# Navigating articles analytics
**Articles analytics** in Document360 gives you a centralised view of how readers discover, consume, and respond to your knowledge base content. Use this page to track article views, reads, engagement trends, top-performing content, categories, and reader locations — all in one place.
---
## Before you begin
You must have **Analytics** access enabled in your content role. If you cannot access this page, contact your project administrator.
---
## Access articles analytics
1. In the left navigation bar of your Knowledge base portal, navigate to **Analytics** ().
2. In the left navigation pane, click **Articles**.
The Articles analytics page opens with an overview of article data specific to the current workspace and language.
---
## Use filters to customise data
By default, the analytics page shows metrics for the **last week**. You can adjust the scope using the available filters.
### Date filter
1. Click the **Date** filter dropdown.
2. Select a predefined range such as **This month** or **Last month**, or select **Custom** to specify a date range.
:::(Internal) (Private notes)
The **Custom** date range available depends on your plan:
- **Business** — Select any custom date range of up to 3 months. The selected period is not restricted to the most recent 3 months.
- **Enterprise** — Select any custom date range of up to 1 year. The selected period is not restricted to the most recent 12 months.

### User type filter
3. Click the **All users** dropdown to filter analytics data by user type.
The available options depend on your project type:
| Project type | Available filter options |
|---|---|
| Mixed projects | All, Users, Public readers, Private readers |
| Private projects | All, Users, Readers |
| Public projects | This filter is not available |
### Knowledge base widget filter
4. If you use the **Knowledge base widget**, use the top-right dropdown to switch between **All**, **Knowledge base**, and **Widget analytics**.
5. Select the **JWT** widget option to track user interactions and engagement within private and mixed projects secured by JWT authentication.
For more information, see [Managing the Knowledge base widget](https://docs.document360.com/docs/create-widget).
:::(Info) ( NOTE)
- Article analytics data can take up to 15 minutes to reflect in the portal.
- When the [**Anonymize reader information**](https://docs.document360.com/help/docs/general-project-settings#analytics-settings) setting is enabled, reader-identifiable information is anonymised across all analytics modules. User-based drilldowns and exports will not display reader names, email addresses, or reader IDs.

## Viewing article analytics on the Overview page
If you are a **contributor**, the **Analytics** card on the **Overview** page shows metrics for the articles you have contributed to, including:
- Created articles (Draft and Published)
- Views
- Reads
- Likes
- Dislikes
If you are an **admin**, the Analytics card includes two tabs:
| Tab | What it shows |
|---|---|
| **Content overview** | Combined analytics for all contributors in the project |
| **Project overview** | High-level project metrics not affected by contributor or date filters |
To view analytics for only your own contributions, select yourself from the contributor filter.
For more information, see the [Analytics card](https://docs.document360.com/help/docs/dashboard#analytics-card) article.
