# View server statistics and license

This setting contains information about tools that Grafana Server Admins can use to learn more about their Grafana servers.

## View Grafana server settings

> Refer to [Role-based access control]({{< relref "../roles-and-permissions/access-control/" >}}) in Grafana Enterprise to understand how you can control access with RBAC permissions.

If you are a Grafana server administrator, use the Settings tab to view the settings that are applied to your Grafana server via the [Configuration]({{< relref "../../setup-grafana/configure-grafana/#config-file-locations" >}}) file and any environmental variables.

> **Note:** Only Grafana server administrators can access the **Server Admin** menu. For more information about about administrative permissions, refer to [Roles and permissions]({{< relref "../roles-and-permissions/#grafana-server-administrators" >}}).

### View server settings

1. Log in to your Grafana server with an account that has the Grafana Admin flag set.
1. Hover your cursor over the **Server Admin** (shield) icon in the side menu and then click the **Settings** tab.

The following statistics are displayed in the Stats tab:

- Total users
  **Note:** Total users = Total admins + Total editors + Total viewers
- Total admins
- Total editors
- Total viewers
- Active users (seen last 30 days)
  **Note:** Active users = Active admins + Active editors + Active viewers
- Active admins (seen last 30 days)

- Active viewers (seen last 30 days)
- Active sessions
- Total dashboards
- Total orgs
- Total playlists

### Counting users

If a user belongs to several organizations, then that user is counted once as a user in the highest organization role they are assigned, regardless of how many organizations the user belongs to.

For example, if Sofia is a Viewer in two organizations, an Editor in two organizations, and Admin in three organizations, then she would be reflected in the stats as:

- Total users 1
- Total admins 1
