Add Calculated Metric Cards in Usage Analytics Dashboards
Usage analytics dashboards offer many ways to review the data collected by Coveo Usage Analytics (Coveo UA)(see Review and Manage Dashboards).
You can, among other things, add calculated metric cards to dashboards to quickly overview the importance of a metric value in your organization. For example, you can use those cards to measure the ratio of visits on your customer support website with at least one user query to the total number of visits.
