Find page view in a visit between 2 specific pages

Question

Hi All,

In my website there is an transaction function which involve 3 steps:

A -> B -> C, which A is the page for starting the transaction and C is the page for finishing the transaction.

Within an visit, client can make multiple transaction e.g. more than 5

May I know how can I find pages visited between 2 transactions, within a user visit? Such as

A->B->C->(A->A->E->B)->A->B->C->(B->B->D->D)-> A->B->C

My goal is to find all the pages in bracket above.

Many thanks for the help!

Sequential segments + Flow visualisation might help.

If A, B and C must happen in consecutive pageviews, then you can setup a sequential segment where

Page equals A

Then after 1 Page view

Page equals B

Then after 1 Page view

Page equals C

Then use a Flow visualisation with 2 steps:

Step 1: the above segment.

Step 2: the above segment

(Yes, use the same segment in both steps.)

Then in the Flow visualisation, right-click the second step's bar and choose "Create segment from touchpoint". Save that new segment.

Now you can use that new segment in your report. E.g. with a Freeform table, add that new segment to the table, then add the Page dimension and a suitable metric (e.g. Page Views). The report should then show you the pages that were in between sequences of A>B>C.

Since you have visit(session) based element turned on for all transaction those that are multiple as well will always group in an unwanted manner to your description.

Are you capturing a transaction ID at time of each purchase?(I assume there is a new one even for insession multiple purchase, If yes then you could make transaction ID be session based, reset it for each new transaction.

Then each transaction would do this:

A->B->C1->(A->A->E->B)->A->B-> C2->(B->B->D->D)-> A->B-> C3

C1 pages visited all the way to C2(all relate to transaction1)

C2 pages visited all the way to C3(all relate to transaction2) not exactly what you want but I think as cloase as you will get as pages A and B are common before and after purchase.
