# Get insights into catalog adoption from Microsoft Purview
13+
14+
As described in the [insights concepts](concept-insights.md), the catalog adoption report is part of the "Health" section of the Data Estate Insights App. This report offers a one-stop shop experience for administrators to determine if and how the Microsoft Purview Data Catalog is being used. It helps answer questions like:
15+
16+
- What are my users searching for?
17+
- How many people used the data catalog last month?
18+
- What are the most used data assets?
19+
20+

37+
38+

44+

## View catalog adoption dashboard
47+
48+
The catalog adoption dashboard has several curated tiles and charts to identify:
49+
50+
- How many active users your data catalog had in the last month
51+
- How many total searches were performed in the last month
52+
- Which data catalog features are being used
53+
- Most viewed assets
54+
- Top searched keywords in your data catalog
55+
56+
:::image type="content" source="./media/catalog-adoption-insights/catalog-adoption-page-inline.png" alt-text="Screenshot of the catalog adoption dashboard page." lightbox="./media/catalog-adoption-insights/catalog-adoption-page-large.png":::
57+
58+
### Monthly active users
59+
60+
The monthly active users tile provides a count of users who have taken at least one action in the Microsoft Purview Data Catalog in the last 30 days. An action in the data catalog includes: searching for a term, browsing in the data catalog, and updating an asset in the data catalog.
61+
62+
This tile also includes an indicator of a percentage increase or decrease in users from the previous month.
63+
64+
### Total searches
65+
66+
The total searches tile provides a count of all searches performed in the Microsoft Purview Data Catalog over the last 30 days. At the bottom it also includes an indicator of a percentage increase or decrease in the number of searches from the previous month.
67+
68+
### Active users by feature category
69+
70+
The active users by feature category chart allows you to monitory user activity trends in your data catalog.
71+
72+
:::image type="content" source="./media/catalog-adoption-insights/active-users-by-feature-category.png" alt-text="Screenshot of the Active users by feature category table, showing the daily date range selected and a line graph of activity.":::
73+
74+
At the top of the chart, you can select your date range to view user activity on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis.
75+
76+
The table then shows the number of users in the date range performing one of these three categories of actions:
77+
78+
- Search and browse - the count of users who performed any search or browse action in the Microsoft Purview Data Catalog
79+
- Asset curation - the count of users who performed at least any one of these actions on an asset:
80+
- Added, removed, or updated a rating
81+
- Added or removed a tag
82+
- Added or removed a glossary term
83+
- Added or removed a classification
84+
- Edited an asset's name or description
85+
- Added or removed a certification
86+
- Added or removed a column level classification, glossary term, description, name, or data type
87+
- Added or removed manual lineage
88+
- Added or removed a contact
89+
- All - the count of users who both performed search and browse and asset curation actions within the date range
90+
91+
### Most viewed assets
92+
93+
The most viewed assets table shows the top assets in your data catalog, by sum of views in the last 30 days.
94+
95+
:::image type="content" source="./media/catalog-adoption-insights/most-viewed-assets.png" alt-text="Screenshot of the Most viewed assets table, showing the top five viewed assets, their curation status, and the number of views in the last month.":::
96+
97+
This table allows you to select through to your most viewed assets for more information, but the table also provides these other details:
98+
99+
- Curation status - There are three possible statuses: "Fully curated", "Partially curated" and "Not curated", based on certain attributes of assets being present. An asset is "Fully curated" if it has at least one classification tag, an assigned Data Owner and a description. If any of these attributes is missing, but not all, then the asset is categorized as "Partially curated" and if all of them are missing, then it's "Not curated". For more information about the curation status of your data assets, see the [data stewardship dashboard](data-stewardship.md).
100+
- Views - count of the number of views the asset received in the last 30 days.
101+
102+
### Top searched keywords
103+
104+
The top searched keywords table shows your top keywords both for searches that produced results, and searches that didn't. That way you can know what users are finding with the data catalog, and what they're still looking for.
105+
106+
:::image type="content" source="./media/catalog-adoption-insights/top-searched-keywords.png" alt-text="Screenshot of the Top searched keywords table, showing the top searched keywords with search results.":::
107+
108+
At the top of the table, you can select one of the two radio buttons to select whether to show keywords for searches with results, or searches without results.
109+
110+
You can select any of the keywords to run the search in the data catalog and see the results for yourself as well.
111+
112+
The table also provides search volume, which is the number of times that keyword was searched in the last 30 days.
