# Define Metrics

> Aggregate events into insights for FlagSync.

## Defining Metrics

Metrics track how features affect users—like clicks or sign-ups—by correlating [events](/quickstarts/events) and [flag impressions](/quickstarts/flag) from users. Let’s create two:

* `Sign-Up CTA Click` (sign-up clicks within the layout).
* `Sign-Up Complete` (completed sign-ups).

We’ll use these in an experiment with the `new-feature` flag (`Enabled`/`Disabled`) to test if the new layout boosts conversions.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Add a Metrics">
    In the Dashboard, click "+" next to **Metrics** or go to [Create a Metric](https://www.flagsync.com/dashboard/metrics/new/).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Name Your Metric">
    * **Name**: Enter `Sign-Up CTA Click`.
    * **Description** (optional): Add “Tracks clicks on the sign-up CTA button.”

    </Frame>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick Events">
    * Select `signup-cta-click` from the dropdown.

    </Frame>

    * This auto-populates from SDK calls like:

    ```typescript theme={null}
    client.track('signup-cta-click');
    ```

    <Tip>Events appear automatically—no need to predefine them. Track what matters in code, and it’ll show up here.</Tip>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose Measurement Type">
    Select "Conversion Rate".

    <Info>Measures click events vs. impressions (e.g., 100 clicks / 1,000 views = 10%)</Info>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose Impact">
    Select "Increase".

    </Frame>

    <Info>We want more clicks compared to the baseline (Register).</Info>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save It">
    Click "Create Metric" to save.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Repeat">
    Repeat the process for the `Sign-Up Complete` metric:

    * **Name**: Enter `Sign-Up Complete`.
    * **Description** (optional): Add “Tracks sign-up completion.”
    * **Select Event**: `signup-complete`
    * **Type**: Conversion Rate
    * **Impact**: Increase
  </Step>
</Steps>
