Understanding Searches
A search is a request that INSIA runs to get answers to your data questions. The number of searches varies based on the activity that is performed on INSIA.
Action on INSIA - Search Count mapping

If you search on the Search bar - it amounts to 1 Search every time INSIA gives an output.

Each chart in an i360 report amounts to 1.5 Searches. If you do an i360 (Automated AI generated report on performance deviation), it could range between 5 to 45 Searches as each i360 report maximum charts count is limited to 30.

Each chart in a data story amounts to 0.8 Searches.If you create a data story (Report/Dashboard) with 10 Charts, you will use 8 Searches. Moreover. Every time you open that data story, it will count as 8 Searches.

Each drill down you perform will be counted as 1 Search.
Let's try to understand this with an example
Assume you run an e-Commerce store and have online sales data from Amazon, offline sales data from the point of Sale (POS) counters in stores, and financial data from your accounting systems. Let's calculate the total Searches in a month for different analysis requirements of the e-Commerce Store assuming 22 working days.

If you perform 20 ad-hoc searches per day, then that will amount to 440 searches per month.

If you have created five datastories with ten charts each and you view all five datastories once every day. You would be consuming 1100 Searches per month.

If you run 10 Automated reports (i360) on performance deviations in a month, you would be consuming 300 Searches per month.

If you perform an average of three 3-Level drill-downs daily, you would be consuming 3*3*22 = 198 searches per month.
In total, your consumption would be around 2000 searches per month and you'd be spending around 30 minutes per day on INSIA.
