Usage Data

Documents and applications

Posit Connect records visits to deployed content and lets you see:

• Which content was viewed
• When the content was viewed
• Who viewed the content

An overview of recent activity is available in the Connect dashboard. See the Content Settings panel section to learn more.

Example recipes are available in the Cookbook.

Content usage data is written to disk periodically, so very recent usage may not be reflected in the returned data. The default interval is 2 seconds, though this can be changed by your system administrator.

Note

Content that has been locked does not record new views.

Shiny applications

Connect records visits to Shiny applications and lets you see:

• Which applications were viewed
• When the applications were viewed
• Who viewed the application
• The length of each session

An overview of recent activity is available in the Posit Connect dashboard. See the Content Settings panel section to learn more.
