Flow Nodes

The entry point of every pipeline. Selects which dataset to read from and which field to pull out of it.

• Adapter — the data provider or dataset (e.g. Events, Sessions). Determines which fields are available below.

• Field — the specific metric or property to read from the selected adapter.

• Dedupe — when checked, counts only the latest row per identity (where the data source supports it). Useful for unique-visitor style queries.

Drops rows that do not match a condition. Pick a field, an operator, and a comparison value; only matching rows continue down the pipeline.

• Field — which upstream field to compare.

• Operator — how to compare. Available: equals, not equals, contains, matches regex, does not match regex, greater than, less than, greater or equal, less or equal.

• Value — what to compare against. Becomes a true/false dropdown when filtering a boolean field.

• Map target — only shown for map fields. Choose whether to filter on the map's keys or its values.

Reduces multiple rows into one computed value per group. Typically placed after a Group By or Time Group node.

• Function — how values inside each group are combined:

  • count — number of rows in the group

  • sum — add numeric values

  • avg — average of numeric values

  • min — smallest numeric value

  • max — largest numeric value

  • distinct — count unique values

Groups rows by one or more categorical fields. Usually paired with an Aggregate node to compute per-group metrics (e.g. page views grouped by browser).

• Fields — the grouping dimensions. Rows that share the same values across these fields are put in the same group. Add as many as you need.

• Multi-field mode — only shown when more than one field is selected.

  • combined — joins field values into a single composite key (e.g. Chrome / Germany as one group).

  • flat — keeps each field as its own dimension; the chart can break down by either axis.

Groups rows into time-based buckets — the foundation of every time-series chart.

• Bucket size — interval each row is rolled into: Auto, Minute, Hour, Day, Week, Month. Auto picks a sensible size based on the chart's time range.

• Missing buckets — what to do with time periods that have no data:

  • Zero — insert a zero value so the line stays continuous.

  • None — leave the gap empty; the series breaks.

Rewrites string values before they're grouped, filtered, or displayed. Handy for normalizing inconsistent text (e.g. casing) or extracting derived labels.

• Operation — which transformation to apply:

  • lowercase / uppercase / title case — change casing

  • trim — strip leading and trailing whitespace

  • append — add a fixed string to the end of each value

  • replace text — find an exact string and replace it

  • replace regex — match a regular expression and substitute (use \1, \2, … for capture groups)

  • length — replace each value with its character count

• Text to append — only for append. The string added to every value.

• Find / Pattern and Replace with — only for replace text and replace regex. Leave the replacement empty to delete matches.

Computes a derived numeric value from a custom expression. Each input connection to the Formula node is assigned a letter (A, B, C, …) in the order it was connected; use those letters as variables.

• Expression — the formula to evaluate, e.g. A + B, A / B * 100, (A + B) / C.

• Output name — name of the resulting field. This is what downstream nodes (and your chart legend) will reference.

• Precision — number of decimal places to round the result to. Leave empty to keep full precision.

Caps the number of rows that flow through. Most useful after a Group By to keep only the top N groups in a chart.

• Max rows — the maximum number of rows to keep.

• Group rows over limit as Other — instead of dropping the rows beyond the limit, fold them into a single Other bucket so totals still match.

Restricts the pipeline to events from within a rolling window relative to now. Combine with Min Age to look at an arbitrary "X to Y ago" slice.

• Look back at most — the size of the window. Pick a number and a unit: ms, seconds, minutes, hours, days.

Drops events that are too recent. Useful for excluding the "live" tail of data that hasn't fully settled yet, or for comparing past periods.

• Exclude newer than — events within this window before the current time are removed. Same units as Max Age.

The final node of every pipeline — this is what produces the chart result. See Output & Multi-Series for how multiple Output nodes combine into tabs, multi-line charts, or stacked bars.

• Output name (or Tab name on list charts) — label shown in the chart legend or as the tab header.

• Icon set — only on list charts. Optional icons shown next to each row.

• Nest by — only on list and pie charts. Splits each row into a nested hierarchy, either by another data field or by a custom delimiter.

• Delimiter — only when nesting by a custom pattern. The character or string used to split values (e.g. / to split a URL path).
