For datasets based on AppMetrica connections, the following groups of metrics are available:
- Installations
- Audience
- Client events
- Push campaigns
- Audience + social demographic
Connections to AppMetrica do not support public access to the objects created based on it. To share a dashboard or chart created based on this connection, use one of the following methods:
