    Hi!

    I'm currently trying to build a bit of a handover dashboard and want to show a count of the top problem IDs for the last 12 hours.

    Is there a way to get a metric to filter when tickets were initially marked as incidents and assigned to a problem ID?

    Thanks!

    Hi Steve,

    You can try to use this formula to extract such tickets.

    IF ([Changes - Field name] = "type"
    AND ([Changes - Previous value]=NULL OR [Changes - Previous value]="Question")
    AND [Changes - New value]!="Incident")
    THEN [Update ID]
    ENDIF

    Afterwards, modify this simple query depending on your preference.

    Is there a recipe for upvote count, downvote count, vote date, and user role, name, email for article votes? I see it for the Community posts, but not the articles.

    Hey Brianne,

    The current dataset only provides the net votes (SUM of upvotes and downvotes) and calculating them separately is not yet possible.

    Also outlined in指标一nd attributes for Zendesk Guide:

    Votes currently reflect the sum of upvotes and downvotes. For example, if you had ten upvotes (which each add one vote to the total) and five downvotes (which each subtract one from the total), this metric would return "5".


    In Q3 we will roll out the article upvotes and downvotes metrics. We're working on it as we speak, you may follow this similarfeature requestthat is already marked as Planned by our Product Managers.

    Hey,

    In theTeam Publishingmetrics, the metricArticles publishedhas the following formula:

    IF [Publishing event type - Unsorted]="Translation published" THEN [Event article ID] ENDIF

    I thought this was a mistake. The metric says that it counts the number of articles that have been published and not the translations that have been published. Yet when reviewing the metric in Explore, the formula is the same.

    Should it not be

    IF [Publishing event type - Unsorted]="Article published" THEN [Event article ID] ENDIF

    and then a second metric for Translations published?

    Or maybe I am misunderstanding this. Could someone please enlighten me on this?

    Thank you in advance!

    LauraYep, you are 100% correct, it makes no sense. It's been broken for over a year, I've had a ticket open and they know and don't consider it a priority to fix or even publicly post information that it's broken. It's honestly shocking. There's other bad formulas too and they just don't care. Chat Wait time has been broken equally long, and Chat Concurrency AVG has never worked. Zendesk has made it very clear that functional, accurate metrics are not a priority.

    Hello, again community. I could use your help.

    I am trying to create some custom reports from the Knowledge Base dataset, but to do so, I think I need a better understanding of the metric 'Articles Viewed'. This is precisely where I fall over, as there are a few items that don't appear logical to me.

    Metric: Articles viewed - formula: [Views ID] + [Views locale]

    1. the formula uses the aggregator D_COUNT. Does this mean that the formula calculates the number of values of the attribute 'Views ID' plus the number of values of the attribute 'Views locale'?
    2. Views locale means 'the ZD locale setting of the article viewer'. Our KB has 10 different locales. Will the D_Count value of 'Views locale' never be higher than 10?
    3. I pulled both attributes used in the metric separately: D_COUNT of 'Views ID' (=490) and D_COUNT of 'Views locale' (=10). Their total (=500) is a lot lower than the result of Articles Viewed (=2298).
      How is the metric adjoining both attributes calculated? It cannot be a simple summation of two D_COUNT(Attribute) Values.

    I get the feeling that there is a very basic understanding of the formulas that I am completely missing here, but as much as I try to wrap my head around it, it doesn't make sense to me.

    Could anyone out there help me with this?

    Thank you very much in advance.

    Hi Laura,

    你可以检查,如果你有任何其他属性luded in the query that you have created. I have tried the same approach and it gave me the individual values correctly. Just in case it still has the same behavior, pleasecontact our support directlyto look into it further.

    HelloDane,

    Thanks for your feedback.

    When working with the Guide dataset, I often get the feeling that there is a part I don't get, so you can imagine that I'm relieved to read that there seems to be an issue with the results rendered! I'll check this right away.

    Hi,

    I have a question regarding the metricclicks by query, I know it is the amount of clicks after the user searched, wondering if is the number is an avg of users that click after searching for a certain word, example: "bug" or can it be the same user that's searching the same word and then clicking on many places?

    Hi Zendesk,

    I've set up a report of the top 200 searches of Guide with no results, to deliver to me monthly.

    In my first delivered result, I have a lot of entries that have 0 results reported, and also entries with no number indicating how many times folks searched for it.

    I can make sense of someone searching for the same term multiple times w/ no result - that generates a number in this report.

    What does 0 results reported, OR a blank result, mean? Did folks search for this term or not?

    I'm guessing theydid, otherwise Zendesk wouldn't report it at all. But why is it shown w/ 0 or null result? Can you explain please?

    Appreciate being able to view more than the top 5 "searches with no result" through the report. Failed searches are vital to improving the content in Guide so an important feedback mechanism.

