View goals

Open a project, then Tracking, then the Goals tab. The list shows active goals for the selected range.

Each row shows the goal name, what it counts (a page or an event), its unique conversions and conversion rate, and whether it is still receiving. The rate uses all unique visitors in the range.

Select Today, 7 days, 30 days, or 90 days to change the range.

An administrator can add a goal.

  1. Enter a clear name.

DataVisitors treats a target as a validated value. It does not run a user regular expression.

Archive a goal

An administrator can select Archive on an active goal. Archiving removes the goal from the active list.

DataVisitors keeps the archive record. It does not delete the goal row.

Product attribution uses active goals. Define a goal before you use the Attribution tab.
