I know that classic experience has this option where you can see the most viewed items inside a document library.

What is the equivalent of this feature inside modern experience document library?

We have thousands of files, and only a few of them are frequently used. Views and filtering are used but don’t really solve this problem.

Is there a way so the default of Document Library shows only the most used items and not thousands of other items that are rarely used?

Keeping in mind that I can’t know which items are mostly used due to the fact that our Sharepoint online has a of of users

If you need to target specific library only, you can use these settings:

  • Custom query

Query

  • Source: This site
  • Query text (KQL): ContentTypeId:0x0101* path:"https://contoso.sharepoint.com/Shared Documents/*"
  • Sort by: Most viewed

  • Chances are your tenant doesn't have this update rolled out yet. Maybe you can check it in a week or so. Commented Aug 29, 2019 at 12:09
