Overview

Labeling events allows user interactions in your platform to be tracked without the need for any technical knowledge or development interference. Whether they were Clicks, Text Inputs, or Form Submissions, all can be tracked by using the Visual Labeler, directly adding the related CSS selectors, or even labeling Raw Events that have been automatically captured. Labeled events have the feature of collecting historical data that has been captured even before the event has been labeled, meaning that historical data will show for the relevant event once labeled. This data would’ve been captured by Userpilot from the moment it was installed on your web app and auto-capturing was enabled.
For Labeled Events to collect data, Auto-Caputure has to be enabled under Settings

Use Cases

  • Identify how much your users are interacting with a certain part of your product
  • Get an intuitive view of your feature usage
  • Trigger content based on user behavior
  • Track users’ activity and understand what features they are interacting with
  • Defining a goal using events to measure the impact of your in-flows on user behavior

How to Label Events

  1. Visual Labeler: This option will allow you to directly enter your web app with Userpilot’s builder to click on the desired element you want to track. This can be done directly under the Visual Labaler tab, Create Event, or by entering your web app directly and opening Userpilot’s Chrome Extension.
  2. CSS Selectors: Directly input the CSS selectors of the desired element, in addition to the rest of the settings for the related Labeled Event to be created, and show all the relevant data.
  3. Raw Events: Label any auto-captured raw event under the raw events table, click here for more info.
The Events table in the Overview tab contains all events, including created Labeled Events, and all other event types (tracked events and custom events).
Historical data that’s collected for Labeled Events (before labeling) can be seen/used in Event Overview and Analytics (report creation). While creating Segments and Content Triggering would only consider data that was collected after Labeling the event.
Changing the configuration/targeting settings of a Labeled Event affects the historical data collected as well.
