Mobile app analytics based on AppMetrica data
The application added to AppMetrica will be used as the data source. You can view a list of applications available to you under Applications.
If you don't have any apps available, then before performing this scenario, add an app or use the standard AppMetrica dashboard.
To visualize data:
Before you start
To get started with DataLens:
- Open the DataLens home page. If you don't have a Yandex account, create one.
- Accept the user agreement.
- Activate a DataLens instance in the cloud.
To run this scenario, you only need a free plan of DataLens, but to fully register in Yandex.Cloud, you need to create a billing account and link your payment details or bank card.
