Skill level: Beginner

Time required: 10 minutes

• Zendesk Explore Professional or Enterprise

Creating the reports

Since articles and translations are two separate metrics, we will create two separate reports. The first report will measure the number of articles created in each language.

1. In Explore, click the reports () icon.
2. In the Reports library, click New report.
3. On the Select a dataset page, click Guide > Guide - Team Publishing, then click Start report. The report builder opens.
4. In the Metrics panel, click Add.
5. From the list, select Articles created, then click Apply.
6. In the Rows panel, click Add.
7. From the list, select Event article language, then click Apply.
8. (Optional) Add a filter for Event - Date to narrow your results.

The translations for each article will be in different languages and can be reported on separately. Use the same instructions as above, but swap the Article created metric with Translations created.

Additionally, you can report on other Team Publishing events (like Articles published or Translations edited) by adding those metrics to your report. You can also include Article translation title as a row to see the exact articles (or translations) that were created, edited, or published.
