How do I enable Confluence Usage Stats system plugin for OnDemand?

[Tim]

Hi Cian,

Since the old usage stats plugin is restricted and inflexible (Atlassian don't appear to be enabling anymore) we created an add-on that provides some great usage statistics in Confluence Cloud. It includes an overview of activity but also the details like who has viewed a particular page.

You can find more information here: Analytics for Confluence Cloud

Hope it helps!

It's a restricted function so you can't.

You could ask support to enable it for you, but it's disabled for good reasons and they may not do it.

Thanks Nic - Kind of weird to have disabled functionality visible to the user  If it can't be used, then why am I torturing myself seeing it and thinking I might be able to use

Well, it can be handy for debugging sometimes, and it's a hangover from an older version.

Atlassian have enabled it for me so all good - thanks for the response as well!

@Cian Leahy Has this plugin been working well for you and not causing the performance issues they warn about?

[Cian Leahy]

It's been fine to be honest (zero reports of problems) - but we have pretty low usage of our confluence product so I'm not sure if it's representative of others
