Learn how to use your experiment's metrics in a funnel analysis
Analyze your experiment results based on a subset of users
This article reviews advanced use cases that you may face while analyzing your experiment's results.
Imagine a conversion funnel with five steps, where step three represents the exposure event for your experiment. To reduce noise and increase the likelihood of reaching statistical significance, Amplitude Experiment only counts metric events after the exposure event. If the exposure event is step three of the funnel, and you include the whole funnel as a metric, the number of conversions for the funnel is zero. The best way to measure the actual conversion rate of your funnel is to make steps three through five a standalone metric in your experiment.
Sometimes, you may need further analysis of your experiment's conversion rates in a funnel analysis.
Follow these steps to use your experiment's metrics in a Funnel Analysis chart:
The results of your Funnel Analysis chart may vary slightly from those of your experiment. This is because funnel analyses and experiments don't handle users who variant jump the same way.
For example, a funnel analysis includes all users who meet its filter requirements. Then, based on those filtered users, it computes the conversion rate of the funnel. This means the funnel analysis may include a user even if they're exposed to your experiment's exposure event after they completed the funnel.
Amplitude Analytics offers metrics that Amplitude Experiment doesn't. Alternately, use the steps in the previous section to analyze time to convert or return on or after retention.

Sometimes, you want to define a success as a user doing an event multiple times. For example, your users must make a purchase three (3) consecutive times to count as a conversion. You can achieve this by creating a funnel counting by uniques with three (3) purchase events.
