Joining Docs Traffic to API Usage

Docs and gateway logs often live in separate worlds. Teams stare at popular guides while support tickets describe missing examples on quieter pages. Joining the two requires a careful identity story: authenticated portal sessions, key identifiers, and a privacy review before anything lands in a warehouse.

A workable middle path is a weekly cohort: developers who created a key in the last fourteen days, their docs paths in the first seventy-two hours, and whether they reached a successful production or sandbox call. That table alone surfaces guides that correlate with success and pages that only collect confused traffic.

Document the join rules. When keys rotate or accounts merge, stale joins quietly invent ghosts in your adoption charts.
