Challenge analytics provide comprehensive insights into how users interact with your challenges, revealing patterns that help optimize engagement, identify bottlenecks, and measure learning effectiveness across your community.
Analytics Power: Use these insights to understand which challenges resonate most with your community, where users struggle, and how to improve completion rates and overall engagement.

​
Analytics Dashboard Overview

Access challenge analytics through Admin Panel → Engagement → Challenges → [Select Challenge] → Analytics. The analytics dashboard provides four comprehensive views of your challenge performance:

Overview

High-level performance metrics and participation trends

Actions

Individual action performance and participation details

Users

User-level participation data and progress tracking

Results

Question responses, answer analysis, and learning outcomes

​

Analytics Best Practice: Review challenge analytics 24-48 hours after launch and weekly thereafter during active periods. This timing allows you to catch issues early while maintaining optimization momentum.
The most valuable insights come from combining multiple analytics views. Use overview data to identify general trends, then dive into action and user analytics to understand the underlying causes and opportunities.
Avoid over-optimizing based on small sample sizes. Wait for statistically significant data before making major changes to successful challenges.
Challenge analytics transform raw participation data into actionable insights that drive continuous improvement in user engagement, learning effectiveness, and community building success.
