Relates to #57576 #72331

@ryankeairns @myasonik I put together a first iteration around some of the telemetry we should probably start thinking about navigational search. It'll be important to understand adoption of search over our menu, and what type of searches are run most frequently. Let me know what you think and if it makes sense, we can sync live on this. It doesn't need to be all of this, but I'd like to have some usage collection for 7.10

Frequency of searches

Questions we want answered

• How frequently is the search navigation been used?
• How many total times has the search navigation been used?
• What's the ratio of search usage to click navigation?

Metrics to help answer these questions

• Searches performed in the last [7, 30, 90] days
• Total searches performed
• Total number searches performed / total number of clicks into applications (we have this for high level apps)

Types of searches

Questions we want answered

• Which result provider is used most?
• Which application is being searched for most?
• What saved object types are being searched for most?

Metrics to help answer these questions

• Clicked into results from [application, saved object] provider and in the last [7, 30, 90] days
• Total clicked into results from [application, saved object] provider
• Count of times [application] clicked into as search result in the last [7, 30, 90] days
• Total count of times [application] clicked into as search result
• Count of times [saved object type] clicked into as search result in the last [7, 30, 90] days
• Total count of times [saved object type] clicked into as search result

Functionality

Questions we want answered

• How frequently is the keyboard shortcut being used?
• What ratio of searches used are triggered from a keyboard shortcut?

Metrics to help answer these questions

• Amount of times the keyboard shortcut was used in the last [7, 30, 90] days
• Total amount of times the keyboard shortcut was used
• Total amount of times the keyboard shortcut was used / total number of searches performed (from above)

Which result provider is used most?

Adding @pgayvallet because I think this one can only be answered from the API service, not from the UI layer

@myasonik Here's the issue the Kibana Telemetry team has on the radar for the 7.11 timeframe. Implementing Navigational search analytics is an ideal use case for us to improve the ui_metric usage collection method for your needs.
