For example, **Referer** is the data collected from external links referring visits to a page, while **Browser** shows which browsers accessed your website. Below you can find a list of the different dimensions you can use to filter Web Analytics: * **Country**: The visitor's country. * **Host**: The domain of the site's URL. * **Path**: The links within your site referring visits to a page. * **Referer**: The external links referring visits to a page. You can access `referer host` data on the dashboard. Additionally, you can access data for the `referer path` from the GraphQL API. * **Device type**: The device visitors use to access a page (for example, desktop, mobile, or tablet). * **Browser**: The web browser (for example, Chrome, Safari) visitors use to access your website. * **Operating system**: The operating system visitors use to access a page. * **Site**: The website's domain name. Used for high-level segmentation of data. For example, you can use it for a particular zone or gray-clouded website. * **Exclude Bots**: Exclude bot traffic from the dataset. With this dimension set to `Yes`, the resulting dataset will be a closer representation of real user traffic. * **Navigation type**: Which method was used to load the HTML document. Refer to [Navigation types](#navigation-types) for a breakdown. ![Web Analytics dimensions page](https://e8aee267.previews.developers.cloudflare.com/cdn-cgi/image/onerror=redirect,width=982,height=694,format=webp/_astro/dash-web_analytics-dimensions.DqK_-eil.png) ## Navigation types | Type | Cache hit? | Explanation | | ----------------------- | ---------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Navigate | ❌ | The visitor clicked a link or submitted a form but the document was either not found or stale in the browsers HTTP cache, so a network request was made to load the document. | | Navigate Cache | ✅ | The visitor clicked a link or submitted a form and the document was found and fresh within the browsers HTTP cache, so no network request was necessary for the document. | | Navigate Prefetch Cache | ✅ | The visitor clicked a link or submitted a form and the document has been prefetched into the browsers HTTP cache, so no network request was necessary for the document. | | Prerender | ✅ | The visitor clicked a link or submitted a form but the browser had already prerendered the page, so no network request was necessary for the document. | | Reload | ❌ | The visitor reloaded the page but the document was either not found or stale in the browsers HTTP cache, so a network request was made to load the document. | | Reload Cache | ✅ | The visitor reloaded the page and the document was found and fresh within the browsers HTTP cache, so no network request was necessary for the document. | | Back-forward | ❌ | The visitor used the back/forward buttons/gestures in their browser but the previously-loaded document either not found or stale in the browsers HTTP cache OR a feature was used which prevents using the cache (refer to the explanation in [Back/forward cache ↗](https://web.dev/articles/bfcache)), so a network request was made to load the document. | | Back-forward Cache | ✅ | The visitor used the back/forward buttons/gestures in their browser and the document was found and fresh within the browsers HTTP cache, so no network request was necessary for the document. | | Restore | ✅ | The browser was able to restore this page, for example when a tab has been paused due to inactivity. | | Soft Navigation | N/A | The visitor clicked a link or submitted a form but JavaScript intercepted the navigation and made a client-side update instead. Measured via [the native Soft Navigation API ↗](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/web-platform/soft-navigations). | | Routing APIs | N/A | The visitor clicked a link or submitted a form but JavaScript intercepted the navigation and made a client-side update instead. Measured via [the Navigation API ↗](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Navigation%5FAPI) or [the History API ↗](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/History%5FAPI) when the Soft Navigation API is not supported. | Was this helpful?
