# Actions by Recent Users

The Actions by Recent Users view shows you which signed-in users have been active on Tableau Server over the past 24 hours. This can be useful if you need to perform some maintenance activity and want to know how many and which users this will affect, and what they are doing on Tableau Server.

The view Active, Recently Active, and Idle users that are currently signed in to Tableau Server. For this view, an active user is one who took an action in the last 5 minutes, a recently active user is one who last took an action within 30 minutes, and an idle user is one who last took an action more than 30 minutes ago. The actions are displayed in the lower section of the view.

![A table with two sections. The first section contains a list of users, their associated site names and the time of their last activity. The second section displays a scatter plot of user actions over time.](/tableau/next/en-gb/server/en-gb/Img/adminview_recentuser.png)

Select a user to see only the actions that user performed recently. Hover over an action to see details of the action.
