About Insights Reports

Last Updated September 16, 2024

Brief Overview

The Insights Reports page is a central hub, now located in the console, where you can conveniently review, export, and subscribe to Insights reports. Whether you're monitoring multi-system usage at the MSA level or tracking single system usage, our centralized reports provide the comprehensive insights you need to optimize your user experience.

Gain an in-depth understanding of reports across different environments (such as: production, test, custom, etc.) and the option to subscribe to specific reports via email at intervals. Additionally, users can customize designs based on various roles and timeframes.

Use Cases

  • Analyze your Insights in a more raw data format or using external tools
  • Share Insights reports with more people, including those who are not Insights users
  • Schedule and receive periodic updates about the progress of your KPIs without needing to actively search and filter in Insights

Get to Know & Use

Reports is composed of two sub-tabs:

  • Reports Gallery: Discover pre-built reports or create your own to export, edit, or subscribe to

  • Exports & Subscriptions: View and download generated reports and manage subscriptions

General Tabs
