WalkMe Discovery: Departments

Last Updated August 24, 2026

Brief Overview

The Departments dashboard gives you visibility into your organization's departments, including the number of users in each department and the number of apps each department uses.

How It Works

The Departments dashboard's columns and actions let you filter, sort, and export department data to dig into any slice you need.

Tabs and columns

  • Name: Department name, based on available information
  • Users: Number of users in the department, based on available information
  • Apps: Number of apps used by the department's users in the selected date range

Actions

  • Date Filter: Filter by calendar month
  • Search: Find a specific department by name
  • Export Apps Data: Export dashboard data to CSV or XLSX
  • Manage Columns: Add or remove dashboard columns
  • Sort/Filter Columns: Sort or filter columns by value
  • Apps Used: Select the number of apps used for a department to view its full app list
  • Users: Select the number of users for a department to view its full user list

Setup

Before you can rely on the Users dashboard, decide how you'll identify and enrich your user data: through IDP, a CSV upload, or both.

Decide how to identify and enrich user information based on whether you already have IDP configured:

  • If IDP is already configured in the Admin Center, Discovery automatically uses it. No setup is needed to connect IDP to Discovery
    • IDP isn't 100% reliable, so you may still see gaps in user details
    • To close those gaps and maximize user coverage, upload a CSV
  • If IDP isn't configured and you're deciding between IDP and a CSV upload, start with the CSV
    • CSV upload guarantees coverage that IDP can't promise
    • It also avoids delays waiting on your IT team to configure IDP, and avoids duplicate work if you configure IDP first and later find gaps anyway

IDP Integration

How to upload the employee details CSV

To enrich the data in the Users and Departments dashboards, upload a CSV with additional user information.

To upload a CSV:

  1. Open the Discovery app and go to Settings
  2. Select Integrations, then Manual Integrations, then Users Details
  3. Enter user information into the template CSV
    • Email is the only mandatory field
  4. Upload the completed CSV 
    • In the WalkMe Console go to Discovery > Settings > Integrations
    • Scroll to the CSV Integrations section and click View on User Details

Note

Each new upload overrides the previous CSV. To add information rather than replace it, update the existing CSV first, then re-upload it.
