Statistics for Similarity and SimCheck

In this guide:

Filtering statistics

On your Administrator home page, select Statistics from the side menu.

Administrators have the ability to filter the statistics for their account by five metrics. You can filter the results by Licenses and Data source. Once these have been selected, you can further filter the results by Dates.

Similarity and SimCheck Statistics Filters

Licenses

Use the Licenses dropdown to select the product you would like to view statistics for. You will only be able to see products your institution has a license for.

Data source

Use the Data source dropdown to select the source of the data you would like to view statistics for. This will be the access path that your users come through to use your account. If you use our services through the web browser, select Native. Any integrations, either API or LTI, that have been created will also be available to be filtered by. Alternatively, you may select All to see both web-based and integration data.

Specifying a date range

Select the currently chosen date range to pick a new one.

Use the calendars to select a date range you would like to view statistics for.

Once you’ve selected the date range you would like to view, select the Apply button to confirm your choice. The data you are viewing will automatically update.

With your license, data source and date range set, now select the type of statistics you'd like to see on the Statistics page.
