# of events per user

[GusRubio]

Hi all

I want to run a report to analyze the number of times users did a specific action/event.

See below more clear example. I want to create a table for a specific time range, where I can see the following information:

• 1 Purchase - 1000 app users
• 2 Purchases - 800 app users
• 3 Purchases - 500 app users
• >3 Purchase - 350 app users

How can I do it?

Thanks

A quick but repetitive way would be to use Segments.

E.g.

"Visitors with 1 purchase"

• Visitor scope:
• Transactions equals 1

"Visitors with 2 purchases"

• Visitor scope:
• Transactions equals 2

etc.

Then create a table with your segments as the dimension and Unique Visitors as the metric (assuming that your report suite records app data only).

Hi Yuhuisg

Thanks for your answer.

To be sure I follow you. In segment builder I take the metric Transaction, right?

In my example I wanted to use orders because I thought it was a clear example for everyone, but in fact I want to measure the number of times a user complete a task in our app (complete a tutorial, use a feature, etc).

If those tasks doesn't exist as a metric, can I find another way to run the same analysis?

Thank you

@GusRubio I used the word "Transactions" because that's what I have in the report suites that I have access to. Ultimately, you basically use the metric that you want in the Segment Builder.
