Hit Count Report using script in sharepoint

Question

_{Monday, February 25, 2019 9:56 AM}

Hi,

I have a requirement to record the Monthly Hit count in the sharepoint site. My OOB feature (web analytic report) is broken and not working. So could you please suggest a custom solution? Please share the script if I can add to the Conte Editor webpart.

Gone through lot of technical blogs but didn't find relevant solution.

Thanks.

Hi,

The following example about show Monthly Hit Count of a page.

Create a custom list "HitCounter", the Title field store the current month.

Then add the code below into a script editor web part in SharePoint page(example: home page).

<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.4.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
    var listName="HitCounter";
    AddHitCount(listName).done(function(data){
        ShowMonthlyHitCount(listName);
    });
});
function ShowMonthlyHitCount(listName){ 
    $.ajax({
        url: _spPageContextInfo.siteAbsoluteUrl + "/_api/web/lists/getbytitle('"+listName+"')/items?$filter=Title eq '"+(new Date().getMonth()+1)+"'",
        type: "GET",               
        headers: {
            "Accept": "application/json;odata=verbose",
        },
        success: function (data) {
            $("#MonthlyHitCount").html("Monthly Hit Count: "+data.d.results.length);
        },
        error: function (data) {
            //alert("Error");
        }
    });
}
function AddHitCount(listName){
    var itemType = GetItemTypeForListName(listName);
    var item = {
        "__metadata": { "type": itemType },
        "Title": (new Date().getMonth()+1)+""
    };
    
    return $.ajax({
        url: _spPageContextInfo.siteAbsoluteUrl + "/_api/web/lists/getbytitle('" + listName + "')/items",
        type: "POST",
        contentType: "application/json;odata=verbose",
        data: JSON.stringify(item),
        headers: {
            "Accept": "application/json;odata=verbose",
            "X-RequestDigest": $("#__REQUESTDIGEST").val()
        }      
    });
}
function GetItemTypeForListName(name) {
    return "SP.Data." + name.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + name.split(" ").join("").slice(1) + "ListItem";
}   
</script>
<div id="MonthlyHitCount"/>

Hi,

I added the script, may be slightly different than your's . Its working fine for my login id. But when other users visit the site the item is not getting added to the list/not counting the hits. Any idea?

Hi,

Please set the user permission for this list.

In SharePoint on-premise, we can create a visual web part and using RunWithElevatedPrivileges to run code as admin user.

Best Regards,

Dennis
