Dashboards and Data Visuals
Dashboards
Dashboards are composed of many visualizations. Create your own dashboards and visuals with filters that meet your needs.
Use the default dashboard or create your own to fit your data reporting needs.
Data Visuals
Create your own data visuals for your dashboards
Steps to create custom data visuals to fit your dashboard needs.
- Navigate to Analytics
- Click + New Data Visual
- Select your visualization type: , , , , ,
- Use a filter or leave it blank.
- Select the Y-Axis Metrics e.g. total plays, sum of status types, etc.
- Select the X-Axis Dimensions e.g. time, device type, OS, locations, etc.
Base visuals to choose from:
- Line graphs
- Histogram / Bar chart
- Pie Charts
- Donut Charts
- Metric grid / Cross tabs
- Metric list
Filtering Data
Set one or many filters to extract the exact data you are looking for.

Dimensional Data for Visualizations
Easily create multi-dimensional data visuals and add them to your dashboard!
Y-Axis Metrics
Compare and layer your data! Y-Axis metric/s determine how to count the dimension you are measuring.
This example has multiple Y-Axises layered in a doughnut chart to compare the min and max number of choices selected by completion Status type.
Doughnut chart comparing the two Y-Axis Metrics Min number of choices (outside layer) and Max number of choices (inside layer) by the X-Axis Dimension Status type within the last 90-days.
Calculating Aggregated Data
| Operation | Description |
|---|---|
| Count | Counts the number of simulation play attempts |
| Min | Minimum number calculation for a selected field e.g. Min number of choices or errors. |
| Max | Maximum number calculation for a selected field. e.g. Max number of choices or errors. |
| Average | Average calculation for a field e.g. Average amount of time to completion. Average number of errors. Avg. time per question. |
| Sum | Calculates the total number a given field e.g. total number of move, choices, or clicks; total fails or total success |
Data Fields for aggregated calculations
| Pivot Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Plays | Count of all attempts on the simulation. Only works with count. |
| Moves | Choices or clicks by the user |
| Total Time | Total activity time (in seconds) |
| Total Bonus | Total time bonuses earned (in seconds) |
| Total Penalty | Total penalty time earned (in seconds) |
| Total Credit Bonus | Total credit bonuses earned |
| Title Credit Penalty | Total credit penalties earned |
| Success Plays | The user reached a finished node |
| Fail Plays | The user hit a fail node |
| Timeout Plays | The user ran out of time |
| Creditover Plays | The user's credits hit zero (0) |
| Abort Plays | The user closed the browser or tab |
| Restart Plays | The user intentionally restarted the Maze simulation |
| Unknown Plays | The user abandoned the session. |

X-Axis Dimensions
Use the X-Axis dimensions to sort and filter the data further.
| Sort Dimensions | Description |
|---|---|
| Plays | Unique Play session IDs |
| Maze | Title of your maze. This filter is selected automatically if you access the analytics from a specific simulation maze. |
| Status | Filter by completion status (int, inprogress, finish, fail, restart). See definitions below. |
| Time | By Time in Year, Month, Week, Day, Hour |
| Maze Link | Sort by |
| Device | Unique Device ID |
| Device Type | Desktop, Smartphone, Tablet, etc. |
| OS | Device Operating System e.g. Windows, Android, iOS, Ubuntu, Linux, etc. |
| Browser | Browser type e.g. Chrome, IE, Firefox, Safari, etc. |
| Timezone | Timezone set on the user's device. It will give you an idea of the region from where the user is playing the Maze. |
| User | Unique value associated with individual user accounts |
| IP | Unique value associated with individual user accounts |
Time granularity
Sort by time increments.
- Year
- Month
- Week
- Day
- Hour
Status types
There are several status types when a user is learning. We wanted to fully understand how a user's experience in the simulation.
| Status types | Description |
|---|---|
| Int | The user clicked the link and the start page loaded, but the user did not click start. The simulation was initialized, but not started. |
| In-progress | The user's started, but has not reached an exit node and there is still a live session. Once the session expires, the status becomes abandoned. |
| Finish | The user reached a finish node. |
| Fail | The user reached a fail node or timed out or ran out of credits. |
| Timeout | The user ran out of time |
| Creditover | The user's credits hit zero (0) |
| Abort | The user closed the browser or tab |
| Restart | The user intentionally restarted the Maze simulation |
| Unknown | The user abandoned the session. |
