most actions in Westlaw. It won’t track someone clicking into a category, such as narrowing in from the home screen to Statutes and Court Rules, for example, but it will count most things people are doing. Roughly speaking, the main categories are searches,
document displays, and KeyCite. It sounds like you’re looking for document displays only. I would choose Report Format as Detail-Account. It should give you a list of transactions for a given date range and then show the main breakdowns. Something like

They’re unique, meaning a Newsroom Multi-Search Document Display has no overlap with Multi-Search Document Displays. Generally speaking the difference between the two is where the document was accessed from (Newsroom being that content, while Multi-Search
is in either the main search bar or a broader category (not news), such as “Statutes and Court Rules” or Secondary Sources.</i></span></p>

know what the difference is, and they almost never show up in my usage reports, but I have shamelessly stolen GALILEO's breakdown of the stats for my own reference. They have a public GitLab with scripts for loading usage data. Credit goes to Brad Baxter for
