Analyze and Visualize Workplace Analytics data

This is an R package for analyzing and visualizing data from Microsoft Workplace Analytics.

Design Principles

  • Simple: the functions ought to be simple and intuitive, to maximise adoption.
  • Practical: the functions should prioritise delivering against the most frequently used outputs and analyses.
  • Consistency: functions should share a broadly consistent set of input arguments and naming conventions. This will help minimise unexpected results and errors when using the package.
  • Parsimony: in creating the package, as much of the existing code should be re-used if possible to minimise duplication of work and to make analysis reproducible.
  • Tidy: the functions from the package are designed to be consistent with tidy principles, and work well with a {dplyr} pipe workflow.

What you can do with this package

  • Run analysis and visualisations off WpA data with prebuilt settings for HR variables, privacy threshold, etc.
  • Create pre-designed ggplot visualisations that can be further customised, or inserted straight into your analysis flow as required
  • Generate interactive HTML reports that summarise a dimension of your WpA data, such as collaboration.

🚀 Quick start guide - For users

Installing the package from GitHub

You can install wpa from GitHub with the following:

# Check if devtools is installed, if not then install it
if(!"devtools" %in% installed.packages()){
  install.packages("devtools")
}
devtools::install_git(url = "https://github.com/microsoft/wpa.git")

Examples

The package comes shipped with a Standard Query dataset (sq_data), so you can start exploring functions without having to read in any data. Most functions in {wpa} share a consistent API, and enable you to return results for both a plot or a table (data frame):

collaboration_sum(sq_data, return = "plot")

By passing 'table' to the return argument, the function will return a data frame with the relevant summary statistics.
