Next conceptWorkspace analytics dashboard tabs and metric definitions

Explainer

The Slack analytics dashboard shows how people in a workspace or Enterprise org use Slack, but its detailed views are limited to owners and admins by default. The Analytics Admin system role lets an Enterprise org give specific members access to the analytics dashboard. A client can then share analytics with the people who need them without opening analytics to everyone and without making those people owners or admins.
Core information
  • System roles let admins hand off one administrative task to a member, and a full member can hold a system role. Analytics Admin is the system role for viewing the analytics dashboard, in the same way that Audit Logs Admin is the system role for accessing audit logs.
More details and nuances
  • Org Owners do not have access to system roles by default; only the Org Primary Owner does. An Org Owner who wants to hand off analytics access must therefore go through the Org Primary Owner or an org-level Roles Admin.
