User activity tracking - Best Practices

Ask us anything How do I?

What are best practices for tracking specific user activity? From what I understand, google analytics doesn’t give you info about specific user, but maybe I am mistaken?
I want to track what articles and report pages specific users visit and possibly how long they spend there. Is there a plugin, or is it best to track this info myself in a separate Xano table? My fear is that the more DB updates I add to each call, it could possibly affect performance.

What do you recommend?

I would look into something like Mixpanel.

You can trigger the DB updates after all the important stuff) I’d definitely go for a table, or multiple tables, especially if you want to go very granular on your analytics.

@Broberto Oh right, thanks for reminding me. I saw that Xano has a new feature to trigger functions post main functionality.
