What You'll Do

In this tutorial, you will:

1. Explore a report to view custom event properties
   
   
   1. Navigate to a dashboard.
   2. View Dimensions to see properties used in the tutorial.
      
      
2. Set up user-defined properties.
   
   
   1. Add a filter to a report and set its value.
   2. Add the property to the viewable report data.

If you are using custom event properties, you can further break down report results by property. Our SDKs contain templates that make sending properties easier to manage and analyze.

Steps

Explore Custom Event Properties

1. Navigate to the Revenue dashboard.

2. In the Custom Events Table report pane, click the ellipsis icon and select Explore From Here.

   

   
   This table gives you a starting point for all the custom events that happened during the specified time range. In the left side menu, in Custom Event Properties » Dimensions you can see the properties used in this tutorial:

   

   • Three User-Defined Property filters
   • The Raw Properties dimension
   • Three User-Defined Property dimensions

Once you know the keys for the properties you would like to expand on, either select the templated name from the Custom Event Names in the Visualization or Data results, or set up a user-defined property. The remaining steps walk you through setting up a user-defined property. You may specify up to three total.

Set Up User-Defined Properties

After completing the steps in Explore Custom Event Properties:

1. From the left side menu:
   
   
   • In Custom Event Properties » Filter-Only Fields, click the Filter button for User-Defined Property 1 Filter.
2. In Filters, set the User-Defined Property 1 Filter filter to "is equal to," and enter the key as the value.
   Tip

   If you don't know which key was used to send a custom event property, select the Raw Properties dimension. Locate the Customer Event Property in the Data results, then copy its corresponding key from the Raw Properties column.

   

   
   
3. From the left side menu:
   
   
   • In Custom Event Properties » Dimensions, click the row for User-Defined Property 1. This displays the actual value for the property that you specified in the User-Defined Property 1 filter, adding the column to the Data table.

     

4. Click the Run button.
