What is it?

Community usage analytics is an add-in that you can add to your community and that gives you insight into the way your community is being used. Are people accessing it, are they updating things, adding things or just reading things? And what content (files, blogs, wiki pages, etc) is getting the most attention?

Who sees it?

Community usage analytics are only visible for Community Owners. Normal community members do not see them.

  • Interact (all actions that add or update existing content like votes, comments, like's, replies to forum questions, etc.)
  • Undo (Any corrective actions like unvoting, deleting files or removing a like)

…and linked to the applications they belong to: 
The different applications are: Activities, Blogs, Bookmarks, Calendar (Events), Files, Forums, Ideationblog, ECM (CCM Libraries), Metrics, Wikis and Communities
