Adobe Analytics

When you drag a component into a segment definition there is no reference to the variable (i.e. eVar1) it refers to.  So for classification folders, if they do not contain the variable reference in the friendly name (i.e. page url (v1)) you do not know.  Can this be added?  I believe it was just added for components in analysis workspace tables.

Hello,When I compare time periods I can not always compare to same periods last year so I have to do it with the customized way. Moreover, when I change the initial period, the comparison doest not change reciprocally and I have to do it manually.It would be great and useful, if these updates could be done.Thanks for the support.

Hi,Glad to see the new enhanced options for workspace.It would be great if below are fixed in next release.1) When new segment is created it is not retroactively available on other opened work space tabs to use (it requires refresh-not a good option when you are in midst of deep diving). It will be great time saver as it will enable users to use the segment without disturbing the current thought flow in data analysis.2) Enable count of months/days/weeks/quarter to create/use in advanced calculated metrics based on report date range.For ex: visit/day should automatically be adjusted to set date range.Thanks!

Currently Admin Console gives the perception that granting permissions by product profile is a scalable way to grant permissions, with AND logic, and reinforced here: Enterprise Help | Manage product permissions in the Admin Console. After talking with Adobe client care, this is false. Not only can product profile permissions conflict with each other, in an OR logic fashion, but there is no way to know how product profiles will interact with each other except through trial and error (per Adobe Client Care Incident: 190204-000614). For example, in trying to combine a product profile with a single report suite in it with a product profile granting access to an array of data feeds utilities, the user does not get access to the single report suite such that it can be used in combination with the data feeds permissions. This was confirmed by ACC.Solution proposed:- Create product wide AND or OR logic for product permissions and document it, ideally AND logic

We recently had a brand hit 1M PVs for the day, and wanted to see the last time a brand hit a milestone like that. We had to pour through older reports and cross-reference them in Omniture, which proved to be a tedious task.  We'd love to have a milestone log that we can enter in pre-determined milestones (i.e. 1M PVs in a day, 500k UVs in a day), and have all brands automatically update anytime said milestone is hit.  What is the likelihood something like this could be set up? The data is already there, it would just be creating an interface to capture the marks and list them together. Thanks! BonnierG

Hi,we want to give Adobe Analytics access to an external partner - with limited access to only a few metrics and dimensions. For this we created a virtual report suite, where we limited the access to one specific segment, created a product profile and a user profile. For those profiles we also specified only a few metrics that should be visible for the external partner. Unfortunately, while testing we discovered that the partner can also view all calculated metrics that are shared with "All users". This is currently a blocker for us - we do not want that the external partner can see all shared calculated metrics and can use them in Workspace. So the solution would be to only show the metrics and dimensions that have been specified for the virtual report suite and product profile.Thank you and best regardsPatrick

Make them more like Classification Rule Builder Rules, where you create a rule and specify what report suite(s) it should apply to.  It is a NIGHTMARE having to maintain PRs across hundreds of report suites!

Currently, the Analysis Workspace auto-generated conditional formatting feature doesn't work very well.  If you have a large date range with various metrics, it doesn't dynamically change or adjust to changes.  Often times you have to use the manual feature to sett upper and lower bounds.I'd like to see this feature work better so you can make changes and have the color schemes change dynamically.  If that isn't possible, I'd like to have the ability to set the upper and lower bounds by using a formula that uses the same functions already available in Analysis Workspace.

Currently, analysts who want to understand variable settings (expiration, special settings like merchandizing, etc.) either must have administrative access or must rely on documentation provided by others. It would be really helpful to allow a level of access where administrative settings can be viewed but not changed.With more eyeballs on the settings, this could also have the added benefit of catching errors in settings, etc., more quickly.

...thus preventing unwanted/nuisance alerts :-) It would be great if there was a way to tell Adobe when our maintenance windows were so alerts weren't triggered. Potentially it may be neccessary to configure on a per alert (or group of alerts) basis as different areas of our site have different maintenance windows.

We are testing and planning to implement server-side tracking for the following reasons.  1. We have seen an increase in the percentage of blocked traffic due to ad blockers and only expect this to grow as extensions, addons, and plugins expand to mobile.  2. Browsers like Firefox are now blocking Adobe Analytics and other trackers by default.3. Our product teams are moving toward single page apps.  Tag managers are more reliant on data layers especially as these sites move towards 'minified' classes.5. We would like to enrich the data we send to Adobe with data not available to our clients at the time of data capture.Much like a native app implementation, an Adobe server-side implementation currently is less flexibility than a datalayer/tag management implementation.  Given this I would like to provide the following ideas.Add the ability to 'kill' or 'delete' a server call.  There are always cases (i.e. bugs) where we may want to prevent data from hitting collection servers since it c

Hi Team,I am generating a report using DWH. I used Traffic variables, In the report head,  I am seeing the variable number say prop61, prop62, prop63 appended to the variable name as below Page Name(prop63), Page ID(prop64). Could you please provide an option to show or hide the variable number in the column header?   

