3

Connect Google BigQuery

Connect your project directly to Google BigQuery using your Project ID and Dataset ID, or upload your service account file instead. Once it's connected, you'll choose your conversion goal from the imported data.

4

Choose your conversion goal

Choose the page or event that defines conversion for this project, like /checkout. Tailkey uses this as the end point of its attribution model, and you can search for events you already track in Google Analytics.

5

Explore your dashboard

Once your goal is set, Tailkey builds your attribution model automatically. Check Top Converting Paths, Block View, traffic and entry reports, and the exit report to see where conversions come from and where they're lost.

6

Build audience segments

Define audience segments to compare how the attribution model performs across different user groups. Add a condition, like sessions greater than one, then save it as a draft or activate it right away. Segments apply across all attribution views and reports.

You can upload your data directly instead of connecting BigQuery. Reach out to support if you're using a different data warehouse.

Most teams are connected and viewing their first ranked paths in under five minutes.

Yes. Create additional projects anytime from your dashboard, each with its own goal and segments.
