The KPI dashboards help you understand how licenses, machines, and users interact with your software. They are intended to replace the older Analytics dashboard at analytics.cryptolens.io. Use these dashboards to review recent license activity, spot usage trends, identify heavily used licenses, and decide when to investigate a customer or product configuration.

​
Before you start

The dashboards are based on activity recorded by Devolens, such as license verification and activation requests. If a dashboard has little or no data, check that your application is calling the Devolens Web API or SDK in production and that you are viewing the correct product and time period. Data may not appear immediately after a request is made. If the numbers look unexpected, first check the selected product and time period, then confirm that test licenses are excluded. For operational investigations, compare the dashboard with the relevant license, product, or API logs before taking customer-facing action.

​
Exclude test licenses

Test, demo, and internal licenses can distort analytics. You can exclude one or more license keys from KPI processing by adding a data object.
  1. Visit https://app.cryptolens.io/Data?refType=0.
  2. Add a data object named cryptolens_excludekeys_kpi.
  3. In the StringValue field, enter the key IDs to exclude, separated by commas.
For example: 
12345,67890,13579
The key ID is not the same value as the visible license key string. To find it, open the product page, locate the license key, and click the green icon next to the license key to view stats for that key. The page URL will look similar to: 
https://app.cryptolens.io/report/LicenseActivity?keyId=12345
In this example, the key ID is 12345.
A better way to extract key IDs will be released later. Until then, use the license activity URL as the source of the key ID.

​
Access analytics through the API

You can access the data used by these dashboards through the Web API in the Usage Analytics section, or through the Python SDK. This is useful when you want to build custom reports, automate internal reviews, or let an AI-assisted workflow query usage analytics as part of license support and customer-success tasks. If you use an AI agent or MCP client such as Claude, ChatGPT, or Codex, you can also connect the Devolens MCP server, which exposes the same usage analytics together with license and customer management tools. The connection can be restricted to analytics-only permissions.

Roadmap

We are actively improving these dashboards based on customer feedback. Please email [email protected] if you notice unexpected results or need a metric that is not available yet.
  • Exclude test licenses (implemented)
  • Report average seats or machines used for a given license. In the meantime, you can review the FloatingLicenseAudit script.
  • Show units on hover
  • Other minor fixes and usability improvements.
