Last updated 2 years ago

Was this helpful?

The Social Media Metrics dashboards provide high-level insights from the project's social media accounts and list of target search terms (keywords, hashtags, and so on). Social media metrics are organized into the dashboard types outlined below, which can be viewed by data range, such as 30 days, 90 days, 6 months, and so on. By default, the Twitter Overview page is displayed when you navigate to the project’s social media metrics dashboards.

Note: Insights currently supports Twitter data only. Future releases will include data from other social media sources, such as Facebook and LinkedIn, and we will update this page accordingly.

Following are the five Social Media Metrics dashboards for Twitter:

  • : High-level overview of the project's channel-level performance.

  • : Analysis of hashtags included in the project’s twitter posts.

  • : Analysis of the URLs included in the project’s social media posts.

  • : Breakdown of the project’s social media posts by language.

  • : Overview of social media users (contributors or influencers) who are engaged with the project’s social media posts or have mentioned their account.

No Data Source Configured appears if a project is not configured for social media metrics analysis. Click Create Jira Ticket to provide project related search terms and other details to let Insights provide high-level overview of your twitter account.

If Access is available to members of the project appears:

  • Ensure that you have signed in to the portal.
