Help getting a simple set of metrics

I am a new, casual Adobe user. I want to get the view metrics for all the links on the PSS cisco.com page for the past quarter.

I tried using the Page template but don't see how i can change the URL in the template to the PSS URL.

I don't want to become an Adobe expert, i just want a easy, quick way to get information about which links are being accessed.

Hi Syd,

I like your comment. It is actually a challenge for a new user or a power user to get desired info quickly when you don't have solution design.

I would download Adobe Experience Cloud Debugger - Chrome Web Store to understand tracking variables myself or will ask for solution design to get variable info first. To your specific question -

To get the views metrics for all the links on the PSS cisco.com page:

Views metric for all the links on the pages will be equals to PSS cisco.com page views.

To get the clicks metrics for all the links on the PSS cisco.com page: (which I think you are looking for)

in workspace > create new project > blank project > select data rage  (last quarter) > search prop4 or eVar8 (looks it tracks your page link display name) > drop  prop4 instances or evar8 instances on place of metric. > save the project. It's not that bad!!

PS: variable details are based on Partner Support Service - Cisco. BTW I see a great implementation on the site which can help you get a lot of info about these links by using other variables.
