Conversational analytics dashboard definitions and retention
Definitions for some of the metrics found in the Conversational Analytics Dashboard.
Conversations (#)
Number of conversations started by a user that went past the greeting (ran a topic/topic discovery).
- Conversations where a user sees the greeting but does not interact with the Virtual Agent further are not counted ('ignored').
VA Success (%)
(A conversation is 'completed' && Is not transferred to live agent && Survey feedback result is good, neutral, or NA) [divided by] Conversations
- A conversation is 'completed' when 1) user reaches "Anything Else?" = "no" and the conversation ends, 2) user reaches "Anything Else?" at the end of a topic, but doesn't respond further, 3) the user manually closes the conversation.
- Formula (read-only) can be found in the Formula Override table > "VA Success" record.
Topic Flows Completed (%)
All topics completed to the last node [divided by] All topics started.
Conversation End States - found in Conversations tab and Topics > Categories tab.
