The Analytics follow a basic setup process. You will begin by Building charts which are made up of data sets, groups and data points respectively. Once these are configured Teams and Key Metrics can be added as well.

5. Now you will open the Action dropdown for the appropriate Key Metric and choose Design
6. Select one of the eight blank rectangles which will appear at the top of the screen, “Add” will appear when you hover over an available slot.
