Duplicate and edit an existing Wix Analytics report to create tailored reports for your business needs.
Important:

Step 1 | Duplicate a report

When a report is duplicated, only the current view (table, chart, map) is copied over into the new version. The duplicate report will not include other views. You can customize the duplicate report through the report builder interface.

To duplicate a report:

  1. Go to All Reports in your site's dashboard.
  2. Select the report you want to duplicate.
  3. Click the More Actions icon  at the top right and select Duplicate and edit report.

  3. Click Duplicate.

Step 2 | Edit the dashboard

  1. Click the More Actions icon more.

Step 3 | Edit an existing tile

A tile is a visualization of your data which answers a specific question - For example, “Where are my customers located?”. 
To edit an existing tile you’ll need to edit the data it holds (Measures and Dimensions). You can also edit the way your data is displayed by changing the visualization type.
Important:
When you edit an existing tile you should take into account that you cannot change the tile Explore. This means that your tile topic cannot be changed, and can only contain data of the same topic (Sales, Item Sales, Traffic, People, etc).

To edit an existing tile:

  1. Click the More Actions icon .
  2. Click Edit.
