A workflow for UX teams to understand user navigation patterns and automatically generate recommendations for improving app information architecture.

Workflow Steps

1

Google Analytics 4

Extract user journey data

Set up enhanced ecommerce tracking and user journey reports. Export path analysis data showing how users navigate between app screens, including drop-off points and common sequences.

2

Python with NetworkX

Build navigation hierarchy model

Process GA4 data to create directed graphs of user navigation patterns. Apply hierarchical clustering to identify high-level user behavior patterns (browsing, purchasing, searching) and transition probabilities.

3

Tableau

Visualize navigation patterns

Create interactive dashboards showing user flow hierarchies, bottleneck identification, and behavioral segments. Generate heatmaps of high-level actions and their success rates.

4

Slack

Auto-generate optimization recommendations

Set up automated Slack notifications that post weekly insights about navigation inefficiencies, suggested UI improvements, and A/B testing recommendations based on hierarchical analysis.
