Search Analytics
Access to Search Analytics requires Super Admin or Admin permissions in the SearchBlox Admin Console.
The Search Analytics dashboard gives you a complete view of how users search and interact with your content. Use it to track search trends, identify gaps where users get no results, and measure engagement with search suggestions and featured content. Data is pulled from OpenSearch and updates in real time.
Search Analytics Dashboard
The Search Analytics section in the Admin page provides a complete report of all searches performed across every collection. You can view the data in an easy-to-read dashboard and export it as CSV or Excel files, or download it directly using a URL.

Purge data
Warning: This action permanently deletes data from the database and cannot be undone. Only purge data you no longer need.
To purge data, click the purge icon in the top area of the Analytics dashboard. This is typically used to remove outdated query logs or reset analytics for a fresh reporting period.
Download Query Logs Report
The Analytics feature allows you to compare results across different time periods and download detailed query logs for:
- Today
- Yesterday
- Past Week
- Past Month
- Past 3 Months
- Past 6 Months

By using the compare button, you can choose from three comparison options to review performance trends:
- None: Shows all results without any comparison.
- Previous Period: Compares the selected date range with the same number of days from the previous period.
- Previous Year: Compares the selected date range with the same dates from the previous year.
For customized analysis, query logs can also be downloaded for any specific date range you select.
