Overview

You can use Pathway diagrams to visualize all user journeys across your application to analyze the critical path.

Each node represents a view the user visited. The thickness of each node represents the count of user sessions on that page. A page with fewer visitors has a thinner node in the diagram.

If a user visits the same page multiple times during their session, that page is only counted once.

Actions are not supported in the Pathways diagram.

Build a Pathways diagram

View the default diagram

1. Navigate to Product Analytics > User Journeys.
2. Click Pathways if it’s not already selected. This displays the default visualization that represents the most popular user journeys in your application.

Start or end the diagram at a given view

You can use the left menu to customize this diagram and display:

• the steps users took after visiting a given view
• the steps users took before visiting a given view

The example below displays the four steps that users in the United States take after visiting /department/lighting:

Graph all views containing a given phrase

Pathways diagrams support Datadog wildcards, allowing you to build a diagram of all views containing a given phrase.

To match multiple routes, type a wildcard instead of choosing a single view name. The example below displays the five steps that users take after visiting any view matching /department/*:

Analyze a Pathways diagram

You can hover over a diagram node to view the number of sessions that included visits to that view.

Click a node for a list of analysis options, such as viewing a sample Session Replay or building a Pathways diagram that starts with that view.

Convert the diagram to a funnel

1. From the Pathways diagram page, click the Build Funnel button.
2. In the Pathways diagram, click the nodes of the views you want to include in the funnel.
3. Click Create Funnel from Selection.
