Weekly Tip: Customizing Reports

If you're searching for specific data and have determined you're going to need to create a Custom Report, there's a little trick that can help jump start your efforts.

At the top of most reports within GA, there's a button called "Customize":

If there is a report that is close to what you're looking for, but you just want to add or remove a few criteria, click on the Customize button above that report.

Once you've done that, you'll be taken to a Custom Report that has been pre-populated with the metrics and dimensions of the report you came from. From there you can simply add and remove the additional items you need.
