How to track and view single-value metrics with Measurely's Basic Metric feature.
The value of a Basic Metric is always positive. This is because Basic Metrics track a singular value, and any changes to this value represent increments, counts, or other positive measurements. If you need to track both positive and negative values, consider using a Dual Metric instead
In Measurely, the Basic Metric allows users to track and display a single value metric over time. Whether you're tracking the number of users, sales, or any other key metric, this feature provides a clear and concise way to visualize that data. It's perfect for scenarios where you need to monitor a singular value that reflects progress or performance.
Navigate to the Metrics section in the Measurely dashboard.
Here, you'll have the option to select between a Basic Metric or a Dual Metric. Choose Basic Metric.
Provide a name for your metric (e.g., "Sales Count").
To send data to this metric, integrate your Measurely API KEY into your project.
Once your basic metric is created, you can view it directly in the dashboard. Measurely provides an intuitive graphical representation, showing the trend of the tracked value over time.
Graphical Representation: The chart will show a line or bar indicating how your metric has changed, allowing you to spot trends.
