DomoStats Overview

Intro

DomoStats is Domo’s built-in observability layer for a Domo instance. It exposes administrative data — user activity, card and dashboard usage, DataSet and DataFlow health, projects and tasks, group membership, and more — through a dedicated connector and a set of pre-built dashboards. Use DomoStats to monitor adoption, troubleshoot pipelines, audit access, and report on usage to internal stakeholders.

DomoStats has two halves:

• The DomoStats connector — A Domo-native connector that pulls 90+ administrative reports (Activity Log, Cards, DataFlows History, Group Members, and many more) into DataSets you can use anywhere in Domo.
• The DomoStats QuickStart apps — Four pre-built Appstore apps (Activity Log, DataSets and DataFlows, People, and Projects and Tasks) that wire DomoStats DataSets to ready-made dashboards. Install one and you get instant visibility without building cards yourself.

Required Grants

You must have the Admin default security role to:

• Create DomoStats DataSets through the connector.
• Install any of the four DomoStats QuickStart apps from the Appstore.

After the DataSets are created or an app is installed, the resulting DataSets, cards, and dashboards can be shared with anyone in your organization — viewers do not need the Admin role to see content that has been shared with them.

What You Can Track With DomoStats

DomoStats covers a wide range of administrative and usage data. Common questions it answers:

• Adoption — Who is logging in? How often? Which dashboards are people viewing or favoriting? Which cards have stalled?
• Content health — Which DataSets failed to refresh? Which DataFlows are slow or erroring? Which cards are tied to deleted or duplicated DataSets?
• Governance — Who has which grants? Which groups own which content? Which Beast Modes are being reused across cards?
• Project execution — Which Domo Projects are at risk? Which tasks are overdue? Who owns the most open work?
• AI usage — Which AI models and AI Chat sessions are running in your instance, and what are they consuming?

For the full list of available reports (90+ DataSet types), see the Details Pane section of the DomoStats Connector article.

Get Started

The fastest path to value from DomoStats is to install one of the four QuickStart apps. Each one downloads a pre-built dashboard plus the DomoStats DataSets that power it — no card-building required.

1. In the Appstore, open one of the QuickStart apps below.
2. Select Connect Data and assign the DomoStats DataSets to the dashboard.
3. The pre-built page appears in your instance and refreshes automatically as the underlying DataSets update.

To build your own cards on DomoStats data instead, add the DomoStats connector directly in the Data Center and pick the report you want — see the DomoStats Connector article for the field-by-field reference.

DomoStats Connector

The connector is the foundation. Every QuickStart app, every custom DomoStats card, and every alert you build on Domo activity ultimately reads from a DataSet created by the DomoStats connector. The connector exposes 90+ report types covering activity, content, people, projects, AI usage, governance, and more.

• DomoStats Connector — Field reference for every report the connector exposes.

DomoStats QuickStart Apps

Each QuickStart app is a one-click bundle of pre-built dashboards plus the DomoStats DataSets they need. Install the one that matches what you want to monitor.

• DomoStats - Activity Log App — Track logins, card favorites, DataSet creation, and other usage metrics for your Domo instance.
• DomoStats - DataSets and DataFlows — Monitor refresh success rates, failures, and orphaned, duplicated, or unused DataSets and DataFlows.
• DomoStats - People — Monitor user adoption, login trends, and activity levels across your Domo instance.
• DomoStats - Projects and Tasks — Monitor open projects, overdue tasks, at-risk projects, and assignment load.

FAQ

Do I need to share the Admin role with viewers of DomoStats content?

No. The Admin role is required only to create DomoStats DataSets and install the QuickStart apps. Once content exists, it can be shared with any user or group following standard Domo sharing rules.

How often do DomoStats DataSets refresh?

Each report has its own refresh cadence, configured when you add the DataSet through the connector. Most reports are designed to be run daily. The Activity Log report in particular has a 30-day rolling window — run it at least once every 30 days to avoid gaps in the historical record.

Can I extend the QuickStart dashboards?

Yes. The QuickStart apps install standard Domo dashboards backed by standard DomoStats DataSets. You can add cards, modify existing ones, layer in alerts and Workflows, or join DomoStats data with other DataSets the same way you would for any Domo content.

Where do I report a DomoStats data quality issue?

Contact your Domo account team. DomoStats reports are maintained by Domo and are not editable on the customer side; if a report’s schema or behavior looks wrong, your account team can route it to the right product owner.
