Export member participation data

Create a raw data file that contains every member's participation history for a selected time frame. For example, you may want to export member participation data so you can calculate utilization rates for members outside of the application.

When you create the export, you select the start and end dates. The CSV file includes activity data for all members who participated in activities between the selected dates. Member participation data records are included in the export based on the event date, which is not included as a column in the export CSV file. The report includes entries for users with all types of participation events (started, completed, etc.) occurring within the specified date range.

Note:
  1. Open the Community app and click Metrics at the top of the page.
  2. On the Metrics page, click Export Member Participation Data.
  3. Select activity data in a certain date range.
    1. In the From field, click the area to the right of the Calendar button, and select a start date.
    2. In the To field, click the area to the right of the Calendar button, and select an end date.
  4. Optional: Select Include NonMembers.
    If you select this option, the CSV export will include participation data for nonmembers.
  5. Click Export.
  6. Follow your web browser's prompts to download and open the exported CSV file.

    Each row in the export represents a participation event for a member. For Power Users who do not have Can access sensitive data enabled, sensitive data values are redacted in the CSV and replaced with SENSITIVE.

    • The export excludes data collected through survey links.
