Is there a way to monitor or audit PA Dashboard usage?

[tracydavis]

I need to know how often some dashboards are being used (if ever), is there a way to monitor usage?

I have the widget statistics but it doesn't give me a clear understanding of who is using the dashboard or how often.

Hey Adam, 

We tried applying this in a breakdown mapping using the below script: 

var match = /sysparm_dashboard=([a-z0-9]{32})/g.exec(current.url);
var test = function(match) {return match[1]};
test(match); 

We are trying to apply the above script as a breakdown mapping script, which is used on the dashboard name breakdown. We are trying to connect the Dashboard sys_ID to the sys_id located in the URL. 

When we run this script, although it returns few errors, it seems unable to find any actual dashboard sys_ID's and the breakdown tab of the scorecard is still blank. the breakdown drop-down still shows all the active dashboard names, but they all read as 0 for dashboard access. 

can you help me understand if I am using your script correctly? 

Thanks for your time!

What errors are you getting?

[Darrion Burges1]

When we run the job the main error we get is: 

Error during JavaScript evaluation: Not all references of "current" are passed in by "arguments" script

Are you selecting url as a field for the script?  That error means that there is a missing field in the fields that is being used in the script.

@Adam Stout I've setup an indicator source "Dashboard Views" on the Navigator History [sys_ui_navigator_history] table with the following conditions.
Created | on | Yesterday
URL starts with "$pa_dashboard.do?" OR
URL starts with "$dashboards.do?"

When I preview the indicator source I get 935 records (for yesterday). 

I then setup an indicator "Number of dashboard views" on this indicator source with no conditions, as aggregate "count".

Running the indicator only returns 212 records, when it should be returning 935. I verified this count via list view as well. 

I know there is a known issue where PA can't accurately pull data from tables with a table rotation setup, however I checked our instance and there is no rotation for sys_ui_navigator_history.

Any ideas?
