Pre-aggregate Binning

Prev Next

From the Dashboard, you can set-up pre-aggregate bins on a session metric for the Table, Timeseries, and Crosstab widgets.

Use pre-aggregate bins to segment measurements before aggregation is applied. Each bin is represented by a color that conforms to a condition. You can color bins, for example, to reflect good and bad ranges.

Set up Pre-aggregate Bins

When setting up bins, you can link to a predefined threshold profile or define how you want to segment measurements.

To set up pre-aggregate bins:

  1. In Author mode, click Set up bins in the Data section.
  2. Click (Pre-aggregate) segment measurements into bins.
  3. Select the binning method:
    • Profile: Link a pre-aggregate profile. More information: Threshold Profiles
    • Segment measurements by value: Count the record if its value crosses a fixed value
    • Segment measurements by value from baseline: Count the record if its value crosses a baseline plus or minus a value (for example, 20 ms over baseline)
    • Segment measurements by % from baseline: Count the record if its value crosses a baseline plus or minus a percentage (for example, 10% over baseline)
  4. Configure the parameters.
    • For Profile, select the profile from the dropdown list.
    • For Segment measurements by ..., click Add bin + , and then set the parameters under Value and Shown as to define the condition and bin color. Repeat this step as needed.
  5. Click ✓ on the upper right to save your changes.
