Overview
The Analytics Dashboard provides real-time insights into your knowledge base performance, document statistics, and system health metrics.
Key Metrics
Document Statistics
- Total Documents: Number of documents indexed in your knowledge base
- Total Vectors: Number of vector embeddings created for semantic search
- Storage Used: Total storage consumption in megabytes
- Collections: Number of document collections/categories
Activity Metrics
- Documents This Week: New documents added in the current week
- Documents This Month: New documents added in the current month
- Growth Rate: Percentage change compared to historical average
System Health
- Health Percentage: Overall system status (100% = all systems operational)
- Last Update: Timestamp of the most recent statistics refresh
How to Use
Viewing Overview
Ask for an overview to see all key metrics at a glance:
- "Show overview"
- "What's the storage usage?"
- "How many documents do we have?"
Checking Activity
Monitor recent changes and growth trends:
- "Show recent activity"
- "What's the growth trend?"
- "How many documents were added this week?"
System Health
Check if all systems are running properly:
- "Show system health"
- "What's the collection status?"
- "Is everything working?"
Understanding the Data
Growth Rate Interpretation
- Positive rate (📈): Knowledge base is growing faster than average
- Negative rate (📉): Growth has slowed compared to average
- Zero rate: Stable growth matching historical patterns
Health Status
- 100%: All systems operational
- Below 100%: Some components may need attention
- Check specific warnings for details on affected systems
Scheduled Updates
Statistics are automatically refreshed by the update-stats scheduled job. By default, this runs:
- Every hour for activity metrics
- Daily for comprehensive statistics
- On-demand when requested
