## Implementation
## Turning on open pixel or click tracking

When either importing or updating a user profile via [API][api_doc] or [CSV][csv_doc], two fields are available for you to modify:

- `email_open_tracking_disabled`
- `email_click_tracking_disabled`
- `email_open_tracking_disabled`: Accepts `true` or `false`. Set to `false` to add the open tracking pixel to all future emails sent to this user.
- `email_click_tracking_disabled`: Accepts `true` or `false`. Set to `false` to add click tracking to all links within a future email, sent to this user.

For easy reference, this information is reflected on the user profile in the email **Contact Settings**, located in the **Engagement** tab.

# Influenced opens

> Push notifications are a good way to catch users' attention and increase engagement. Often that is through direct opens when users click on the notification and are sent to the app. However, the behavior of users who do not click the message may still be influenced by your push campaigns. Braze provides data on influenced opens to provide a richer level of detail into the effect of your push campaigns.
> When a user selects a push notification and is sent to your app, Braze logs it as a direct open. When users don't select the notification but may still be influenced by the push notification, Braze logs it as an influenced open. This provides a richer level of detail into the effect of your push campaigns.
At their base, influenced opens measure the number of users who open the app after receiving a notification without clicking on the notification. Because there is no direct action linking the notification to the app open, an influenced open is awarded if the user opens the app less than 30 minutes after receiving the push notification or under half the average time since the user's last session.
## How it works

For example, say you send a push to users of a messaging app, and you have a group of users who don't click through the notification. If a user who normally opens the app 30 times a day opens the app 6 hours after receiving the push, the push will get little to no credit for influencing the open. However, if a user who normally uses the app once a month opens the app 6 hours after receiving the push, the open would have a much better chance of being counted as an influenced open.

However, if a user who normally uses the app once a month opens the app six hours after receiving the push, the open has a much better chance of being counted as an influenced open.

This differs from setting app opens as a conversion event for a push campaign. For conversions, all opens within the conversion window will be attributed to the campaign. Influenced opens set a time window and attribution credit based on an individual user's behavior.

## Campaign details
## Viewing a campaign's influenced opens

Influenced opens are added to the direct opens of a campaign to give a number of total opens. This can be seen on a push campaign's **Details** page. Total opens and direct opens are shown in the **Message Performance** and **Historical Performance** sections. Influenced opens are the difference between the two measures.

If you don't turn analytics tracking on for a segment, you can still access [real-time statistics][11] for that segment and target its users with campaigns. The only difference is the access to the specific analysis tools mentioned on this page.
In a segment's page **Segment Details** section, turn on **Analytics Tracking**.

An app can have tracking turned on for up to 25 segments. Braze recommends tracking segments that are important for you to analyze when understanding your campaigns' effects on sessions, revenue, and purchases.

## Revenue and purchases over time
## Viewing revenue and purchases over time

Go to **Analytics** > **Revenue Report** to view data on [revenue and purchases over time for this segment][14].

To visually compare segment data for any custom time range, add or remove segments from the graph. Select **By Segment** and search for your segments to view them in the chart. Click any legend item to toggle visibility for that metric on or off.

![Revenue data by segment][17]

To visually compare segment data for any custom time range, add or remove segments from the graph. Select **By Segment** in the **Breakdown** dropdown, and then select your segments in **Breakdown values**.

Select any segment name above the graph to turn on or off visibility for that segment's metrics.

## Using Query Builder templates

When analytics tracking is turned on, you can use Query Builder report templates to break down performance metrics for campaigns, Canvas, variants, and steps by segments.
