# Amazon Q Apps Analytics dashboard metrics
<a name="q-apps-analytics-dashboard-metrics"></a>

The Amazon Q Apps dashboard provides a comprehensive view of key metrics to help admins understand the performance and usage of Q Apps.

If the metrics are not populated in the dashboard, it is likely due to the absence of a Q Apps service role or the role is not configured properly in the Amazon Q Business application environment. Usually a banner will be displayed on the Amazon Q Business console to prompt creating and registering the Q Apps service role.

Depending on how you set up the Amazon Q Business application environment prior to the introduction of analytics dashboard feature, the banner might not always appear. To resolve the issue, go to the **Admin controls and guardrails** page for the Amazon Q Business application environment, choose **Edit Global Control** and re-save the configuration without changes. The metrics should start populating in 10 minutes.
