Completion Rates (Partial Entry Forms): This chart tracks partial entry submissions, showing the percentage of users who started and completed a form.

Submission Timeline Patterns: Analyze this heatmap to discover when your audience is most active. Each row represents a day of the week, and each column represents an hour of the day. The color intensity of each block corresponds to the volume of submissions, with darker shades signifying higher activity, as shown in the Low to High legend.

You can use the AM (12-11) or PM (12-11) toggles at the top right to focus on specific time periods.

API Logs: Use this chart to monitor the operational status of your third-party integrations. You can filter the view by status:

  • Success: Shows API calls that were completed.

  • Processing: Indicates calls that are still pending.

  • Failed: Highlights any API calls that encountered an error, allowing you to quickly identify and troubleshoot integration problems.
