Conversation Analytics
The analytics panel offers valuable data to help you gain insights into user interactions and popular conversation trends. Get insights into all of your conversations, or select a conversation to dig into the details.
At the moment, the "All conversations" consists of two informative widgets that offer key metrics and trends at a glance (with more on the way!).
Date picker: All analytics display data according to the timeline selected from the filter. You can choose the last 24 hours, the last 7 days, 30 days, or 90 days.
Widgets in the All Conversations panel:
Conversation Overview: Presents a ratio of total number of conversations started versus conversations that were successfully ended, allowing you to track the overall engagement and completion rates of your conversational experiences.
Here's the definition for starting a conversation and what a successful end is:
Conversation Started: A conversation is considered started when the user selects a conversation within the bot. Note that welcome messages don't count towards this metric.
Successfully Ended: A conversation is deemed to have successfully ended when there are no errors encountered throughout the interaction, and the user does not click on "start over," or completely close the bot, signifying a sustained period of user inactivity or idle time.
- Clicking Start Over triggers a new Conversation Started event.
Most Popular: This widget has two tabs:
- Conversations played: Top 5 conversations that have been most frequently used. The widget displays the conversation's name and how many times it has been played, giving you visibility into the interactions that are highly popular among users.
- Most searched terms: Top 5 most searched keywords. The widget displays the search term and how many times it has been searched for, helping you understand your user's specific needs and interests so you can continue to create engaging and helpful conversations.
Widgets for a specific conversation:
- Conversation overview: When a conversation is selected, the Conversation overview widget will display the total started and ended successfully for that conversation.
- Error frequency: Top 5 errors encountered the most in that conversation. In this widget you will see the error type and how many times that error was triggered.
