Creating Segment at the Action Level #22712

Open Chardonneaur opened 4 weeks ago

Chardonneaur commented 4 weeks ago

Hi Team,

Currently segments are only applicable on sessions only. Piano Analytics, a competitor of Matomo is offering two modes: visits, actions. From what I remembered, in the past, Matomo was action based regarding segments.

--> Would it be possible to offer the two modes?

sgiehl commented 4 weeks ago

@Chardonneaur Wouldn't the action mode be more like what a filter as described here https://github.com/matomo-org/matomo/issues/15438 would do?

Chardonneaur commented 4 weeks ago

@sgiehl I think so, is this feature [General]enable_segments_cache=0 available in the cloud?

sgiehl commented 4 weeks ago

I don't think so. It also disables the segment cache which slows down archiving
