📋 Content Report

What the Content Report does for you

Select “Content Report” in the page heading to display many page metrics and a graph with views and edits.
Select different date ranges and see the metrics and graph adapt.
Group the metrics in the graph by days (default), weeks, months, or years.
Specify which metrics to display in the graph.
Display the metrics as a line (default), bar or area chart.
Use the breadcrumb in the header to switch between Content, Space and Global Report (depends on access permission).
In the tab "Viewers", see who viewed the page and how many times (depending on your privacy settings).
In the tab “Attachments”, see the number of attachments and attachment views.
Export the relevant metrics as a CSV file.

See how many people have viewed or interacted with a specific page or blog post and the attachments it contains.

Notes:

For the sake of readability, we are writing "page" instead of "page or blog post", but all options are the same with blog posts.
It can take up to 1 minute before recent views are displayed in the report.

How to access the Content Report

Navigate to any page or blog post you want to see statistics for.
Click on "Content Report" (above the page content).

Alternatively, select "More actions" and select "Content Report".
Access Content Report via the menu
An overlay "Content Report" appears. It is structured in three tabs: Content, Viewers and Attachments.

We will describe all metrics in the different tabs in detail.

Tab “Content” (Default)

The tab "Content" is selected by default and contains the following data:

A graph of views and edits of this page over the last 30 days. Versions are marked as red vertical lines.

Elements of the Content Table

The table below the graph contains the following useful metrics:

Views since creation: The number of this page's views since it was created.
Views in selected date range: The number of this page's views in the selected date range. The numbers of "Views since creation" and "Views in selected date range" will be the same if the page was created only recently.
Viewers: every individual user who has visited this page. Clicking on the three dots will open the tab “Viewers” (see below).
My views: The number of times you have viewed this page yourself.
Number of attachments: How many files are attached to this page.
Attachment views: How many times the attachments were viewed or downloaded. Clicking on the three dots will open the tab “Attachments” (see below).
Edits in selected date range: How many times the page was edited.
Contributors: How many Confluence users have contributed to the page content.
Page versions: The number of times a new version of this page was published.

Tab “Viewers”

Depending on your Data Privacy setting, the Content Report will also show a tab "Viewers", showing which user has viewed this content, when, and how many times.

The tab "Viewers" will show you a table of all the users who have viewed your page in the selected date range. The table is sorted by “Last viewed” and displays the last time the user has viewed this page.

Special Viewers

If you see "Protected Confluence Users" in the "Viewers" tab, the privacy setting was once set to Extended Privacy Mode.
If your page or blog post is open to the public, you may also see the number of page views by Anonymous (external visitors without a Confluence log-in).

Tab “Attachments”

This report shows you the attachments on the page you are currently investigating. The list depends on which types of attachments the Confluence administrator has chosen to track in the global attachment settings.

The column “Views” lists the number of views this attachment has generated in the selected date range.
The column “Viewers” lists the number of viewers that have viewed or downloaded the attachment. The three dots next to that number are only displayed if the data privacy allows it. A click on the three dots opens the modal dialogue for viewers.
The column “Last viewed” displays the timestamp of the last attachment view or download.

If the page contains no attachments, this info panel is displayed:

Settings:

As a default, the attachment data from the last 30 days are displayed. You can change that by clicking into the date field and selecting a different date range. All metrics will adapt automatically.
You can group the metrics in the graph by using “Group by” days (default), weeks, months, or years.
You can select the graph metrics “Views” and “Viewers” separately.

Changing the date range and graph type

As a default, the data from the last 30 days are displayed. You can change that by clicking into the date field and selecting a different date range. All metrics will adapt automatically.
You can group the metrics in the graph by using “Group by” days (default), weeks, months, or years.
You can display the numbers as a line chart (default), bar chart, or area chart.

Choosing which metrics to display in the graph

Below the graph, there is a drop-down menu listing the available metrics. By default, “Views”, “Versions” and “Edits” are selected.
Versions are marked by a red vertical line on a specific date. A page may have various versions published on the same date. Versions are displayed as a trend line.

Select the metrics you want to appear in the graph, and the graph will adapt automatically. Viewtracker saves the metric selection; whenever you access the report in the future, the selected metrics will be displayed in the graph.

Navigating to other reports

Use the breadcrumb in the header to access the Global Report or Space Report (depending on your access permission). The Global or Space Report will open as a new tab. The date range and metric grouping selected in one report will automatically be adapted to the other reports.

The entry on the right side of the breadcrumb is the page/blog post name. Tapping the name will open the page in a new tab so you can access its content.

Exporting data

You can export the data in the Content Report at any time. See Export Viewtracker Data for details.

Restricting access to the Content Report

By default, any user with a Confluence login can access the Content Report and Space Report (i.e., anonymous users never have access to Viewtracker reports).
A Confluence administrator or a space administrator can restrict access to the Content Reports. Read here for the complete documentation: Access Permission

For information on the content of a specific space, refer to the Space Report.
