Choosing the Right Metric Aggregator in Zendesk Explore
How can I choose the right metric aggregator for my report in Zendesk Explore?
Choosing the right metric aggregator in Zendesk Explore depends on your reporting needs. By default, metrics use the most relevant aggregator, but you might need to select a different one based on your specific requirements.
For counting objects, use COUNT or DCOUNT. For summing values, use SUM. AVG and MED are useful for understanding data tendencies, while MIN and MAX identify outliers. VARIANCE and STDDEV are advanced options for analyzing data spread. Consider the nature of your data and what you aim to achieve with your report when selecting an aggregator.
