Hi @SNhydrone ,

It's " kb_use".

Hi @SNhydrone There are 2 ways where you can find the view count

1. Kb_knowledge table there is a field called view count which gives the total count viewed by all users

2. kb_use table . In this table you get information of user who viewed the article and it inserts a new record each time with article number and user who viewed when the article is viewed in the Portal.

 

Now based on your requirement you can do what is needed

he view count for knowledge articles is typically tracked in the Knowledge Use table, which is named kb_use in the system. This table records each instance of a knowledge article being viewed, providing detailed data that can be used to generate reports on article views.

 

Example Report Configuration

  • Table: Knowledge Use [kb_use]
  • Type: Bar Chart
  • Group By: Knowledge [kb_knowledge]
  • Aggregation: COUNT on the sys_id field (to count the number of views)
