Dynamic cohorts from insights #11153

Open liyiy opened 2 years ago

liyiy commented 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem?

Please describe. Cohorts created from insights right now are static.

Describe the solution you'd like

Cohorts created from insights are dynamic. Example: creating a cohort out of a group of persons who've dropped out of a funnel step will continuously update itself even as the funnel changes

Describe alternatives you've considered

Additional context

Thank you for your feature request – we love each and every one!

Any update on this? This would be super helpful for our funnel analysis!!

Hey @anna-rusk have you tried creating this kind of cohort using the dynamic cohort options?

The behavioural or lifecycle options should give you this?

I have tried that but you cannot chain actions to simulate a funnel drop out

neilkakkar commented 1 year ago

If you have a funnel A->B->C, and you want to calculate dropoff at the final step of the funnel, then this should work:

"Completed a sequence of events": A, then B.

AND

"Did not complete event": C

(To be clear, not saying we won't fix this - it makes sense to be able to create cohorts like these easily!)

Just giving an alternative for now, until this issue gets sorted :)
