What must metrics and dimensions share in order to report accurately in Custom Reports?

Same view
Same scope
Same Custom Report
Same index

The correct answer is: Same scope

Metrics and dimensions must share the same scope to ensure accurate reporting in Custom Reports. Scope refers to the level at which the data is aggregated or associated with a specific context. In Google Analytics, metrics and dimensions are categorized into different scopes: user, session, hit, and product. For instance, if a metric is at the session level, the corresponding dimension must also be session-level to provide meaningful insights. When metrics and dimensions do not share the same scope, the data aggregation can lead to misleading interpretations and inaccurately represented insights in the reports. Ensuring that both are aligned in scope allows for accurate comparisons and a clear understanding of the data being analyzed, enabling more effective decision-making based on that data. While the options mention factors like view or custom report specifications, they don’t address the critical aspect of scope that directly influences how data is understood and interpreted within the context of Google Analytics reporting.
