Where can I see how many actions I’ve tracked this month?

Administration

Avaliable from 16.2.3

Needed permissions: owner

With just a few clicks, you can see how many actions were tracked this month and last month. This way you’ll know if your current Piwik PRO plan is enough, or if it’s time to buy more actions or upgrade to a higher plan.

To find the number of actions for this month and last month, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Menu > Administration.
  2. Navigate to Account.
  3. On the left, click Subscription.
  4. In Plan, you’ll see the number of actions used this month and last month.

    Note: If you track your monthly usage with Analytics reports, remember that heartbeat pings, page-performance-metric pings and custom pings aren’t included. That’s why the total actions in Analytics reports may not match what you actually used.
