As an xAPI conformant LRS, Watershed can receive data from any xAPI conformant Activity Provider. Many Watershed reports are flexible and you can configure Watershed to display useful visualizations and metrics from almost any xAPI data set. To help you get the most out of your data, we’re working with a number of product vendors to ensure that the data they send is optimized to produce the best possible results in Watershed.
Amplifire is a learning platform that detects and corrects the misinformation and knowledge gaps. Completions, mastery and question answers are all tracked in Amplifire via xAPI to give you insight into exactly how your people are performing.

Amplifire reports
Amplifire data can be combined with data from other data sources to create so many different types of insightful reports, we couldn't list them all. Instead, this section suggests a few interesting reports using Amplifire data on its own.
Course overview
Watershed's Activity report provides an detailed overview of individual courses including detailed information about question responses. To configure, simply select the Activity report type and filter by the course you want to look at.
Leaderboard
While the Activity Report includes a leaderboard, you may also want to configure a separate leaderboard report to show a list of top performers on your dashboard, perhaps to look at learners with the most questions mastered in the last seven days.
To set this up, configure a leaderboard report filtered to show data for the last seven days and organized by person. Use a measure configured in Measure Editor as show below to count the number of unique questions mastered per person:
Question analysis
A question analysis report can be used to help identify common areas of weakness to help you to prioritize learning interventions. The report below shows the ratio of correct and incorrect responses by question.
It is configured as shown below.
