Microsoft Lists / SharePoint Lists usage statistics

Is there a way to get usage statistics on Lists / Lists items?

 

In the OOTB usage stats, we have site visitors count; page views but I do not see where I could get the number of users that visited at a list.

 

Thanks

    I was able to use PowerShell to extract logs information with this command:
    Search-UnifiedAuditLog -StartDate (Get-Date).AddDays(-300) -EndDate (Get-Date).AddDays(+1) -Operations ListItemViewed -ObjectIds $SiteURLs -ResultSize 5000

    But this should be available to site owners without admin access.

        Hi,
        same question on this.
        Is there a way to look into these statistics in an easier/friendlier way?
        Without having to use PowerShell, and with no possibility of having M365 Audit Logs can we obtain even basic information on the total number of views on a list?
        Thank you

      I will look there but we need user friendly usage stats. I wish it's in the planned features.

      Can we get Mark-Kashman attention here?

      Thanks
