Online users

The widget displays the number of users currently active on your applications. It helps you spot when most users are online at the same time and understand how live activity changes throughout the day.

Metrics

The chart includes:

1. Total online users
   The total number of users who are currently online.
2. Online users over time
   A timeline showing how the number of online users has fluctuated over the past 30 minutes.

The chart uses two colors: dark blue for active users and light blue for idle users. Idle users are people who still have your site or app open but are not interacting with it

Interpretation

This chart helps you understand real-time user activity and traffic trends. Spikes or steady patterns reveal how users engage with your app or site at different moments.

What the number tells you

Here are some common insights you can get from this widget:

• Sudden spikes in online users indicate the immediate success of a marketing action, campaign launch, or event. Use this moment to monitor performance and ensure your infrastructure can handle the increased load.
• Stable levels throughout the day reflect healthy and predictable user behavior patterns, which are ideal for planning updates or releases.
• Noticeable drops in online users may point to reduced visibility, lower campaign activity, or potential performance issues. Review recent changes that could have affected user access or engagement.
• A high share of idle users can suggest that people are taking time to review or compare information, exploring options before acting, or leaving your app open for future use, common for tools or resources that require reflection or ongoing attention.
