Understanding Dashboard Metrics

Understanding Dashboard Metrics

The Metricgram dashboard shows activity for the group currently selected in your account. Metrics are calculated from the messages, reactions, and member events Metricgram can record after the bot is connected.

Date Range and Grouping

You can choose a date range and group charts by day, week, or month. The amount of available history depends on your plan. Times use the time zone configured in Settings.

Main Cards

• Total messages sent -- messages captured during the selected period.
• Total users who wrote -- members who sent at least one message in that period.
• Average messages per user -- messages divided by active users.
• Total reactions -- reactions recorded on group messages.
• New members -- joins detected during the period.
• Members who left -- leaves or removals recorded during the period.

Each card also shows the change compared with the previous period of the same length and a small trend line. The change is hidden when your plan's history does not cover that earlier period.

Available Charts

Depending on available data, the dashboard can show:

• Active users by messages, reactions, and total.
• Activity by day, week, or month, separating user/admin messages and reactions.
• Activity by weekday and hour, as a heatmap that names the busiest time slot.
• Member growth, with joins, leaves, and the net change.
• Engagement ratio, calculated as reactions per message.
• New vs. returning users, based on when each user first wrote.
• Most active topics for Telegram forum groups.
• Most active users and most used reactions.
• Gamification rankings and streaks when gamification is configured.
• Subscriber health when the group is monetized and linked subscribers exist.

Reports from the Dashboard

If your plan includes daily reports, you will see a shortcut to Reports in the dashboard quick cards.

Note: If you just connected the group, some metrics may take time to appear. The standard bot records activity as Telegram sends it after the bot receives group permissions. To add earlier activity, the owner can open Group synchronization, sign in to Telegram with a phone number and verification code, and explicitly choose Import history for the selected group. Telegram may also ask for the two-step verification password. Signing in or connecting a group does not start an import. Recovery runs in the background; large groups can take hours, Telegram sometimes asks it to pause, and messages already stored are never duplicated. A member count is not the same as the number of members who wrote during the selected period, and the reaction-per-message ratio is an activity measure, not a satisfaction score.
