Adoption Export¶
The adoption export package allows you to export information about Atlan's adoption. This includes:
- the most viewed assets in Atlan
- the most changed assets in Atlan
- the most frequent searches in Atlan
Use cases¶
- Understand how users are adopting Atlan, irrespective of trust signals like certificates
- Report on or summarize that adoption, for slicing and dicing via spreadsheet
Configuration¶
Views¶
- Include most-viewed assets?: whether or not to include the most-viewed assets in the output, and if so what to consider as more important for the most views:
- By most unique users prioritizes the highest number of unique users viewing an asset (irrespective of how frequently they may have viewed it)
- By raw views prioritizes the raw number of views across all users (irrespective of how many different users may have viewed it)
- Maximum assets: the maximum number of assets to include in the most-viewed sheet (default: 100).
Changes¶
- Include asset changes?: whether or not to include the assets that have changed in the output.
- Limit to user: (optional) limit the changes being reported to changes made by one or more users.
- Limit by action: (optional) limit the changes being reported to one or more specific actions (kind of change).
- From date: (optional) exclude any changes that occurred before this date
- To date: (optional) exclude any changes that occurred after this date
- Maximum assets: the maximum number of assets to include in the most-changed sheet (default: 100).

What it does¶
The details that match the supplied input criteria will be extracted into a single Excel file (workbook), each configured area in its own separate worksheet (tab). Each row will contain a single record for a single asset, and include a link direct to that asset in Atlan.
