Analysis

Sessions

View visitor sessions in Umami, open individual visitor profiles, and explore and filter the custom session properties you have saved.

Available since v2.13.0

The Sessions screen displays activity grouped by a session identifier. By default, Umami generates this identifier from the website ID, visitor IP address, browser User-Agent, and a rotating salt, without cookies. A session can include multiple visits. See Visitor identification for rotation behavior and Distinct IDs for customer-supplied identifiers that link activity across sessions.

Visitor activity#

Explore your most recent visitors and discover where they come from in a high-level summarized view. Each row shows the visitor's country, browser, operating system, and the pages they viewed during their session.

Visitor profile#

Clicking on any of the avatars in the activity table brings you to a new page showing details about a particular visitor. It also shows their activity history over time.

The profile also shows the domain of the first external site that referred the visitor. Available since v3.5.0.

If the visitor has a Distinct ID, Umami automatically combines activity from all of their linked sessions (e.g. across devices) into this one profile, shown as a Linked IDs count.

View session properties#

Your custom data can be accessed under the Properties tab on the Sessions page. This section will show you all the custom data properties you saved as well as a breakdown of all the values. To save session properties see Tracker functions.

Filtering#

Use the Property Filter button to narrow down session properties by specific property names and values. This lets you focus your analysis on a particular group of sessions.

Session data filters can also be added from the Session data tab of the main filter panel, letting you filter any report page by a session property, not just the Sessions page.

Individual session property data can be viewed at the profile level.
