The tool is available at `aem.live/tools/rum/explorer.html` and requires a domain key, which is provisioned when a site is onboarded to EDS. OpTel captures data from real user sessions — not synthetic tests — by injecting a lightweight sampling script into every EDS page. The data includes Core Web Vitals (LCP, CLS, INP), page view counts, traffic referrers, device types (mobile, desktop, tablet), browser types, geographic regions, and engagement signals. + +## How OpTel Sampling Works + +OpTel does not capture 100% of traffic. It uses a sampling rate that varies by site tier: typically 1-in-100 for high-traffic sites, with lower sampling ratios for smaller sites. This means the absolute numbers in OpTel are extrapolated — a page showing 5,000 views may have actually had 50 sampled sessions multiplied by the sampling rate. The relative proportions (e.g., "60% mobile, 40% desktop") are statistically valid, but small absolute numbers should be treated with caution. The sampling script adds negligible overhead (under 1KB, loaded in the delayed phase). + +## CWV Thresholds in OpTel + +OpTel follows Google's Core Web Vitals thresholds. For each metric, values are bucketed into three categories: +- **Good** (green): LCP < 2.5s, CLS < 0.1, INP < 200ms +- **Needs Improvement** (amber): LCP 2.5-4.0s, CLS 0.1-0.25, INP 200-500ms +- **Poor** (red): LCP > 4.0s, CLS > 0.25, INP > 500ms + +The 75th percentile (p75) is the standard reporting percentile — this means 75% of user experiences are at or below the reported value. A p75 LCP of 2.8s means 75% of users see LCP at 2.8s or faster, but 25% see it slower. + +## Troubleshooting + +| Symptom | Cause | Fix | +|---------|-------|-----| +| OpTel shows zero data for a domain | Domain key not configured or sampling not active | Verify the domain is onboarded to EDS and the OpTel script is present in the page source | +| Traffic numbers seem impossibly low | Sampling rate not accounted for | Multiply the raw count by the sampling ratio (typically 100x) to estimate actual traffic | +| CWV data is missing for Safari users | Safari does not fully support the Performance Observer API | Acknowledge the gap — CWV data is primarily from Chromium browsers; Safari metrics may be underrepresented | +| Metrics fluctuate wildly day to day | Low traffic volume produces noisy samples | Use a wider date range (7-30 days) to smooth out sampling variance | +| LCP shows "good" but pages feel slow | TTFB may be high, which is not captured separately in CWV | Check server response time independently using curl or WebPageTest | + +## Per-Metric Analysis Detail (Steps 3-5) + +For each non-green metric, pull the distribution (good/needs-improvement/poor split), the worst pages by p75, and match the pattern to a likely EDS root cause. + +### LCP — what to look for +LCP is typically the most impactful metric to fix first. +- **Distribution**: Percentage of page loads in good/needs-improvement/poor buckets. +- **Worst pages**: Top N URLs by p75 LCP (`cwvLCP`). +- **Mobile vs. desktop**: A gap of more than 1 second between mobile and desktop p75 usually indicates image or resource loading issues on slower connections. +- **Common EDS causes**: Hero images exceeding the 100KB LCP budget, too many eager-loaded blocks, custom fonts blocking render, or third-party scripts in the eager phase. +- For each worst page, note the likely cause based on its page type (article, product, landing, home). + +### CLS — what to look for +CLS problems on EDS sites have distinct, recognizable patterns. +- **Distribution**: Percentage of page loads with CLS > 0.1. +- **Worst pages**: Top N URLs by p75 CLS (`cwvCLS`). +- **Common EDS causes**: Images without `width`/`height` attributes from `createOptimizedPicture()` (tracked as aem-lib issue #201, fixed in recent versions), late-loading consent banners, font swaps without `size-adjust`, or blocks that restructure their DOM during JavaScript decoration. + +### INP — what to look for +INP measures responsiveness to user interaction. +- **Distribution**: Percentage of interactions with INP > 200ms. +- **Worst pages**: Top N URLs by p75 INP (`cwvINP`). +- **Common EDS causes**: Heavy block decoration JS (accordions, tabs, carousels), synchronous layout reads followed by DOM writes (forced reflows), third-party scripts adding event listeners globally, or large DOM size from deeply nested block structures. + +## Final Report Template (Step 8) + +Produce a structured report with these sections: + +### Site Performance Summary +- Domain, date range, total estimated page views. +- Overall CWV pass rate. +- One-sentence health assessment. + +### Core Web Vitals Scorecard +| Metric | p75 Value | Rating | Threshold | Trend | +|--------|-----------|--------|-----------|-------| +| LCP | X.Xs | Good / Needs Improvement / Poor | < 2.5s | improving / stable / degrading | +| CLS | X.XX | Good / Needs Improvement / Poor | < 0.1 | improving / stable / degrading | +| INP | Xms | Good / Needs Improvement / Poor | < 200ms | improving / stable / degrading | + +### Top Issues by Impact +Ranked list of the 3-5 most impactful findings, each with: the metric affected, specific pages or templates, root cause, recommended fix (reference `cwv-optimizer` for implementation), and estimated improvement. + +### Traffic Insights +Key findings from device, browser, geographic, and trend analysis. + +### Recommended Next Steps +1. **Quick wins** — Fixes for this week. +2. **Medium-term** — Improvements over 1-2 sprints. +3. **Monitoring** — What to watch going forward. + +### Finding categorization +- **Critical** (red/poor metrics) — Directly affects search ranking and user experience. +- **Warning** (amber/needs-improvement) — At risk of slipping into poor. +- **Healthy** (green) — Note as maintained strengths.
