How to exclude users from a certain result in a dimension

By default, Adobe Analytics records the App Version at the hit level. So if a user upgrades during your reporting window, they’ll show up under both their old and new versions. The platform won’t automatically exclude the earlier version.

To analyze only the latest version a user has in your selected date range, you can build a Visitor-level segment like this:

• Container: Visitor

• Logic: App Version = Latest

This way, you’re pulling in users whose most recent version in the timeframe is the one you care about, and you’ll automatically filter out their earlier version activity.

If you also need to compare both groups (upgraded vs. not upgraded), you can:

• Create two Visitor-level segments — one for “Latest version seen” and one for “All other versions.”

• Apply them side by side in Workspace to keep your populations mutually exclusive.

For more advanced use cases (e.g., resolving “current app version” across multiple months or handling upgrades mid-session), some teams push a “current version” flag into an eVar with Visit or Visitor persistence via Launch, or do the filtering downstream in a warehouse / CJA with a “max version per user” logic.
