# Insights **(ULTIMATE)**
|
|
|
|
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/725) in GitLab 12.0.
|
|
|
|
Configure the Insights that matter for your groups. Explore data such as
|
|
triage hygiene, issues created or closed for a given period, average time for merge
|
|
requests to be merged, and much more.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## View your group's Insights
|
|
|
|
To access your group's Insights:
|
|
|
|
1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Groups** and find your group.
|
|
1. On the left sidebar, select **Analytics > Insights**.
|
|
|
|
## Configure your Insights
|
|
|
|
GitLab reads Insights from the [default configuration file](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/ee/fixtures/insights/default.yml).
|
|
If you want to customize it:
|
|
|
|
1. Create a new file [`.gitlab/insights.yml`](../../project/insights/index.md)
|
|
in a project that belongs to your group.
|
|
1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Groups** and find your group.
|
|
1. On the left sidebar, select **Settings > General**.
|
|
1. Expand **Insights**.
|
|
1. Select the project that contains your `.gitlab/insights.yml` configuration file.
|
|
1. Select **Save changes**.
|
|
|
|
## Permissions
|
|
|
|
If you have access to view a group, then you have access to view its Insights.
|
|
|
|
NOTE:
|
|
Issues or merge requests that you don't have access to (because you don't have
|
|
access to the project they belong to, or because they are confidential) are
|
|
filtered out of the Insights charts.
|
|
|
|
You may also consult the [group permissions table](../../permissions.md#group-members-permissions).
|
|
|
|
<!-- ## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
Include any troubleshooting steps that you can foresee. If you know beforehand what issues
|
|
one might have when setting this up, or when something is changed, or on upgrading, it's
|
|
important to describe those, too. Think of things that may go wrong and include them here.
|
|
This is important to minimize requests for support, and to avoid doc comments with
|
|
questions that you know someone might ask.
|
|
|
|
Each scenario can be a third-level heading, e.g. `### Getting error message X`.
|
|
If you have none to add when creating a doc, leave this section in place
|
|
but commented out to help encourage others to add to it in the future. -->
