Need way to add a counter on a dashboard for user "views" or visits

Hi everyone. Absolute beginner here. I'm tasked to make a few dashboards for other internal company teams on project progress, etc. We want to track how often people visit each dashboard and thought it might be useful to include that as a counter widget on the dashboards.

Mockup example below.

Doable??

As a workaround, you might set something up with the help of a third-party service like Zapier or similar. (count the clicks of the link and then that gets added to a sheet)

I already have a Smartsheet license with my company, but I was recently invited to collaborate on a sheet owned by another group within the same organization. When I accepted, I was told I need to upgrade in order to edit or contribute. Can you please explain why this is required? It seems unreasonable to need multiple…
