From sharing updates with teams to offering advice between offices, more and more organizations are adopting Google+ to transform the way they work. In April of this year, we added
aggregated Google+ user activity to the Admin console and Reports API, allowing you to track user signups, posts and comments created, and more. Today, we’re bringing you even more usage reporting so that you can better understand Google+ adoption and engagement in your organization.
Audit Google+ user activity for your organizationTo help you get a better sense of the total usage of the product within your organization, we’ve added Google+ user activity data to the
auditing section of the Admin console, as well as to the
Reports API.
Now, G Suite admins will be able to see when the following events are performed in Google+ in their organization right in the audit logs:
- Post created
- Post edited
- Post deleted
- Comment created
- Comment edited
- Comment deleted
- +1 added to a post
- +1 added to a comment
- +1 removed from a post
- +1 removed from a comment
- Poll vote added
- Poll vote removed
Better understand how your users are engaging with Google+ and see which users are most activeGoing forward, you can also track the following metrics in the
apps usage activity report and
aggregate reports in the Admin console or via the
Reports API:
- Number of activities performed per day by each individual user
- Number of communities where at least one of the community owners is within your domain
- Number of collections within your organization
These metrics, as well as user-level metrics for all G Suite apps,
can now also be viewed for a chosen date in the past.
In the future, we’ll continue to bring even more tools to help you manage Google+ usage within your organization. We’re always working to provide admins with the visibility they need, so please let us know what you think and stay tuned for more updates.
