Let’s talk about using report collection so today we talk about how to get Magento 2 most viewed product collection. Most viewed production collection in depend on number of time product viewed by user. First we have to inject the Reports\ProductCollection in you block or helper any other file you want to use it. So let start with coding. In this example I am going to inject into my block.

Step 1: Create a block file

<?php
/**
* Simple Hello World Module
*
* @category QaisarSatti
* @package QaisarSatti_HelloWorld
* @author Muhammad Qaisar Satti
* @Email qaisarssatti@gmail.com
*
*/
namespace QaisarSatti\HelloWorld\Block;
class BestSeller extends \Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template
{

protected $_collectionFactory;
protected $_productsFactory;
public function __construct(
\Magento\Backend\Block\Template\Context $context,
\Magento\Reports\Model\ResourceModel\Product\CollectionFactory $productsFactory,
array $data = []
) {

$this->_productsFactory = $productsFactory;
parent::__construct($context, $data);
}
public function getMostViewedData(){

$mostViewedCollection = $this->_productsFactory->create()->addViewsCount();
return $mostViewedCollection;
}
}

Step 2: Show Output

Getting collection in phtml file from block.

<?php
$mostViewedProduct = $block->getMostViewedData(); ?>
<h1>Most Viewed Collection.....</h1>
<ul>
<?php foreach ($mostViewedProduct as $viewedProduct) {
?>
<li><?php echo $viewedProduct>getSku();?>--<?php echo $viewedProduct>getViews();?></li>
<?php } ?>
</ul>
