Is it possible to see the topics a user has viewed?

I’m analysing the user stats & activity on our forum.

I’d like to see the specific topics a user has viewed. So far the most detailed activity I can find about the user is just the number of “Topics Viewed” & “Posts Read” in the Admin -> Users grids.

I’ve installed the Data Explorer plugin to see if there’s more data, but haven’t been able to find anything useful in terms of detailed user activity logs & topic/post access.

TIA

Maybe something like:

Who (logged in user) view specific topic

-- [params]
-- int :topic_id = 1

SELECT
    title,
    viewed_at,
    tv.user_id
FROM topics t
LEFT JOIN topic_views tv
    ON t.id = tv.topic_id
WHERE category_id IS NOT NULL
    AND tv.user_id IS NOT NULL
    AND t.id = :topic_id
ORDER BY viewed_at DESC
LIMIT 1000

Last 100 topic view by user

-- [params]
-- int :user_id = 1

SELECT
    tv.user_id,
    title,
    viewed_at,
    views,
    t.user_id
FROM topics t
LEFT JOIN topic_views tv
    ON t.id = tv.topic_id
WHERE category_id IS NOT NULL
    AND tv.user_id = :user_id
ORDER BY viewed_at DESC
LIMIT 100
