On any given day, we track upwards of 250,000 click events at Dub.

These events are ingested into our data warehouse, which is then materialized in a comprehensive, real-time analytics dashboard that gives you powerful insights into your user base.

While this is great, it is still an aggregated view of your data. What if you want to see a chronological stream of click events and export them for further analysis?

Introducing the Real-time Events Stream – a detailed, real-time stream of events across your entire Dub workspace.

The real-time events stream lives in your workspace's Events tab and is now generally available to all Business plan users on Dub.

You can also access it via the View Events button in the Analytics tab:

Quick link to open-up the events stream from the Analytics tab

When you click on the View Events button, the same filters you have applied in the Analytics tab are applied to the Events tab as well.

Real-time by default, fully customizable

The events stream is real-time by default – meaning every click event that is recorded will show up in your Events tab in real-time.

You can also customize the dashboard to only show the columns you are interested in:

Selecting which columns to be displayed in the Events table

Here are the columns you can choose from:

Link: The link that was clicked/scanned
Country: The country that the event originated from
City: The city that the event originated from
Continent: The continent that the event originated from
Device: The device that was used to trigger the event
Browser: The browser that was used to trigger the event
OS: The operating system that was used to trigger the event
Referrer: The referrer information for the event
IP Address: The IP address that the event originated from (non-EU only)

Filtering and exporting events

You can also filter the events by the same filter options as the analytics dashboard.

There are two ways you can filter the events stream:

By clicking on the Filter button in the top right of the dashboard.
Clicking on the filter icon that appears when you hover over a given column value.

Once you've filtered the events to your liking, you can export them by clicking ⋮ button and selecting Download as CSV.

Exporting the filtered events stream to CSV
