# Signed Out: Track User Sign Out Events

> Track the total number of user sign out events. Monitor session completion patterns and user engagement cycles.

<Tip>
  Signed Out measures the total number of times users signed out of your application, tracked by the Upstack pixel.
</Tip>

## Formula

<Info>
  **Signed Out** = **COUNT** ( Events ) **WHERE** event\_type = signed\_out
</Info>

### Formula Components

| Metric                        | Definition                                |
| ----------------------------- | ----------------------------------------- |
| **Events**                    | All tracked events from the Upstack pixel |
| **event\_type = signed\_out** | Filters to only sign out events           |

| Metadata        |                         |
| --------------- | ----------------------- |
| **Type**        | Number                  |
| **Data Source** | [Upstack Pixel](/pixel) |
| **Aggregation** | Count                   |

## Example

Your SaaS application tracked user activity over the past month.

| Week      | Logins    | Signed Out | Sign Out Rate |
| --------- | --------- | ---------- | ------------- |
| Week 1    | 500       | 420        | 84%           |
| Week 2    | 550       | 480        | 87%           |
| Week 3    | 480       | 400        | 83%           |
| Week 4    | 520       | 450        | 87%           |
| **Total** | **2,050** | **1,750**  | **85%**       |

## How It Works

This metric counts all signed out events tracked by the Upstack pixel. A sign out event fires when a user explicitly ends their session. This helps understand session completion patterns and distinguishes between clean session endings versus abandoned sessions.

## When to Use

| Scenario               | Action                                      |
| ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| Session analysis       | Track how often users properly end sessions |
| User behavior patterns | Understand engagement lifecycle             |
| Security monitoring    | Monitor for unusual sign out patterns       |
| UX optimization        | Identify friction in sign out flows         |
