Understanding the User activity report
Last updated 1 day ago
Who can use this feature
- Supported on Enterprise plans
- Accessible to org admins, business admins, and team admins
Our new User activity report tracks interactions with the WRITER platform, so you can understand how active your users are, which features they use the most, and where additional support or training may be needed.
Accessing the User activity report
To access the User activity report, go to Billing & reporting > Reporting > User activity.
The User activity report tracks various user activities across the WRITER platform:
- Generated content - Triggered by AI content creation from custom and prebuilt WRITER agents deployed within the platform and extensions.
- note: This does not include events from AI Studio no-code builder, playground, or via API.
- Examples of what is included:
- Submit a message to WRITER Agent
- Analyzed file in WRITER Agent - Upload documents to work with sources.
- Generated content using any agent from the Agent Library - Used the recaps agent to generate a summary or a recap from an uploaded audio/video file, used the 10k summary agent to conduct research, etc.
- Accepted suggestions
The report also displays the number of seats in use and the number of active users at a given time.
Access roles & reporting
Your WRITER access role will determine what kind of data you can view within the User activity report.
Org admins have full access to all reporting data and can filter by any group.
Team admins have access to all reports, but they may only view data for the teams they are admins for, and the users within those teams. For example, a team admin would be able to filter by "Team" but the only teams they would see in the report would be those for which they have team admin status. For all views, team admins will only see users on the teams for which they're team admins.
Defining active users
The line chart will display a black line representing all active users. To define the criteria which constitute an active user, select edit.
Understanding the User activity report
At the top of the report, you'll be able to change the overall time frame and focus of the report:
- Date range picker: Choose between custom date ranges or preset periods of time
- Count by picker: Arrange your data by unique users or by event counts.
- Group by menu: Group your data by days, weeks, months.
- Three dot menu: Download the report as a csv or xlsx file.
Understanding the Count by picker
Count by user
How many unique users performed a specific activity within this date range? You'll see one line representing the total number of active users during that time, then other lines representing how often specific activities were performed. This can help you identify how widely your company is adopting WRITER: are a few power users taking all the action, or is there widespread engagement throughout your organization?
An active user is any user who has done anything in WRITER, this includes activity outside of content generations and counts things like logging in.
Example: In the screenshot above, there were 36 unique active users taking a variety of actions within WRITER during the week of June 15th. During that time period, 33 people generated content and 8 people accepted suggestions.
Count by event
How many total events took place during a given time period, regardless of how many unique users were involved? You'll see lines representing the total number of times an event was performed, even if it's the same users performing it over and over again. This can help you identify how deeply your company is adopting WRITER: is there sufficient activity every day, across the different areas of the product?
Example: In the screenshot above, there were 233 events performed during this time period. There's a very even distribution of activity across the different event types, indicating that there are no training gaps which need to be addressed.
Filtering your report
Once you've determined the overall date range and method of aggregation, you can filter your report further:
- By team: Org admins can select which teams to include from the entire list of teams within the organization. Team admins will only see the teams for which they have team admin access.
- By billing group: Organize by the assigned billing group. Users unassigned to a billing group will be counted as No billing group.
Viewing the User activity chart
Below the line graphs, you'll see a chart displaying the data broken out into rows and columns, with total values calculated in the bottom row. You can group the data by:
Team period: Data will be grouped by the Group by period you chose at the top of the report. If you selected Group by: Day at the top of the report, and selected Group by: Time period above the chart, the chart will be grouped by individual days.
Select an activity type column header (e.g. Generated content) to sort by ascending or descending order.
Team: Data will be grouped by teams. Team admins will only be able to see data for the teams for which they have team admin access.
Select an activity type column header (e.g. Generated content) to sort by ascending or descending order.
Billing group: Data will be grouped by billing teams. Any activity generated by users not assigned to a billing group will be listed under No billing group.
Select an activity type column header (e.g. Generated content) to sort by ascending or descending order.
Agent or Feature: Data will be grouped by the relevant feature or agent. The Type column will clarify what kind of feature it is (custom agent, prebuilt agent, etc), while the remaining columns will display how often the various tracked user activities were performed in that feature area.
Select an activity type column header (e.g. Generated content) to sort by ascending or descending order.
Surface: Where are your users taking action? Organize your user activity to see whether users are adopting relevant extensions and plugins for the tools they use in their day-to-day work.
Select an activity type column header (e.g. Generated content) to sort by ascending or descending order.
User: Who are your power users? Which users may need help? Track adoption among individual users to see which areas of the product they feel comfortable with, and identify training opportunities.
Select an activity type column header (e.g. Generated content) to sort by ascending or descending order.
Filter the User column to compare a select set of users or zero in on an individual.
Filter the Activity column to include or exclude inactive users or those who haven't yet accepted an invitation to WRITER.
Exporting your report
In the top right corner, select the ••• menu to export your report as a CSV or XLSX file.
