Messages Tab

The page is made of two tabs:

• Messages
• Notifications

Let's start with the Messages tab; the page contains three main rows.

First Data Boxes

The first three Data Boxes are these:

Active user: User who has already received or sent a message.

👍

Dashboard filters

At the top, you will find options for the visualization of the data:

Analysis Interval: Change the possible date ranges to see the information. By default, it is ninety days.

Also, you can change the Time Aggregation and Flow.

Time Aggregation: This allows you to select an aggregation level for the dashboard. This affects Data Boxes with a time axis.

Consider that selecting a different time frame might be necessary to show the expected amount of plot points when the time aggregation is modified.

Flow: This filter selects a specific Flow for the analysis.

About the Notification Ratio

While the percentage is lower, the number of messages sent in an interaction with the user will be higher; on the other hand, if the percentage is higher, it means that the interaction with the user is lower, and most of the conversations are one-way only, meaning, notifications without response.
