View Dash Team Activity in Admin Console

Introduction

As an admin, you may need to create or export a report of team membership data or user activity for users on your team. This guide outlines the steps necessary to retrieve the relevant user data within the admin console.

Step 1: Access the Members Tab

Begin by navigating to the Members tab within the admin console. This section provides an overview of all users within your organization.

Step 2: Locate the User in Question

Within the Members tab, search for the specific user by their name or email address. This will allow you to quickly find the user for whom the data subject request has been made.

Step 3: View the User’s Profile

Click on the user’s name to open their profile. Generally, team member's actions appear in activity logs in a few hours. At most, actions appear within twenty-four hours. Here, you will have access to the following information:

  • First Name, Last Name, Email: The user’s basic contact information.
  • Role: The user’s role within the organization (e.g., member, team admin, user management admin, or support admin).
  • Status: The current status of the user’s account (e.g., active, invited, deleted, or suspended).
  • Usage: Activity data, updated every 8 hours at a minimum, reflecting the user’s engagement with the system.
  • Join Date: The date the user joined the organization.
  • Invited Date: The date the user was invited to join the organization.
  • Organization Managed Groups: A list of groups managed by the organization to which the user belongs.
  • User Managed Groups: A list of groups that the user manages.

This information should provide a comprehensive overview of the user's account and activity.

Step 4: Access Information About User Activity & Stacks

For details regarding a user’s activity and stacks, please follow these steps:

  • Within the Admin Console, click Activity in the left navigation bar
  • Use the filters to select the type of activity events and/or Stacks and time period to retrieve the data you’d like to export
  • Click Create report to the right of your filters
  • Select the type of report you want to generate
  • Click Generate

Admins have the following events (including Stack events) available in their team activity reports:

  • The names of all stacks created by the user.
  • The creation dates for each stack.
  • Links to the items contained within each stack.
  • Opened, created, or deleted a stack.
  • Share status of stacks and links.
  • Status of a stack (archived, unarchived, deleted).
  • Connected to or disconnected from a user connector.
  • Opened the web Start Page for first time.
  • Opened desktop app for the first time.
