Dashboards and Custom Reports

Question 1

By default, a dashboard is available only to the user who

Answer 1

created it and only in a single view

By default, a dashboard that a user creates is visible only to that user, and only in the view within which the dashboard was created. That user can click the Share button above the dashboard to share the dashboard configuration with other users or to copy it to additional views.

Question 2

Which menu item could you select in the dashboard to share the dashboard structure (without the actual data)? (select all that apply)

Answer 2

1. Share Template Link
2. Share in Solutions Gallery
3. Share Object

Question 3

Which custom report types can you create in Google Analytics?

Answer 3

1. Explorer
2. Flat Table
3. Map Overlay

Question 4

Which of the following statements about custom reports are true? (select all that apply)

1. You can add your own metrics to custom reports
2. You can add your own dimensions to custom reports
3. You can use custom dimensions in custom reports
4. Your custom reports appear to anyone who accesses the view

Answer 4

1. You can add your own metrics to custom reports
2. You can add your own dimensions to custom reports
3. You can use custom dimensions in custom reports

When creating a custom report, you can add your own metrics and dimensions, including custom dimensions that you have configured in Google Analytics Universal.
Custom reports are created on a per-user basis; they do not appear to others who access the view. For this reason, you need only Read & Analyze rights to create a custom report.

Question 5

When you share a link to the following types of Google Analytics assets, in which cases are you sharing actual report data?

Answer 5

None - you never share data with anyone.

The Share Assets screen, which you can access at the bottom of the View column on the admin screen, allows you to share links to your dashboards, advanced segments, and custom reports. In all cases, the links share the dynamic structure of the asset but not any underlying data.

As a separate process (within the reporting screens and not in the admin), you can email or export a dashboard, a custom report, or a standard report that does contain actual report data. Any advanced segments that you have applied to a dashboard or report appear in the emailed or exported version.

Question 6

Which of the following are required in a custom report?

Answer 6

1. At least one Dimension

2. At least one Metric

Question 7

True or False

Even though you can combine Standard and Real-Time widgets in the same dashboard, the date range applied to the dashboard will not affect Real-Time widgets.

Answer 7

True
