- created · Femi Olatunji 4 Feb 2026 11:45I've built a couple of dashboards to track user activity, but the numbers don't match the raw data. Same date range, same filters, but the totals are different. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
- public_reply · Olivia Grant 4 Feb 2026 14:49Hi Femi, I can help with that. Can you share a screenshot of the dashboard query and the raw data result you're comparing? That'll help me spot if there's a calculation difference or something in how the connector is pulling the data.
- public_reply · Femi Olatunji 5 Feb 2026 10:42Sure, the dashboard shows one figure but the raw query shows a different total for the same period. I've attached the screenshots so you can see the difference.
- internal_note · Olivia Grant 5 Feb 2026 15:05Checked the raw data. Difference is duplicate user records in the index. Dashboard is deduping, raw query isn't. Need to clean up user table first.
