Build cohorts and find power users
Save an audience by what people did, size it, use it as a filter and list your most active profiles.
Cohorts are saved audience definitions built from identified profiles. Membership is evaluated when you ask for it and is never stored.
-
In Site settings → General, enable profiles, then identify users from your site.
-
Open Cohorts and select New cohort.
-
Enter a Name of 1 to 80 characters. Set People match to All conditions or Any condition, and set Window (days) from 1 to 90.
-
Select Add condition and pick a Type: Did a custom event, Viewed a page, Event with a property value, Activity level, First seen or Last seen. Use Did not (invert this condition) to exclude people. A cohort holds up to 10 conditions.
-
Select Evaluate to see Matching profiles and a list of Sample members, then select Save cohort.
-
On a saved cohort, use Evaluate, Use as filter (applies it to the dashboard), edit, duplicate or delete.
What you should see: the Result panel shows the cohort size. Counting stops at 100,000 matching profiles.
Power users
Section titled “Power users”-
Open the Power users tab.
-
Set Rank by to sessions or events and choose a threshold under At least.
