Filters

Click any row in a report, or open the Filter menu and choose what to filter by. Search or tick one or more values, which show their visitor counts, pick the operator beside the search box (excludes means does not contain) and apply. Filters apply to every metric, graph and list at once.

The Filter menu

Operators#

Operator Matches
is The exact value
is not Everything except the value
contains Values with the text anywhere in them
does not contain Values without it

Add several values to one filter to match any of them. In is filters, * is a wildcard: /blog/* matches every page under /blog/.

Goal filters#

Filtering by a goal switches the dashboard into conversion mode, so the numbers describe visitors who completed it.

Filters in the Stats API#

The same logic is available in the Stats API with the filters parameter.
