Updated over 5 months ago

Custom leaderboard creation allows to design and configure leaderboards tailored to your org's specific needs. You can define the criteria for ranking participants, and set up scoring rules of the leaderboard. This feature provides flexibility in showcasing performance metrics and fostering competition within groups or organizations.

How to set up a custom leaderboard?

First, go to admin settings from the main menu and choose Manage Leaderboard in the top right corner.

Then, click on + Create Leaderboard.

Next, fill in the leaderboard details and set the start date to schedule your launch for the custom leaderboard.

Set the frequency after which you want to reset the scores of every participant – it can be 1st of every month, 1st of every quarter or annually.

Once the leaderboard is active, frequency cannot be changed in the future as the scores are reset based on this frequency. The only option is to disable the leaderboard and create a new leaderboard.

Define events for your custom leaderboard

You may choose from events created for your default leaderboard or create new custom events based on your requirements.

To create a custom event, add the name of the event and click on Add New Event.

Next, enter the event code (it’s a custom code to help identify the event) and define the score and event activity.

For creating a leaderboard it should be configured with at least 2 active events.

Define members

Finally, define the Group that can participate in this leaderboard ranking and click on Create Leaderboard.

How to update leaderboard score with custom events?

Navigate to manage leaderboard in admin settings and select the leaderboard that you want to update.

Click on Update data for custom events.

You can now upload the file in the format given above and click on next to validate the uploaded file for records.

If a user has more than one event code associated with them, there should be a row for each event separately.

On completion, you can click on Update score.
