Scenarios Causing Discrepancies in Zendesk Votes

Vote removal or changes can cause discrepancies in Zendesk metrics, as Explore counts all vote events.

What scenarios can cause discrepancies in Zendesk vote metrics?

Discrepancies in Zendesk vote metrics can occur due to various voting scenarios, such as vote removal or changes. Explore metrics count all vote events, including when votes are cast, changed, or removed, but do not update for removed votes.

For example, if a user upvotes an article and later removes the vote, the Explore dataset will still count the initial upvote event. This can lead to differences between the Explore metrics and the current vote count on the article, as the latter will not include the removed vote.
