The first step in a funnel is going to have a dynamic ending fragment. Examples:http://mysite.com/invite/tickle-partyhttp://mysite.com/invite/pajama-partyhttp://mysite.com/invite/puppy-partyTo allow for such dynamism, I provided this url for step one:\invite(.*)My goals work but the funnel visualization report shows 0 for everything.I know this problem is due to the regex in the funnel step because I copied this entire goal except I replaced\invite(.*)with/invite/puppy-partyWhen I hardcoded     /invite/puppy-party the funnel worked as expected.Why is my funnel report not working with my original funnel step url parameter?
Google Analytics Funnel Step Regular Expression Not Working

I found that the type of match needs to be set to Regular Expression even if you want the funnel URLs to be expressed as regex.
