Hi there

Say a user visits a part of your website. Is it possible to somehow measure the time between the first and last pageview of that part of the site?

Example: A user enters the website via the frontpage and navigates to the help-section. The user navigates to-and-from the help-section and at some point doesn’t navigate back again. All in the same session.

Is there a to see how much time within the session the user has spend in the help-section?

Hi @martho,

Not really possible out of the box. You can try below report to see if that helps you:

Hi @Adam

Thanks for your help. I think I found a solution I can work with.

I’ve added a calculated measure:

{time\_on\_page,transformation\_id=sum}/{sessions}

In my report I’ve added page url as a filter to filter for the pages I want to be included in the calculation.

This way I get the average time spent pr. session. It’s not super accurate, but I can work with it.
