How do you create a closed funnel?

Question

how is it possible to create closed funnel? Ie I would like to see how many users made some action and then uninstalled app. ie. event_lost_game -> uninstall. Currently funnels are open so it doesn't tell you how many user's made step 1 and then step 2. It only shows how many users made both steps separately.

I found it in FAQ but it's not clear what you need to do.

It looks like one need to create open funnel and audience based on all events in funnel and then filter funnel based on it. Anyone who has experience with it? Thanks!

Answer 1

If this is still an issue you can create closed funnels by having your firebase-analytics synced into BigQuery. In BigQuery you can do a closed funnel, I do this quite often because I need to get the users you did go through the full funnel to target them or other how to understand who they are.

Answer 2

One option that might be helpful is to set a user property for "level=x" and then log events for play_level, level_win and buy_in_app_product. Then, create a funnel that includes these three events and filter that report by User Property level=x.
