Users Dashboard
The Users dashboard provides more detailed analytics about unique users from your Publish/Subscribe API.
The Premium dashboards display metrics in hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly time periods, while the Standard dashboards display hourly metrics.
Top 20 Users are based on the following:
- Number of messages
- Number of subscribed channels
Unique counts
Note that the top 20 users are unique counts and cannot be summed. You must select a single hour/date.
New and recurring users
In Insights Premium, you can also monitor new and recurring users. The new and recurring users are determined by comparing UUIDs from the current day, week, or month with those from the previous day, week, or month for each respective period.
Insights & BizOps
PubNub Insights is integrated with BizOps Workspace, letting you export user data and view it in the User Management section of BizOps Workspace.
Export data
If you have access to BizOps Workspace and have App Context enabled on your keyset, you can send user data from PubNub Insights to BizOps Workspace.
To do that, click the Export to BizOps button to create the top 20 users in User Management.
Required Admin Portal roles
To successfully export data to BizOps, you must have the Bizops Objects Operator role assigned to your account in the Admin Portal alongside the PubNub Insights role.
After exporting the users, the data is saved in App Context and displayed in User Management.
The imported users have:
- The name that is the same as the ID imported from Insights
- The
imported
value assigned to thetype
field - The
sent_messages
custom field with the fixed number of messages published at the time of the import (criteria used for importing the top 20 users).
Any PubNub Insights user data already present in App Context is skipped during the import to avoid duplicates.
View data
You can view the details of individual users from the Top 20 Users table in Insights by clicking the arrow next to the user name.
The User Management page opens up in BizOps Workspace with the details of the user you selected to check.
