Finding out the traffic sources for your Webpage

To begin with, add a new insight in the dashboard of your choice and select Advanced Query so that you can proceed using the Visual Editor.

1. In the first section of the Visual Editor, Metadata, choose a topN query - we propose granularity all so that you can display the information in a donut chart in the end.

2. In the next step you can choose which Data to Include. To get started, add thisApp as well as the respective App ID.

   Additionally, it is recommended to add a filter to avoid that parts of your own website are returned by the query. To achieve that add a regex filter with dimension referrer and domain as well as top-level-domain of your website separated by a \: referrer~yourDomain\.com. Please be aware that this is a rather basic regex filter as the purpose here is to show the creation of the query. More elements can be added to the filter of course.

   Once you have entered the information for the filter click on the field again and select Negate (Wrap in "not" condition) When you are finished, the filter in Data to Include section should look as follows: Additionally, feel free to add further information in the regex filter in case you want to exclude search engines besides your own website as referrers for example. This could be used in the regex filter of the Visual Editor to expand the filter: (yourDomain\.com|google\.|bing\.|search\.brave|yandex\.|kagi\.|duckduckgo\.).

3. The following section are topN Options. In the first part regarding the dimension, select type default and type in referrer two times. Furthermore, choose a numeric metric and add count. To wrap this section up choose the number of topN results to be returned, i.e. the threshold.

4. Finally, add a longSum-aggregator for the Aggregations and type in count in the two respective fields.

To wrap the creation of the insight up we recommend using a Donut Chart to display topN of the query results.
