I am building a workspace to show device and browser usage for a team I work with. The team is curious to see the volume of traffic to a specific set of sites by device, operating system, browser type, and browser (I included the hierarchy below):
In addition to the volume of traffic, the team is curious to know the percent of total site visitors each dimension represents (i.e. users visiting on Google Chrome 97.0 make up X% of total traffic). However, the percentages visible in the workspace are using the total of the breakdown, versus the total user base at the top of the table. Is there a way to have the percentages reflect the percent of the grand total (i.e. Google Chrome 97.0 desktop visitors make up X% of total site visitors), versus the percent of the respective breakdown?
Solved! Go to Solution.

I don't believe there is an easy way to display the % for the total within the breakdowns as you are describing. However, if you have a limited set of values that the team is most interested in, you could create calculated metrics utilizing segments for each type (i.e. Google Chrome 99.0, Desktop, Windows 10, etc.)
You could then take that and apply the filter to a calculated metric, dividing that value by the total number of unique visitors. It would be a custom metric for each variation, so not easily scalable, but could work depending on the specifics of how they are hoping to use it.
Another option could be to utilize ReportBuilder to bring the data into Excel and build a custom dashboard that would display the percentages in the way you are describing.
