is calculated:
    • First, choose the predefined metric as the data set to include in your calculation.
    • Then, if available, choose how you want the metric data aggregated.
    • Then, if available, choose the operand by which the aggregated metric data is divided.
    • Finally, if you need to limit the input data that gets calculated into the final metric, click Advanced options > Add more options.
  5. Click Create Metric.
Custom metrics are temporary

The justtrack platform doesn't persist changes to table metrics outside the scope of a session. This includes custom metrics that you create. So, if you open a new tab, browser, or window, you will have to create the custom metric again to use it.

Remove a metric

There are two ways to remove a metric from the table:

  • In the Edit metrics sidebar, click the X icon next to the metric you want to remove.
  • In table, click the X icon in the column header for the metric you want to remove.

Change the order of table metrics

In the Edit metrics sidebar, click and drag the metrics to reorder how they appear in the table. There, the metrics are displayed from left to right in ascending order.
