Question

Can I include quotation marks, parentheses, or square brackets in the name of calculated metrics and attributes in Explore?

Answer

No, do not include quotation marks, parentheses, or square brackets in the name of calculated metrics or attributes in Explore. Doing so can cause errors, especially if the metric or attribute is referenced in another calculated metric, calculated attribute, or result metric calculation.
