How a goal is defined
- Metric — a query against a connected data source (the same builder used for widgets and calculated metrics).
- Target value — the number to measure against.
- Operator — whether hitting the goal means the metric should be at or above (
>=), equal to (=), or at or below (<=) the target. - Type — Static measures the metric against a fixed target; Change measures the change in the metric over the period.
- Symbol — an optional unit shown with the value, such as
$or%.
