# Monitoring Usage with the Manager Tab
> Understand how your search is being used — track sessions, query trends, and identify content gaps
See who's searching, how often, and what they're asking. The Manager tab helps you understand adoption, spot trends, and identify content gaps — so you can keep improving the search experience based on real usage data.
To access it, open a knowledge base and click the **Manager** tab in the top navigation.
## Setting the date range
At the top of the Manager tab, controls let you define the time period for all the data shown below.
**Date range picker**
Click the date range field to select a custom start and end date (e.g., "Jan 28, 2026 - Feb 28, 2026").
**Quick presets**
Quickly zoom in on the time period that matters:
| Preset | Time range |
| -------- | ---------------------- |
| 24 hours | Last 24 hours |
| 7 days | Last 7 days |
| 30 days | Last 30 days (default) |
| 3 months | Last 3 months |
| 1 year | Last year |
| Custom | Define your own range |
**Aggregation**
A dropdown to the right of the presets lets you choose how data is grouped on the charts (e.g., Weekly).
**Reload**
Click the **Reload** button in the top-right corner to refresh the data with the latest numbers.
## Sessions and search queries metrics
Two charts give you a clear picture of adoption and engagement:
**Sessions**
Track how many people are using your search over time. The total count appears at the top. Click the expand icon to see trends in more detail.
**Search Queries**
Understand search volume — how many questions are being asked. A single session can contain multiple queries, so this metric shows overall engagement depth. Click the expand icon to enlarge.
## Sessions table
Drill into individual sessions to see what users searched for and when — useful for identifying common questions and content gaps:
| Column | What it shows |
| --------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| ID | The unique session identifier |
| Session Name | The name or label of the session |
| Start Time | When the session began |
| Last Query Time | When the last query in the session was sent |
| Details | Link to view full session details |
* **Filter**: Narrow the sessions list by specific criteria.
* **Export All**: Download the full sessions data for analysis.
* **Pagination**: Navigate between pages using the arrow buttons. You can also change how many sessions appear per page (e.g., 10 per page).
