Do we have any provision for counting a unique click on a page ignoring the total clicks

Is there an option to count a unique click for a user on a page, eg, a user comes on a page and clicks 5 links but the unique click event only gives a count of 1 for that particular user.

Hi Anshika,

How are you tracking clicks? Is it page views on the landing page, or are you using a custom event that is triggered on click?

If you're looking at page views on the landing page, using the Unique Visitors metric should do the trick. If you're using a custom event, you could serialize the event so it only triggers once per user ID. Note that this would affect all reports that rely on this event, though!

Hi Anshika,

You can use visits instead of instances as your metric to see unique clicks per visit.
