@sakthi rajasekar - Welcome to Microsoft Q&A and thanks for reaching out.

Azure Artifacts does not provide a built-in feature to track user details who are downloading the package.

However, you can use Azure DevOps Analytics to track package downloads. Azure DevOps Analytics provides a set of pre-built reports and dashboards that you can use to analyze data from Azure DevOps.

To track package downloads, you can use the "Package Downloads" report in Azure DevOps Analytics. This report shows the number of package downloads over time and allows you to filter by package name, feed name, and user. You can also export the data to Excel or Power BI for further analysis.

To use Azure DevOps Analytics, you need to have the appropriate permissions. You can learn more about permissions in Azure DevOps here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/organizations/security/permissions?view=azure-devops

To learn more about Azure DevOps Analytics and how to use the "Package Downloads" report, please look at the documentation: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/report/analytics/package-downloads-overview?view=azure-devops

Hope this helps. and please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions.
