In-app CDN Report

Beefree App is now RGE Studio!
The email design suite you already know and love just leveled up. We’re working hard to update our help center, but you still may see some references to the old product name.

Overview

This article aims to explain how to check the CDN usage for your RGE Studio account. CDN usage refers to the delivery of images, files, and videos used in your designs. Traffic is generated when a design is sent using a third-party platform (such as Salesforce Marketing Cloud, Mailchimp, Marketo, or others). This also applies to pages and preview URLs. Whenever images are loaded, the system calculates the corresponding traffic. For more details about Hosted Images, refer to this article.

Prerequisites

Prior to accessing the in-app CDN report, ensure you have the following:

• The role of Owner for the RGE Studio account
• A paid RGE Studio plan (Professional, Business, Enterprise)

This section will discuss how to navigate the new in-app CDN report, and how to fully take advantage of these three features.

View usage at a glance

You can view your CDN usage at a glance inside the RGE Studio application.

The CDN report enables you to perform the following:

• View usage at a glance
• Click the bars inside the interactive graph
• Download CDN reports

To view your usage, take the following steps:

1. Log in to your RGE Studio account.
2. Navigate to the organization you are the Owner of.
3. Select your profile in the upper right-hand corner of the screen to open the drop-down menu.
4. Click Subscription in the drop-down menu.

You will be redirected to the Overview page. From there, you can select the Recurring & usage-based fees tab. In this tab, you see the following graph displaying your CDN usage. 

Click the bars inside the interactive graph

You can click the daily bars inside the interactive graph to view more information.

The following information is available for reference when you select a bar inside the graph:

• Date
• Daily usage
• Total usage
• Information icon

Click on one of the bars inside the graph to access a report detailing the top 10 resources used on that day. This report will provide you with additional information on the images that generated the most amount of CDN usage for that corresponding day.

The following image provides an example of how to click on the interactive graph.

Download CDN Reports

After you click on one of the bars inside of the interactive graph, Beefree will begin preparing your report. You can continue using Beefree while the report downloads. This process could take longer than 30 seconds. Once the report is ready, it will be available for reference when you return to this section.

The report has three sections:

• File name: Name of the file in the File manager.
• Used data traffic: CDN usage for the file.
• File physical path: A link to the workspace File manager where the file exists. Note that workspace information is not available at a glance. 

The following image provides an example of a top 10 resources report. 

Additional considerations

When using and downloading the CDN report, consider the following:

• The report is updated daily and the data is cached for 30 days.
• Reports could take longer than 30 seconds to download. You can continue using the RGE Studio while the report downloads.
• Once the report is available, you will see it when you return to the CDN usage section of the app. You will not receive a notification when the report is ready.
• The cadence for in-app notifications remains the same. You will receive an email notification when you reach 25%, 50%, and 100% of monthly traffic.
