# Analytics Overview

> A dashboard-level summary of your community's activity, growth, and health.

The Analytics Overview gives you a single-screen read on how your community is doing — member count, activity trends, growth, and a health score — all updated based on the period you select.

  Analytics data requires the [Discord Bot](https://www.apetopia.co/dashboard/discord) to be running in your server. Once connected, data starts accumulating automatically — no configuration needed.

## What's on this page

### Stat cards

| Card               | What it shows                                                                       |
| ------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Total Members**  | Current server member count, with net growth trend for the period                   |
| **Active Members** | Distinct members who sent at least one message, and what % of total that represents |
| **Messages**       | Total messages sent in the selected period                                          |
| **Net Growth**     | Members joined minus members who left, with the raw joined/left counts              |

### Charts

**Member Growth** — line chart of your server's member count over time, sourced from periodic snapshots. Shows the actual range of change (not from zero) so small trends are visible.

**Community Health** — a score from 0–100 broken down into four components: Retention, Engagement, Activity, and overall Health. Color-coded: green (70+), amber (40–69), red (below 40).

**Daily Activity** — bar chart of messages per day across the period. Shows an empty state if no message data has been recorded yet.

## Period selector

Use the **7d / 30d / 90d** buttons in the top right to change the time window. Periods with insufficient data are automatically disabled — for example, 90d is grayed out if less than 30 days of data exist.

<Tip>
  Check Analytics at least once a week. Trends are much easier to catch early — a small engagement dip is easy to fix; a month-long slide is much harder to reverse.
