Enhance Usage Statistics on Views #1321

Open DuncBegg opened 10 months ago

Summary

Enhance view item to have more enriched usage statistics

Request Type

Feature Request

Description

If i request views with usage=True set eg views = self.server.views.get(req_options = options,usage=True) Each view i get back in the list will have the total_views property populated with a value.

However, this is just a top line number since the creation of the view. It has limited value. It would be very helpful if the property returned contained a more enriched dataset (perhaps as json?)

In particular - if the returned property could show which users have been accessing the view and when - that would be ideal.
