Metrics update: Nov 18, 2020

First of all, this update includes a couple fixes:

  • Visits - New Users By Month was based off of pageviews, which can be affected by ad blockers or restrictive browser settings. It has been switched to use a more robust source of events. This may slightly increase this metric going forward.
  • Visits - Unique Visitors to Date was based off of pageviews, which can be affected by ad blockers or restrictive browser settings. It has been switched to use a more robust source of events. This may slightly increase this metric going forward.

Next, we've added an additional table/report:

  • Users love leveraging our built-in query workbench and federated query capabilities, however often it could be challenging for administrators to easily troubleshoot when queries go wrong or audit what queries are being executed.
  • The new Events - Queries report in your ddw-metrics dataset now provides quick access to audit level details on what queries are being run, by whom, including what the query text is, for fast troubleshooting and effective auditing.
  • This report is currently only available for multi-tenant enterprise customers -- it will be rolled out to single-tenant customers in the next few business days.
