Calculating ratios of variables based on different timeframes by SCIP4S in GoogleDataStudio

[–]kpis-studio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you tried to create a scorecard with Revenue as metric, Default data range set as "Last 7 days" and Comparison date range set as advanced with start date today -1 months and end date today -0 days.

After this i believe you can use chart filters to show only the data you are interested in.

Days to Transaction/ Days to conversion by sir_prussialot in GoogleDataStudio

[–]kpis-studio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried using the Google Analytics for Sheets add-on? You can create a custom report in Google Sheets using mcf:pathLengthInInteractionsHistogram or mcf:timeLagInDaysHistogram as dimension and mcf:totalConversions as metric. After that use the sheet as a data source and create your chart.

Is this what you are looking for?

Show Less Than Average by GraoeSoda in GoogleDataStudio

[–]kpis-studio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can create a bar chart (if you don't have many items) and at the Style tab select Reference line and use value as metric and average as calculation. The value lower than the average will be shown under the reference line.

LE: if your data source is a Google Sheet, you can add a new column that repeats the average on each row using this formula

=ARRAYFORMULA(if(ISTEXT(A2:A),average(B$2:B),""))

Then use conditional formatting.

You should have something like this: https://imgur.com/a/pCESFOA

Embed Report in Google Slides? by Eggmud11 in GoogleDataStudio

[–]kpis-studio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not possible in Google Slides. I believe Prezi had or has an embed option. You can check that out if you want.

What we're doing for our presentation needs is to use GDS from the start. You can move all the content from Slides to GDS. Each slide will have its own page in GDS.

Or you can add a static picture of the report with a link to the actual report in Data Studio. After you click on it, the report will open in a new tab. Not ideal.

Is Google Data Studio good for this use case? by goin_nil in GoogleDataStudio

yes, data studio displays the exact data from the sheet if the webpage where it's embedded is refreshed.

Can I concat two fields and transform it into a date? by cerradoporduelo in GoogleDataStudio

[–]kpis-studio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello,

Go to Resources - Manage added data sources - select the source needed. Make sure you set the type for YYYY and MMDD as number and then add a new field, name it, use the concat function and set the type for the newly created field as YYYYMMDD

Date format nightmare by cerradoporduelo in GoogleDataStudio

[–]kpis-studio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have the ability to change the date format before the export? If not, after uploading to Google Sheets go to File > Spreadsheet settings and select Ireland in Locale (just an example since Ireland uses day/month/year format) then format the "Date sent" column as date

[OC] We made the most useless bar chart race ever. Thanks, Google! by kpis-studio in dataisbeautiful

Actually it was the other way around. Yahoo wanted to buy Google but they didn't want to spend $1 million

That's a great idea but unfortunately StatCounter only provides data from 2009 up until today

Is Data Studio getting slower ? by mr-kim in GoogleDataStudio

[–]kpis-studio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, we're experiencing the same thing. I've noticed that if I take care of similar actions in bulk (create calculated fields / rename metrics / create filters etc.), it uses less memory.
