Navigating to other reports

Taping on the page name in the “Top content” column will open an overlay with the Content Report of that specific page.

  • The breadcrumbs can lead you to the Global Report or back to the Space Report.

The date range and metric grouping selected in one report will automatically be adapted to the other reports.

Saving and sharing reports

This is useful for the following reasons:

  • You can copy and share the URL with co-workers with the same access permission.

  • You can save the URL to access a customized report quickly.
