  title: Contentstack Analytics Accounts Users API
  description: The Contentstack Analytics API provides access to usage and performance metrics for CMS, Launch, and Automate products within a Contentstack organization. Developers can retrieve analytics data programmatically to build custom dashboards, monitor content delivery performance, and track platform usage against plan limits. The API returns structured data suitable for aggregation with external analytics and business intelligence tools. Access is restricted to organization Owners and Admins. Requests use async job-based processing where initial POST calls queue the job and a subsequent GET call retrieves the results.
