# Diary Performance

{% hint style="info" %}

### Diary Homepage

Your homepage gives you an at-a-glance view of Diary completion - how regularly and accurately your team is logging against the plan.

## All Diary Submissions

***

A heatmap shows how many Diary Entries have been logged across the year.

**How the heatmap works:**

* The darker the square, the more Entries have been logged that day
* Hover over any square to see its date and Entries - this appears once you've logged at least one Entry

## Contributing & Followed Diaries

See an overview of performance for the Diaries you contribute to and follow.

**For every Diary you follow or contribute to, you'll see:**

* **30-Day Completion:** the percentage of expected Entries that were actually completed over the last 30 days, with an arrow showing whether that's trending up or down compared to the previous 30 days.
* **Streak:** a ![](https://2273109354-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FLu0mYklsCTm7XQm3ZGqv%2Fuploads%2F4m1SUGLUELSw9GgFaMGU%2FTag.svg?alt=media\&token=1b434555-fc70-435c-9998-7fab91765182) icon shows your current streak of closed Entries on required routine days, plus a 7-day snapshot ( ![](https://2273109354-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FLu0mYklsCTm7XQm3ZGqv%2Fuploads%2FmUU0HmCc6saUuEg8Xani%2F%EF%81%98.svg?alt=media\&token=76470304-a2a9-4384-aa74-0ddd45ebc611) Closed, ![](https://2273109354-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FLu0mYklsCTm7XQm3ZGqv%2Fuploads%2F4BQfu2xwCkW7uudX5iNL%2F%EF%84%91-1.svg?alt=media\&token=64dd1724-b5f5-4c96-936a-5544c35130b7) Awaiting Review, ![](https://2273109354-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FLu0mYklsCTm7XQm3ZGqv%2Fuploads%2FHxzqpZAV1N84BXZkzGFn%2F%EF%84%91.svg?alt=media\&token=17201629-27bc-43a1-8ff5-17407be1b187) Missed or not required)

<summary>How Performance Metrics Work</summary>

Only days set as required in your **Diary Routine** count towards building or breaking your streak, so make sure it accurately matches what and when you need to log before you start tracking completion and streaks.

</details>

**To follow a Diary:**

* Locate the Diary you wish to follow from the <kbd>Diaries</kbd> tab
* Click into the Diary to open the Diary details
* In the top right-hand corner, click ![](https://2273109354-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FLu0mYklsCTm7XQm3ZGqv%2Fuploads%2FGDuh9a3wKEzRzSL9g8I6%2Ffollow.svg?alt=media\&token=0345fe08-972e-40cc-a6b4-fb7c547febd2)

<details>

<summary>How Followers Work</summary>

**What Followers Do**

Followers track diary activity and monitor how well the diary template is being followed according to your project's routine. When you're a follower of a diary, you'll see the diary's compliance and performance metrics on your Diary Homepage.

**Who Can Be a Follower**

Any user with Diary Access can make themselves a follower of any diary in the project. Additionally, users with Diary Access can add other project users as followers - even those who don't have Diary Access themselves.

**Important: Non-Diary Users as Followers**

Project users without Diary Access can be added as followers, but they won't be able to view diary pages or track performance until they're given Diary Access. Once they gain Diary Access, they can see their followed diaries' performance on the Diary Homepage.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.aphex.co/docs/diary/web/diary-performance.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
