Analysing searches

[Susanne Ertle]

Hi,
We are trying to improve our label rules and application and the page naming conventions. For this, amongst others, we would like to analyse the searches our collaborators type in. Does anyone know of any way to do this?
I have looked at the marketplace plugins but none seem to include this.

Hi @Susanne Ertle

I believe if you upgrade to Confluence Cloud Premium, even temporarily, you can use the analytics feature to check out this type of information.

Also, my team recently made some videos with tips on page naming and using labels. Maybe they'd be helpful to you:

Hi Matt,

Thanks, I will pass your suggestion on to management.

I've watched your very good videos this morning and added a link to them to my internal documentation for our users.

Hello Susanne,

Matt gave you a very good tip.

If you want to stay on your existing subscription model and are looking for a permanent solution, there is the Viewtracker for Confluence app, which also includes search statistics.

Kind regards

Of course, forget that Viewtracker is also on Cloud.

Great team behind this app!

I'm glad to hear they're a valuable resource for your team @Susanne Ertle

Feel free to request any topics you'd like us to cover. We're always happy to share what we've learned/are learning.

Hello, 

I do have the same interest as Susanne's for search analytics. We would like to know what people have been searching for from a particular space and the results returned for the search. I can find this functionality but it seems the search is for the whole Confluence instance and there is no functionality to export the search analytics details. Is there a way to export the details?

By the way, we are on Confluence Server.

Thanks

Giao

Hello Giao,

I can answer your question from the perspective of our Viewtracker app.

The search in Confluence, no matter from which Space it is executed, is always done globally. Unless the user uses the filter option to search only in certain Spaces.

In our Viewtracker app, there is currently no option to display only searches with specific filter settings. This will be implemented in a future version.

Kind regards

Mattia
