Zendesk Explore features prebuilt dashboard that includes tabs that help you monitor your bot's performance. The Zendesk Answer Bot dashboard includes tabs that can help you identify how many users received a message from the bot, how many users actively engaged with the bot, and how many users’ conversations were transferred from the bot to an agent.
You can edit and customize the dashboard by cloning it. If you need something more complex, you can create your own reports using a wide range of metrics and attributes.
The information in Explore dashboards is updated on a schedule. The schedule depends on which Explore plan you are using. See Data refresh intervals for Explore reporting.
For information about the Article Recommendations tab, see Analyzing article recommendations.
