Hi,

Question about Time spent (because it is so easy to understand). Does the dimensions "Site section" act as a prop or not when it comes the time to calculate time spent? (will spread forward apply to Site Section?). When leverying visits, bounces and total seconds spent, I can't seem to recreate Time spent per visit for a dimension. Thank You!

Hi @pier-olivierd92 - I believe Site Section does not have any concept of persistence (like an evar does). Some great documentation on Time Spent here:
