Troubleshoot Insights
If you’re experiencing issues with data in Insights, consider the following solutions to resolve common problems.
Update users to the latest version of Docker Desktop.
Data is not shown for users using versions 4.16 or lower of Docker Desktop. In addition, older versions may not provide all data. Ensure all users have installed the latest version of Docker Desktop.
Enable Send usage statistics in Docker Desktop for all your users.
If users have opted out of sending usage statistics for Docker Desktop, then their usage data will not be a part of Insights. To manage the setting at scale for all your users, you can use Settings Management and enable the
analyticsEnabledsetting.Ensure that users are using Docker Desktop and aren't using the standalone version of Docker Engine.
Only Docker Desktop can provide data for Insights. If a user installs and uses Docker Engine outside of Docker Desktop, Docker Engine won't provide data for that user.
Ensure that users are signing in to an account associated with your organization.
Users who don’t sign in to an account associated with your organization are not represented in the data. To ensure users sign in with an account associated with your organization, you can enforce sign-in.
