We're excited to introduce a powerful new feature in LiveSession – Event Properties Aggregation!

With this update, you can now perform sum, average, minimum, and maximum calculations on event properties directly within Metrics. This functionality gives you the ability to derive deeper insights from your custom events, such as:

• Calculating the total revenue from subscriptions.
• Finding the average subscription price.
• Identifying the highest or lowest values for any tracked property.

This feature opens up new possibilities for data analysis, enabling you to easily track and measure key metrics relevant to your business.

We're thrilled to introduce a new feature you've been asking for Refining events in LiveSession! 

The "Refine Events" feature allows users to add event properties to their custom events for more detailed analysis and insights. By refining events with specific properties and values, users can filter sessions, create metrics, and add funnel steps that provide granular details about user interactions. 

You can pass any properties you want. For e-commerce, this could include information about the value of the product added to the cart, the name of the product, or the quantity. For SaaS products, it could be the name of the plan, the currency, the number of users, and more. This flexibility allows you to capture a wide range of data points to enrich your event tracking and analysis.

Unlock Detailed Insights with Refine Event

• Add Custom Events with properties: Enhance your custom events by adding specific properties and values. For instance, refine a "Signup" event with properties like "from" and values such as "Header," "Hero," or "Footer" to gain more context on user actions. See how to add Custom Events
• Filter Sessions: Use refined custom events to filter sessions based on specific criteria. Analyze user behavior more precisely by focusing on refined properties.
• Create Detailed Metrics: Develop metrics that provide insights into specific user interactions, like the conversion rate of users signing up from different sections of your site.
• Add Funnel Steps: Incorporate refined events into your funnel analysis for a clearer understanding of user journeys and behaviors.

Future Enhancements

We're planning to extend the Refine Event feature to include properties for all events, not just custom events. Soon, you'll be able to refine standard events such as "Clicked" or "Visited URL" events.

Note

The Refine Event feature currently works only for custom events with added custom properties, available in the Pro plan. See how to add Custom Events

We believe this feature will become an essential part of your analytics toolkit, providing deeper insights and helping you make more informed decisions.

As always, we're eager to hear your feedback and see how you leverage the Refine Event feature to enhance your data-driven strategies.
