User engagement

As explained in Automating API Delivery

An engagement metric measures the extent to which potential API consumers interact with API documentation and developer portal tools.

User engagement measures how potential API consumers interact with API documentation and developer-portal tools. It belongs to API product metrics, which function as action metrics and leading indicators for management’s focus metrics. section 11.1.3

Interpret engagement within the API consumer model:

Treat developers as the primary API users, even when their applications serve many end users. section 11.1.3
Use developer-portal analytics to obtain continuous feedback about the user experience. section 11.1.3
Attribute API calls from an integrated application and its API key to the developer user for product-metric analysis. section 11.1.3
