Creating a 'previous page' segment since our implementation is not working correctly

Hi,

 

Not sure the image will come through clearly but trying the create a Previous Page Segment for one specific page (ideally would want a generic segment for any page but for now just 1 page) since our Previous Page implementation is 'broken'.   Logic used below:

 

For given page:

HIT SEGMENT

in a visit PAGE <> ABC then within 1 PV PAGE = ABC (in sequence)

AND

EXCLUDE HIT to PAGE = ABC (do not want page to show in list)

AND

EXCLUDE VISIT where PAGE = ABC then within visit PAGE <> ABC (exclude visit level data for after PAGE ABC) (in sequence)

Hi @SM_AP1 ,

There is a default Previous Page report available in Reports & Analytics. You can use that for your purpose. It shows those pages which occurred immediately one page before the given page- true 'previous page'.

However, if you specifically want to create a segment that can also be used to create this report in workspace then you can follow the hack given in this blog.
