Compare two data sets

You can compare information by applying different metric filters to two data sets. For example, you might want to compare two different date ranges or advertisers.

1. In the Metric Filters panel, select next to the first data set tab. A second data set tab appears with the same Configuration panel values and dimension filter values as the first data set. Initially, it also has the same metric filter values.
2. (Optional) Rename the data set tabs to reflect the associated values by double-clicking the active tab name and typing a new name.Changes to data set tabs are reflected in the chart legend and the grid column names.
3. Select a data set by selecting its tab and then change its filters as needed, selecting different metric filters for each of the data sets that you want to compare.

In the chart view, information for the two data sets appears in side-by-side bars. In the graph view, information for the two data sets appears in separate adjacent columns.