I've been working with Workspace for a while and admittedly some of my projects have grown pretty large.  As such, as I work on them / update them per our business needs it would extremely helpful if we had the option to refresh a single chart/table, in addition to being able to refresh the entire project.  I was thinking we could add that feature to the 'right click' menu of portlet, same menu that shows 'duplicate visualization'.  Please advise on if this is something that is already on the product roadmap

Webmaster Tools provides great visibility into search performance - full keyword list of terms, with impressions, clickthroughs, average position, etc. This information has become even more valuable as most organic search terms are now blocked. The Webmaster Tools interface, however, isn't fantastic, and the ability to get the data organized and exported properly is frustrating. Google Analytics has helped here - you can link GA and Webmaster Tools, to allow users to take advantage of GA's better reporting functionality. It seems to me Adobe should do the same here - by using the Webmaster Tools API (https://developers.google.com/webmaster-tools/) full keyword data could be brought into the Analytics interface. Granted it isn't integrated with site usage data, but that's still a whole lot better than what is in place now. My guess is almost 100% of clients would want this functionality. Right now, we are running both Adobe and GA in parallel in order to get this reporting functionality

More often than not I experience that Workspace gets sluggish if you use it for a while. Up to the point that the whole page becomes unresponsive and you need to restart the browser or even reboot the system. A couple of users experienced this on various machines. It seems to consume a lot of resources.

Since minute granularity is available in Workspace, this provides some great insights! However it is a pity that for extracing larger sets of data, this needs to be done manualyl via Workspace. It would be great if you'd enable minute granularity in DWH requests!

I think it would be super-cool if users could use SHIFT or CTRL to select rows in Analysis Workspace and temporarily see them grouped together and with metrics for the grouped rows summed. Today, you have to leave what you are doing and either build a segment or create a SAINT Classification. This stops the flow of doing analysis.For example, let's say that I am looking at a Freeform Table with Day of Year as the dimension. What if I wanted to group the first 7 rows and see the data aggregated. It would be great if I could select the rows and then right-click to open a new table that has those rows summed.As another example, what if I were looking at a set of blog posts (or pages) and I randomly wanted to search for the ones that include the word "campaign" (shown below) and see all of that aggregated into one row:In the future, it would be cool if these ad-hoc (no pun intended!) selections could be saved, shared and turned into segments...Better yet would be a way to create these aggr

Workspace is pretty, but it's not the fastest, especially when working close to the max of 25 months of data. Slow speeds compound in frustration when Workspace tries to recalculate whole tables and connected visualizations each time something changes. Modifying a table is next to impossible when reconfiguring each dimension or metric causes 15+ seconds of recalculation of the table and it's associated visualizations.Tableau gets around this with a pause button. I would hugely appreciate this functionality.Features of the pause button- Panel-level pausing for all calculations in the panel. Button would be available in header to pause panels before expanding them- All visualizations can still be configured, and all components accessed, but no new data would be calculated- Visualizations with changes made during a pause would gain some sort of highlight/color change- Export functionality could be turned off- Bonus: pressing the pause button halts all current calculations being performed,

Hi Adobe,It will be great if minute/ time stamp level granularity can be provided for Adobe Analytics Data Warehouse extracts. This will especially help to understand the chronological journey of visitors. Also, a hit id or hit number within a visit will also help for the same. Hope Adobe can add these two features for Data Warehouse extracts soon in future. Thanks!Best regards,Srujana

I did contact Client Care about this as I believe it's a bug / defect but they advised it's working as per design, if so the design would seem to be a bit flawed.The introduction of visibility control for an event was a great idea (though I'm still waiting on the same for dimensions). The concept of hiding except for builders so the front end isn't bombarded with unnecessary events makes a lot of sense, we can rely on calculated metrics to surface what we want, how we want and with any necessary modifications (e.g. segments or calculations). What doesn't make sense to me though is that to me the idea was about making things easy in the front end, Data Warehouse however can't use calculated metrics which means if you want to use any event in Data Warehouse you can't use the function. I would view Data Warehouse as a 'builder' given you can't use calculated metrics (in the same way you can't in builders) and it's designed for more technical users getting out large scale data.Not being ab

Hello,It will be great if we can introduce an option to change the Number Format in Axis as per our convenience. The default option stays with Decimal : Below the screen grab.It was an question in the forum earlier to change the Decimal Format to Integer. Unfortunately I am afraid that we dont have the option right now in Work Space.Can we take it up?Thank You!Arun

Analytics is so integral to our business that losing any portion of it for an hour is an issue. I want to be kept abreast of when an issue is resolved. I want the ability to select tools that I'm interested in automatically receiving maintenance / issue alerts for. For example, when there are issues with Analytics, I can currently subscribe to an issue to see the ongoing status of the issue. I want to get these automatically without having to manually subscribe. I would even like to have a set of email addresses that would receive these.

If you have a report in workspace using an event, something like product views as your metric and week as your dimension, and you see a drop in views in the last week and you want to see which day that started on, you would break it down by day. However, when breaking down by day, it will give you a list of all days in your time period, not just the days in the week you are breaking down, like this:I don't understand why this would be the case. I would expect to only see the days in the week I am breaking down. One thing to note, when I do that same type of report but use a standard metric (like visits, page views) then this issue doesn't happen (I only see the days of the week I am breaking down).

I'd like to use more often the Visualisation type "Text" - however, I'd see a lot more benefit if it was possible to use image content.Cheers/sandro

On the new Experience Cloud Debugger, please add the following fields that existed on the old Digital Pulse Debugger::1. Version of Code - this shows which version of AppMeasurement the page is using (note: this is different than the Javascript version)2. Third Party Cookies - this shows the tracking server in use.Having these two added in would make it much easier to properly debug new pages to make sure the comply with the rest of the site.Thanks.
