I would like to be able to compare the popularity of different categories in our community over a longer period of time. In practice, I’d like to get an Excel report showing, for each discussion area, the number of comments and views per month. Is this possible?
Question
Report on the popularity of categories
Hey
Yes! You can now access and download this data through the new dashboards 🎉
Here’s some more info below, hope this helps!
If you cannot join the beta or the beta doesnt work for you, youd go insided.com/analyticsV2/dashboard/content to get this information.
“Published in” is where youd go to check those views of content.
Thanks for your help

Is this in anyway possible?
+2It is possible but you have to export data and build the dashboards you are looking for.

By exporting a report on each month at a time?

Yes. You need to export the Post report to get the number of posts, and when you export the Topic report, you can get the number of views per topic. You can get the category names from both reports.
Basically, you get “raw data”, which you then use with pivot tables or other tools to build your dashboards. Once you have created the dashboard, it’s easy to just add new data on a monthly basis.
Sadly there is no out of the box report.
