Choosing a calculated insights stream for an activation target

Calculated Insights includes two different categories when creating metrics: aggregatable and non-aggregatable.

Aggregatable Metrics

Dimension filters are optional for aggregatable metrics and you can still aggregate on the insight.

Metric Measure Example
DateTime Total Purchases Min = The first purchase ever made, and Max = Most recent purchase made
Numeric Total Purchases Sum = The number of total purchases made

Non-Aggregatable Metrics

At least one dimension filter is required for non-aggregatable metrics in order to narrow down the attribute to one specific value.

  • Text
  • Numeric
Example
Example

If the ‘Purchase Rank’ measure = 1, the ‘Product’ dimension = Pizza, and the ‘Date’ dimension = January, you can find one specific value since you added dimensions to the attribute. If you just had the ‘Purchase Rank’ measure, that itself is non-aggregatable and there would be no value.

Note
Note

If a dimension filter is a Date or DateTime for non-aggregatable metrics, the insight appears but the non-aggregatable metric is hidden. All aggregate metrics are available to be added as attributes still.
