Hi there!

Hi guys, we are excited to announce yet another feature released in QuickBlox which is visual stats.
Prior to this date QuickBlox fancied simple numerical stats which you could also export in CSV format and then build charts and diagrams in Excel. This obviously is not ideal when you want to quickly glance at how your application is doing (how many users, push notifications, check-ins etc) so we are happy to unveil new statistic interface which is nice and appealing.
Stats allows you to view general historical statistics of usage by your apps including:
- API calls
- Traffic in Mb
- Users
- Places (POIs via Location)
- Locations (that is check-ins)
- Notifications (push notifications)
We’ll be adding more metrics such as Chat messages etc soon. Please let us know if you have any specific metrics you want to see there.

Custom Objects is a QuickBlox module which allows developers to create their own data structure (classes and objects) and automatically get an API to store and manage the data using the structure they have created.
In three words, it’s a key – value store.
How to use Custom Objects
Simply log in to your QuickBlox admin panel as usual, create an app or hit Custom Objects icon next to an existing app:
When inside you can create Classes and Objects. Create as many as you like. So imagine you’re building a chat / dating app and need some data structure where your users can store notes about other users. You may create a new class and add fields of integer, string, boolean and float types:
Bang – you have created a new database table! It is now available through admin panel and as soon as your app adds data, you’ll be able to view, sort and edit. Your class is now available through API for your app to use. Simple as that.