    Cheers

    E. A. Brown

    Hello guys,

    I would like to ask, if there is there a formula that would allow me to display the most viewed article each day in a given month. E.g.

    Thank you.

    Hi - in Team Publishing, I think mine is showing under Articles created (filtered by agent name) seems to actually be the author. But I created the article and set the author to be another agent. So creation and author are different. I want to be able to see how often this happens and also not have the created number under the other agent (the author) counted there.

    Please can you clarify or confirm/deny.

    Thanks

    Hi Zendesk team,

    I might be overlooking a metric here. I'd like to measure a "ticket creation rate" at a Help Center Article level. The most simple version of this would be tickets created / articles viewed.

    Thanks,

    I'm trying to figure out how I can get a report on performance for articles that use the same content tag. Looking around Explore, I can't find anything that segments based on content tags. Is this not available? Thanks!

    Hi Everyone!

    I want to create a query with these characteristics:

    Metric: Published articles

    Attributes (Rows):

    • Article category title
    • Article section title

    The goal is to have a rapresentation of how many sections are in every category and how many articles are in every section.

    I don't know why, but 519 of my 867 articles are displayed with no category. Articles of the same sections can be displayed categoryless or in the right category. All articles are in the same sections.

    But if I have Category C1 in wich I have Section S1, in wich I have Articles A1 A2 A3 A4 A5, for no reason I can have a No category including S1 with articlel A2 A4 and A5, and the category C1 including S1 with articles A1 and A3. In the same tabel.

    你知道原因吗?比你所以much!

    We're continuing to struggle getting an accurateper-user(and, extrapolating further, per team)link rate calculation, similar to this question raised a couple years ago:https://support.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/4408860637082-Need-a-link-rate-calculation

    Is there a simple way to build such a report that we are missing?

    I'm trying to get a report of the number of articles and the list of articles that need to be verified per agent. When I do this under the team publishing dataset, I get all zeros for each agent. In guide admin we show 1176 articles requiring verification. Does anyone know how to get this report?

    Articles created metrics shows different values in the Knowledge Capture data set vs the Team Publishing data set. What is the difference between the two?

    I have been trying to find the definition of different Click through Rates (CTRs) through the different channels. Web widget and Help desk seem pretty self explanatory, but the Agent Workspace CTR is giving a very low CTR to what I expected.

    Does this CTR count through the number of tickets and count the number of times the knowledge base is accessed from tickets to determine the CTR.

    OR

    Does the CTR count the number of times that we link to the knowledge base through tickets and then count the number of times that these are used.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Cheers,

    Finn

    HiOrsolya ForsterJoel Sandi

    I'm also in need of the ability to count published articles per month and see that growth over time. Not the publishing event - but the actual count of total articles available on our help center. Did you ever come up with a solution for this? So far all my attempts have resulted in a count of publishing events.

  • Joel Sandi

    Hi Gavin (sorry, your handle is not coming up after the @ here for me). We haven't been able to resolve this with any OOO reporting on Zendesk itself. Seems the best you can do is be disciplined at the end/start of each month about recording the number of published articles at that point in time, then do your own charting and math separately. You also won't be able to look at this earlier than the month you start from since a snapshot in time for this count is not available in ZD reporting.

    Hi,

    I need some help in refining our help center usage metrics. Almost all the articles in our help center include a table of contents that we create using the h4 tag, for example:

    Introduction

    .
    If a customer accesses an article with a table of contents, the URL changes as the person scrolls up and down the article.
    The problem: every time that the URL changes as a result of a scroll, the data is being captured in our stats as if the customer viewed this section explicitly. We would like to capture this data only when the customerclicks explicitlyon the section name in the table of contents and not as a result of scrolling. I think this will be much more indicative of the customer's interest and activity.
    I would love some guidance on how to implement this. Thanks so much in advance.

    I'm noticing a weird discrepancy in tracking upvotes and downvotes via the OOB Zendesk Guide Explore dashboard.

    The core question is, in the data filters list, what is the difference between selectingArticle upvotes (or downvotes)andArticle votes? Logic suggests to me thatArticle votesmeans "articles with votes for the given period" -- which should necessarily include all articles with either upvotes or downvotes, and sorting should follow accordingly. Does that not make sense?

    In the example below, I am interested inwhat articles had upvotes and how many upvotes they had, ranked by descending upvote count order. Yet, I end up with significantly different data when I filter byArticle upvotesvsArticle votes. The former displays way more articles having upvotes than the latter, with total upvote count shown in the table significantly exceeding theArticle votesfilter (136 vs 80). In the example you see just one extra article suddenly appear in the top upvoted list, but many more follow down the table.

    On the flipside, we see exactly the same inconsistency reflected when looking at downvotes.

    How is one to make heads or tails of this? Nothing in the reporting interface or documentation (that I have been able to find or interpret) provides any helpful information.
