A channel can play three roles in a conversion path:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"spaced-list\">\n<li><em>Last interaction<\/em>\u00a0is the interaction that immediately precedes the conversion.<\/li>\n<li><em>Assist interaction<\/em>\u00a0is any interaction that is on the conversion path but is not the last interaction.<\/li>\n<li><em>First interaction<\/em>\u00a0is the first interaction on the conversion path; it&#8217;s a kind of assist interaction.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>To calculate the metrics in this report, Analytics looks across all the conversion paths for the conversions you&#8217;re analyzing.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"spaced-list\">\n<li><em>Assisted Conversions<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0<em>Assisted Conversion Value<\/em>:<br \/>\nThis is the number (and monetary value) of sales and conversions the channel assisted. If a channel appears anywhere\u2014except as the final interaction\u2014on a conversion path, it is considered an assist for that conversion. The higher these numbers, the more important the assist role of the channel.<\/li>\n<li><em>Last Click or Direct Conversions<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0<em>Last Click or Direct Conversion Value<\/em>:<br \/>\nThis is the number (and monetary value) of sales and conversions the channel closed or completed. The final click or direct traffic before a conversion gets last interaction credit for that conversion. The higher these numbers, the more important the channel&#8217;s role in driving completion of sales and conversions.<\/li>\n<li><em>First Click Conversions<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0<em>First Click Conversion Value<\/em>:<br \/>\nThe number (and monetary value) of sales and conversions the channel initiated. This is the first interaction on a conversion path. The higher these numbers, the more important the channel&#8217;s role in initiating new sales and conversions.<\/li>\n<li><em>Assisted\/Last Click or Direct Conversions<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0<em>First\/Last Click or Direct Conversions<\/em>:<br \/>\nThese ratios summarize a channel&#8217;s overall role. A value close to 0 indicates that a channel completed more sales and conversions than it assisted. A value close to 1 indicates that the channel equally assisted and completed sales and conversions. The more this value exceeds 1, the more the channel assisted sales and conversions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=wR085IKVrsk<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; How does Google Analytics credit a channel that contributes to a conversion prior to a transaction? &nbsp; Last-click attribution &nbsp; Primary conversion &nbsp; Assisted conversion &nbsp; Second-to-last-click attribution &nbsp; &nbsp; Explanation: Assist interaction is any interaction that is on the conversion path but is not the last interaction.
