# Analysis - Event analysis

> **Event analysis** is the dashboard where you can analyze the complete process regarding events.

## Introduction

**Event analysis** is the dashboard where you can analyze the complete process regarding events.

## Context information

The context bar at the top of the **Event analysis** dashboard displays context information and KPI's.

The following table describes the elements of the context bar.

| KPI | Description |
| --- | --- |
| Avg. number of events | The average number of events that were performed on cases, within the selected period. |
| Avg. event throughput time | The average throughput time of all events, within the selected period. |
| Number of events | The number of unique events. |
| Number of cases | The number of unique cases. |

## Metrics

The **Event analysis** dashboard enables you to analyze activities and variants using different metrics.

The following table describes the metrics that you can select in the **Events** chart of the **Event analysis** dashboard.

| Metric | Description | Base |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Number of cases | The total number of cases created in the selected period. | Cases |
| Number of events | The total number of all events in the selected period. | Event log |
| Avg. number of events | The average number of events that were performed on cases, within the selected period. | Event log |
| Avg. event throughput time | The average throughput time of all events in the selected period. | Event log |

## Events

The **Event analysis** dashboard enables you to analyze process regarding events based on a different fields and metrics.

### Variant

A variant is a specific path through the process, a set of activities that were taken in a specific order. Usually, several cases have followed the same variant.

When you select **Variant**, the number of various process paths different cases have taken from end-to-end is displayed.

### Distribution

The **Distribution** chart enables you to analyze the frequency of events based on the **Throughput time**.

## Process graph

The process graph displays the end-to-end process based on the number of cases.

:::note
You can use the **Detail** slider to change the number of activities and/or edges shown. Check out[Working with Process Graphs](https://docs.uipath.com/process-mining/automation-suite/2023.10/user-guide/working-with-process-graphs#working-with-process-graphs).
