  • 1.  PAW User Activity Tracking

    Posted Tue May 10, 2022 05:26 AM
    Hi there,

    So far, we have used action buttons in PAW to track user activity. For example, logging into a reporting solution always starts with a home page (welcome screen), where users press a button to be redirected to the respective PAW book they want to access. This has been welcome by users and allowed us to use action buttons to navigate to other PAW books and run a TI process at the same time (to send tracking information: e.g. username, dashboard/report name, datetime, to a TM1 cube). 
    Aside from this solution to track user activity, can you please advise on other solutions that integrate with PAW ? For instance, using Google Analytics requires a tracking ID or tracking code to be pasted into the website code. So, in the case of PAW, where would that code be inserted if at all possible to identify a specific book ? Any suggestion to enhance logging at the PAW (web) level ? 

    Thanks,
    Cristian

    The simplest method you be scraping the TM1 message and session logs. Login logging is a well documented option (for example https://www.tm1forum.com/viewtopic.php?t=9247)

    Since this will likely not capture the context of the login event you will also need to process and retain the session data from the rest API as well. Cubewise pulse does this for you, but you could build your own.
