To see Usage Trends, go to Admin Area > Analytics > Usage Trends.

Total counts

At the top of the page, Usage Trends shows total counts for:

• Users
• Projects
• Groups
• Issues
• Merge Requests
• Pipelines

These figures can be useful for understanding how much data your instance contains in total.
