1. Introduction
To provide all-time assistance to your customers you can deploy a chatbot on your website or channel. But if we can not track the usage to understand, maintain, improve user experience then eventually we may end up losing the existing users or block the entry of new users on our product. Meta Humans bot platform makes it easier for its customers to track user behavior and improve the user experience of their users.
You can simply click on the Users tab and go to the user’s page of the Meta Humans bot platform. Here you can find the listing of users of your bot. It helps you drill down to a specific user and do a one-to-one chat when needed. It also shows you all the details about the user including name, gender, and a graph displaying interactions over time.
2. Accessibility
The user’s page is accessible by clicking on the Users tab on the left panel in your portal.
3. Terms and definitions
Interactions: An action performed by the bot user in the bot flow like a button click or free format query.

4. Users
4.1 Users Panel
Profile pic: This image is retrieved from the Facebook profile of a user if he is using the bot on the messenger platform. For all other cases, the image shows the initials of the name.
Name: This name is retrieved from the user profile if the user is using the bot on Facebook messenger or is requested using a request user data node or identity node in the bot flow.

The user name of any incoming user can be retrieved from the platform or can be system generated.
Following are the steps followed to retrieve or assign a username:
-
If First name Last name is retrieved from the platform then the user name is ‘First Name’ +‘Last Name’.
-
If either First Name or Last Name is available then it is used as the user name.
-
If the user registers on a platform with a channel with a phone number then the phone number is displayed as a user name.
-
In case no information is available then the system generates a random combination of first name and last name.
Platform: This shows the source platform from where the user used your bot. It is displayed using the symbols represented in the deploy section.
