When viewing a Salesforce report on "Knowledge Keyword Searches" or "Knowledge Search Activity," the report shows a maximum of 300 keywords in each day's results, even if more than 300 unique keywords were searched for that day. This is a known Salesforce platform limitation.
In Salesforce, all keyword searches that return results are stored throughout the day. At the end of the day, a batch process runs and truncates the data, keeping only the 300 most-used keywords per channel per day. The truncated records then become available for reporting — meaning results are not available for reporting for at least 24 hours after the searches occur.
Example: The report shows up to 300 of the most-used keywords for searches performed internally, and an additional 300 for searches performed from a public knowledge base. Less-used keywords for that day are not retained.
Real-life example: If your support team is analyzing search trends on a Monday morning, the report reflects keyword data from Sunday's batch process. It shows the 300 most-searched terms from Sunday — both for internal (agent) searches and for public Help portal searches — separately.
This is expected behavior and is not configurable.
