Visitor profile sampler
This article explains the visitor profile sampler, which provides an overview of the device, badge, and audience activity from your visitors.
How it works
The visitor profile sampler allows you to see an overview of the device, badge, and audience activity from your visitors. You can then select a specific badge or audience to view the raw visitor profile data from a sampling of the visitors that match that item.
Here’s how it works:
- As you enter the screen, the system begins sampling the active visitors in AudienceStream.
- As visitor profiles are sampled, the Summary screen populates the following categories of data about those visitors:
- Visitor Stitching Distribution
Displays the total number of visitor profiles sampled and how many of your visitors have been stitched using a known Visitor ID attribute.
- Active Platforms, Active Browsers, Active Visits, Average Visit Duration, and Events per Visit
Displays the percentage of visitors using detected platforms and browsers, active visits, the average duration of a visit, and the number of events per visit.
- Badges
A ranked list of the number and percentage of visitors that have obtained each badge.
- Audiences
A ranked list of the number and percentage of visitors that are in an audience.
- In the Badges/Audiences area, click any item to view a sample data set of those visitor profiles in a summary view or a raw JSON view.
- Visitor Stitching Distribution
Navigate to the Visitor Profile Sampler
To use the sampler, navigate to Server-Side Tools > Visitor Profile Sampler. Once the screen loads, the number of sampled visitor profiles will gradually increase over time. The summary numbers update automatically to reflect the sampled data.
