Learn how to provision Zuora Analytics on-demand and explore its features through the Dashboard and Explorer.

Zuora Analytics is available in all new Zuora tenants via first-use on-demand provisioning mechanism.

Whenever the first user in a given tenant clicks on a link to Analytics in that tenant, the Analytics provisioning process will start. The process performs initialization of the application and prepares your Zuora data for use in the application. Depending on the amount of data on your tenant, the provisioning process may take up to 48 hours.

To start the provisioning, click either **Dashboard** or **Explorer** under **Analytics** in the left navigation panel of Zuora UI.

A message will display on the page to let you know the process has started. You may want to click **Dashboard** or **Explorer** in a day or two to check if the provisioning has completed.
