# talkvalue path analysis

> Analytical reads for channels and events: attribution, audience overlap, and registration trends.

`talkvalue path analysis` groups the analytical reads that power the dashboard's Analytics pages: channel attribution, audience overlap across channels, and the event registration trend. Every command in the group emits a JSON document that maps one-to-one to a single dashboard card, so you can reproduce the same numbers in a script, a spreadsheet, or another report tool.

## Subcommands

| Command                                                                           | Description                                          |
| --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| [`analysis channel attribution`](/cli/commands/path/analysis/channel-attribution) | Per-event acquisition breakdown for a single channel |
| [`analysis channel audience`](/cli/commands/path/analysis/audience-overlap)       | Overlap matrix across 2–5 channels                   |
| [`analysis event trend`](/cli/commands/path/analysis/event-trends)                | Net new vs returning registrants per event           |

## Typical workflow

Compare two channels' reach, then drill into how much each channel contributed to a recent event:

```bash theme={null}
talkvalue path analysis channel audience \
  --channel-id 7 --channel-id 12 --json \
  | jq '.data.metrics'

talkvalue path analysis channel attribution 7 --event-id 18 --json \
  | jq '.data.events[0]'
```

The same numbers also appear on the dashboard. Use the CLI to snapshot them, embed them in a recurring report, or feed them into another system without scraping the dashboard. See [Recipe: Channel analysis](/cli/recipes/channel-analysis) for an end-to-end composition.
