Overview

This node integrates with the Matomo API to perform various operations related to user flow analytics, specifically supporting the 'Users Flow' resource and the 'Get Users Flow Pretty' operation among many others. It allows users to query detailed user flow data, formatted in a user-friendly way, by specifying various query parameters. This node is beneficial for analyzing user navigation paths on websites, understanding user behavior, and optimizing site structure and content flow. For example, it can be used to retrieve a visually formatted flow of user actions on a site to identify common paths and drop-off points.

Use Case Examples

1. Retrieve a pretty formatted user flow report for a specific website to analyze user navigation patterns.
2. Fetch user flow data filtered by device type or date to understand how different segments interact with the site.
3. Use the node to get detailed interaction actions within the user flow for targeted analysis.
