# How do I view weekly online activity analytics in a data table in New Analytics?

By default, the analytics page displays an [interactive analytics chart graph](https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Instructor-Guide/How-do-I-view-weekly-online-activity-analytics-in-an-interactive/ta-p/578) of all weekly online activity. However, you can choose to view analytics data as a table. Data is for viewing only and cannot directly be changed. You can view analytics in both active and concluded courses.

New Analytics allows you to view the average number of page views and participations per week in your course. The average page views is the average approximation of student activity across the course. Participation analytics are defined by specific actions a student takes in the course and can be used to identify trends in the course. Page views and participation metrics include an aggregate across all devices, including Canvas mobile apps.

Only active and completed student enrollments are included in data for New Analytics. Deleted or inactive user enrollments will not generate data.

**Notes:**

<div id="bkmrk-if-you-cannot-view-t"><div>- If you cannot view the New Analytics link in Course Navigation, you may have to make the link visible via the Navigation tab in Course Settings. If the New Analytics link is not available in the Navigation tab, your institution has disabled this feature.
- Data is refreshed in New Analytics every 24 hours. Please confirm the time the data was last updated in the course, as content may be outdated compared to recent course activity and student submissions.
- In order for New Analytics to display in Canvas, third-party cookies may need to be enabled in your browser settings.
- Weekly Online Activity displays in a Monday-Sunday format.
