Five months later (August 2020), one user from this cohort is still +active, or 33% of the original cohort of three that joined in March. + +The **Inactive users** column shows the number of users who were added during +the month, but who never had any activity in the instance. + +How do we measure the activity of users? GitLab considers a user active if: + +- The user signs in. +- The user has Git activity (whether push or pull). +- The user visits pages related to dashboards, projects, issues, or merge + requests ([introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/54947) in GitLab 11.8). +- The user uses the API. +- The user uses the GraphQL API. |
