Account Usage
The Account Usage section provides visibility into how many inbound and outbound events Lytics has received for your account. If your account has an inbound event quota, you will find a meter displaying how much of your inbound event quota you have used for each quota period.
In the Lytics UI, navigate to your account name at the top right, select Manage Account from the menu, and then select the Usage tab under Account Information.
This view offers a quick way to gauge the amount of data Lytics has received from your various data connections. If you are looking to confirm data has been received from a particular source, check the Data Streams tab, which shows silos of raw data received.
Inbound Events
An inbound event is a record of activity that is collected or uploaded to Lytics from a customer data source, such as a record of user web activity, email opening, or an update to a subscriber record. The inbound events graph shows your total inbound events, which can be displayed at daily, weekly, or monthly intervals.
The inbound quota meter displays the number of events recorded in the quota period, your quota limit, and meter to quickly gauge your usage versus your quota limit. For monthly term accounts, quota periods begin on the first of each month and end on the last day of the month. For annual term accounts, quota periods begin on the start of your Lytics subscription. Quotas (unless otherwise stated in your contract) only count for production accounts.
Outbound Events
An outbound event is any record of data exported out of Lytics, whether manually or automatically. The outbound events graph shows your total outbound events, which can be displayed at daily, weekly, or monthly intervals.
