# Widget statistics over time

`GET /v1/sites/{site_id}/widgets/{widget_id}/stats/timeline`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.getsitecontrol.com`
- URL: `https://api.getsitecontrol.com/v1/sites/{site_id}/widgets/{widget_id}/stats/timeline`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Event counts of one widget, split into buckets. Buckets are consecutive days, calendar weeks (Monday to Sunday) or calendar months; the first and the last are cut to the period. Every bucket is present, an empty one with zeros. Counts: `show` is the widget shown to a visitor (a view), `submit` a form sent, `openUrl` a button or link opening a URL, `showWidget` a button opening another widget, `addToCart`, `applyCoupon` and `copyToClipboard` the matching cart and coupon buttons. `rates` next to each `total` gives every action counter divided by `show`, rounded to 4 places (`rates.submit` is the conversion rate); a rate is null when `show` is 0, as it is undefined, not zero.

## Path parameters

- `site_id` integer, required
- `widget_id` integer, required: Widget id from List widgets

## Query parameters

- `interval` 'day' | 'week' | 'month': day, calendar week (Monday to Sunday) or calendar month.
- `from` string, date, required: First day of the period, UTC, included
- `to` string, date: Last day of the period, UTC, included; today when omitted

## Response `200`

Successful Response

- WidgetStatsTimeline
  - `period` StatsPeriod, required
    - `date_from` string, date, required: First day, UTC, included
    - `date_to` string, date, required: Last day, UTC, included
  - `matched` integer, nullable: How many live widgets the filters or ids matched; null without them. 0 means nothing matched, not that nothing happened: check the filters or ids
  - `interval` 'day' | 'week' | 'month', required: day, calendar week (Monday to Sunday) or calendar month.
  - `items` WidgetStatsBucket[], required: Every bucket of the period in order, empty ones with zeros
    - `date_from` string, date, required
    - `date_to` string, date, required
    - `total` WidgetMetrics, required: Event counts keyed by event type; every key is always present.
      - `show` integer, required
      - `submit` integer, required
      - `openUrl` integer, required
      - `showWidget` integer, required
      - `addToCart` integer, required
      - `applyCoupon` integer, required
      - `copyToClipboard` integer, required
    - `rates` WidgetRates, required: Every action counter of `total` as a share of `show`. A fraction rounded to 4 places: 0.0125 is 1.25%. The counters are events, not people, each dated on its own: a visitor may act more than once per show, and an action in the period may follow a show before it, so a rate can exceed 1.
      - `submit` number, nullable: `submit` / `show`; null when there were no shows: the rate is undefined, not zero
      - `openUrl` number, nullable: `openUrl` / `show`; null when there were no shows: the rate is undefined, not zero
      - `showWidget` number, nullable: `showWidget` / `show`; null when there were no shows: the rate is undefined, not zero
      - `addToCart` number, nullable: `addToCart` / `show`; null when there were no shows: the rate is undefined, not zero
      - `applyCoupon` number, nullable: `applyCoupon` / `show`; null when there were no shows: the rate is undefined, not zero
      - `copyToClipboard` number, nullable: `copyToClipboard` / `show`; null when there were no shows: the rate is undefined, not zero
