Metadata

Maze automatically records general metadata for each participant, including source, browser information, and language.

To see all metadata associated with a participant, click Session details.

The custom metadata section includes additional information, including start date and time and time to completion.

You can also record your own custom metadata for every participant by attaching parameters to your maze URL.

Responses

You can view results from each participant who took your maze from the beginning until the end of their session. This helps you understand what a particular person did, and associate mission results with question answers.

Filter your results

When reviewing your results, it can be helpful to refine the data to help you answer specific questions. 

Filters allow you to narrow down results data based on participant metadata or by block answer/outcome.
