User activity reporting in Microsoft Teams

Key data points in the Microsoft Teams® User Activity reporting

When you look at user activity reporting in the Microsoft 365 admin center, you’ll see a page line chart. On that page, you’ll see the following key data points:

Time period

You can view activity data over 7, 30, 90, or 180-day time periods. The chart will graph the time period indicated; however, the table below will show the past 30-days of data up to the date of the report.

Activity

Look at activity volume by activity type: chat messages between the team, private chats, calls, and meetings.

Users

See which type of activity your people use most and when.

Table details

The table allows you to customize the data you want to see by adding or removing columns. On this table, you can see1:

• Username, the email address of the user.

• Last Activity Date, the last date a user had any activity.

• Channel messages, unique team messages a user posts for the designated time period.

• Chat messages, number of private messages sent.

• Calls, number of calls during the selected time period.

• Meetings, online meetings attended.

• Other activity, including liking messages, working on files, and searching in teams. 

Notes on user data and privacy: 

• You can download reports into an Excel .csv file for further analysis.

• If your organization has privacy policies regarding employee data, you can adjust privacy settings to hide user information.

• Organizations with more than 2,000 users will need to export the data to Excel in order to sort and filter. Those with less than 2,000 users can do this in the table itself in the Microsoft 365 admin center.
