Statistics
Available on all plans
Cloud and self-hosted deployments
Statistics on users, posts, and channels are tracked for each system and team. Enterprise Editions have access to advanced system statistics.
Note
To maximize performance for large Enterprise deployments, statistics for total posts, total hashtag posts, total file posts, posts per day, and active users with posts per day are disabled. You can re-enable them by changing the MaxUsersForStatistics value in config.json.
For advanced metrics for Enterprise deployments, see performance monitoring documentation to learn more.

Troubleshooting/FAQ
I see an error: “Not enough data for a meaningful representation”
If the statistics page is loading endlessly and you get an error message saying “Not enough data for a meaningful representation”, check whether you’re using an ad blocker. An ad blocker can prevent this page from loading data. To test this, temporarily disable your ad blocker, or view the page in a browser without an ad blocker installed.
Can Team Admins review their own team’s statistics?
Yes. In Mattermost Enterprise, you can enable Team Admins to see their team’s statistics by modifying available System Admin roles. Learn more about System Admin roles, including how to manage privileges and assign roles, in the Additional System Admin Roles documentation.
To enable Team Admins to access their team’s statistics:
Go to System Console > User Management > System Roles, then edit the Viewer System Admin role.
Under Privileges, expand the Reporting section, set Team Statistics to Read only, then set Site Statistics and Server Logs to No access.
Set all other privileges to No access to restrict all users with the Viewer role to access only the Team Statistics page in the System Console.
Under Assigned People, select Add People to assign Team Admins to the Viewer role, and enable them to access their team’s statistics.
Select Save.
Note
System Admins must manually add people to or remove people from the Viewer System Admin role to address Team Admin changes, such as promotions or demotions.
