Tracking Downloads

LUCY is able to track the download of any file (EXE, PDF; XLS etc.) uploaded to the server.

Where is the tracking data visible?

  • Report: Within the report you can generate the tracking stats using the %charts.files% and %victim.table% variables.
  • Export: Within the raw CSV export you have the tracking included
  • Dashboard: downloads are visible at different parts of the dashboard:

What do I need to do to make a file download trackable?

In order for LUCY to track the download you need to append a variable called "?track" after the download link. Example: lets assume you upload a PDF file to LUCY. This file needs to be placed in the "static" directory of the server. The track variable can be placed after the filename like this:

%static%/example.pdf?track

Note: LUCY offers you within the web editor the option to quickly insert a file that can be tracked. Just select (1) where you want to place the file and then click on the button "insert trackable PDF" (2):
