Calculated Widget

Calculated Widget allow you to combine multiple metrics from different integrations into a single value using mathematical operations such as addition (+), subtraction (-), multiplication (*), and division (/).

This feature is currently in closed beta and includes limitations (see below).

If you’d like access, just reach out to our team and we’ll be happy to activate it for you.

 

How to create a Calculated Widget

Follow the visual guide below for step-by-step instructions. If needed, you’ll also find the written steps at the end of this guide.

Follow these steps to build a Calculated Widget:

  1. At the top of your dashboard, click Calculated Widget
  2. Select the widget style you want
  3. Click Add Metric
  4. Choose: 
    - The integration
    - The source
    - The metric

  5. Click save
  6. Add a calculation operator:
    - + (addition)
    - - (substraction)
    - * (mutiplication)
    - / (division)
    - () (grouping)
    👉 You can either click the operators or type them manually directly in the formula box.
  7. Click Add metric again to continue building your formula:
    - Select the integration
    - Choose the source
    - Select the metric

  8. Repeat as needed to complete your calculation

  9. Configure the Formatting options

     
    Format
    The format is automatically selected based on the chosen metrics, but can also be adjusted manually:
    - Auto
    - Integer
    - Decimal
    - Percent
    - Money
    - Time
    Fluctuation type
    Choose how performance trends should be interpreted:
    - Auto
    - More is good
    - Less is good

  10. Once finished, click Create widget

Your widget will now display the calculated KPI 🎉

 

Using multiple KPI Calculations

In Trend and Multi-Column List widgets, you can add more than one KPI Calculation.

  • Each KPI will appear in its own column
  • Each column can have its own formula



This allows you to compare multiple calculated KPIs within the same widget.

Limitations (Closed Beta)

Because this feature is still in development, the following limitations apply:

  • ❌ These widgets can’t be merged.
  • ⚠️ "Save as Template" limitations
    - Calculated Widget will be copied into the template
    - However, all integrations used in the formula must be added when using the template
    - Otherwise, the widget will not be created

Why use Calculated Widgets?

Use calculated widgets to create custom KPIs from your existing data — whether it comes from the same integration or multiple integrations combined.

Examples:

  • Gross Profit = Conversion Value - Cost
  • Lead Cost = Ad Spend / Leads
  • Combined Conversions from multiple ad platforms

They’re useful when the metric you need isn’t directly available in your data source.

What's next ?

We’re actively working on improving Calculated Widget.

Stay tuned for updates as we continue to enhance this feature 🚀
