# Break an event or goal down (`analytics_breakdown`)

One event or goal by a prop or by where its visits came from, with conversions, conversion rate and revenue.

One event or goal by a prop (by: "prop:plan") or by where its visits came from: channel, source, referrer, campaign, medium, term, content, landing_page, page, country, device, browser or os. Each row has conversions, visitors, the conversion rate (for where visits came from) and revenue, so you see which channels, campaigns and landing pages bring signups and money, including what analytics_track and Conecto's own bookings, chats and forms counted.

Price: Free up to 1,000,000 reads a month for the whole account, then $0.50 per 10,000 reads. A call that fails costs nothing.

## Use it when

Someone asks which channels, campaigns or landing pages bring signups, bookings or money.

- For the site's whole picture for a period, use [analytics_stats](https://conecto.chat/tools/analytics/analytics_stats.md).

## Say this to your agent

> Which channels brought the fleet deals we won in the last 90 days, and how much did they spend?

## Errors

| Code | Status | When | Fix |
|---|---|---|---|
| `not_found` | 404 | No site the business counts has that domain or site_id. | Call analytics_list_sites and use a domain from it. |
| `invalid_input` | 400 | No event or goal was named, or both, the goal does not exist, or by is not one of the dimensions or prop:<name>. | Name one event or one goal, and pick by from the list. |
| `rate_limited` | 429 | The business ran more analytics reports this minute than its limit allows. | Wait a minute, then call again. |
