How to track widget usage statistics

AmyRoust — Thu, 27 Apr 2017 21:49:03 GMT

I'm using WebApp Builder Developer Edition to "upgrade" our current property viewer site, using my own server to publish web services and AGOL to publish the map that the app consumes. I know that I can track overall hits on a map in AGOL, but I'm wondering if there is a way to monitor individual widget usage. In other words, I'd want a report that looked like this:

Daily summary

App access -- 100 hits

Search widget -- 99 hits

Legend widget - 10 hits

Select widget - 87 hits

Draw widget - 12 hits

Basemap widget - 42 hits

Basically, I'm wondering if anyone using Developer Edition has a good method in place for tracking widget usage?

Amy,

There is a thread that discusses this and even has a link to a custom Google Analytics widget:

Thank you! This is exactly what I was looking for yesterday but couldn't find.

Don't suppose you are aware of any other custom one that can run locally? Some Corporate environments security shut down allowing use of cloud based calls, including Google Analytics.

Nope I have never seen a locally running one.
