Adobe Analytics

As per the current design of Date range, the rolling date can only be set relative to "current" options like current day/week.We are looking for a feature where user should be able to compare Last Year data relative to the report/panel selected date.For example, if we create a date range LY to represent Last Year. We expect these to work as below.Use case: Suppose today's date is Nov 30th, 2019. And we select Nov-19-2019 as the date in Panel/report, then we expect:  LY to show Nov-19-2018 dataCurrently, it shows Nov 30, 2018 data

Description -I would like to use Selected Virtual report suite in Data Warehouse.We can use normal VRS in DWH.However Selected VRS, we can’t use.Why is this feature important to you -We would like to control accessing for data , dimensions and metrics same as Workspace.Currently, we control the access data with segmented VRS.And we set up selected dimension and metrics in VRS.Because of data security policies.We also would like to control to using DWH with the same policies.How would you like the feature to work -I would like to use Selected Virtual report suite in Data Warehouse.Current Behavior -We can't use Selected Virtual report suite in Data Warehouse.

Many Analytics server applications are now offering 'embed codes' for custom web apps. This works by clicking on the dashboard. A dropdown comes up with embed code that includes a custom iframe or script +div code. Tableau, Domo and others are now offering this feature. The embedded code in the web app will prompt you to log in through SSO, keeping the data secure. Adobe Analytics should incorporate this feature for use in custom applications. We are building a simple reporting dashboard and were surprised that Adobe doesn't have it. In fact Adobe blocks any attempt to host a chart when the source URL is not the same as the host. If you look at this article it provides a really intuitive experience with a GUI for users. This one is best in class: https://plotly.com/chart-studio-help/embed-graphs-in-websites/

Description - In the Flow visualisation, when you mouseover the steps' dimensions, the visualisation expands to show the individual dimensions in each step. But the "Eventual Path" / "Next Hit" line is above these dimension listings.Why is this feature important to you -I consider this to be basic user experience. Reading from top to bottom for each step, the visualisation should first show what that step comprises of. After that, then the "Eventual Path" / "Next Hit" can be shown to "link" that step to the next step.The current behaviour forces the eye to move back up to see which of "Eventual Path" / "Next Hit" has been selected for the next step.How would you like the feature to work -Move the "Eventual Path" / "Next Hit" to after the dimension listings. See graphic.Current Behaviour -The "Eventual Path" / "Next Hit" are before the dimension listings.

Description - The date selector in Workspace should float and follow you as you scroll up and down a panel.Why is this feature important to you - My Workspace panels often get quite long and I often have to check/change/remind myself of the time period I've selected. It can be annoying and time consuming to scroll right back to the top of the panel to find the date selector. Having it floating at the top right corner would be fantastic as I could just glance at it at any point in the project to check the date range the project is currently set to, or amend it.How would you like the feature to work - The date selector in Workspace should float and follow you as you scroll up and down a panel.Current Behaviour - Date Selector is fixed at top of workspace panel

This is something most Adobe users do not know nor expect nor does it make much sense: Marketing channels have a rolling 30-day expiration, whether a channel was touched or not. Tracking codes have an expiration based on when the variable was defined. https://helpx.adobe.com/in/analytics/kb/comparing-tracking-codes-and-marketing-channels.html "Expiration differences: Marketing channels have a rolling 30-day expiration, whether a channel was touched or not. Tracking codes have an expiration based on when the variable was defined. For example:The campaign variable is set to expire after 30 days; your marketing channel visitor engagement expiration is also set to 30 days.A user arrives on your site via the tracking code promotion3, then leaves.They come back three weeks later without a tracking code or marketing channel, and exit the site again.Another three weeks later, they come back without a tracking code or marketing channel, then make a purchase.The user ultimately made a

Please can you consider adding hour as as an option in the date range builder? (so it is possible to do "start of current hour" minus 1 "hour" etc.) Every other time period is available (e.g. day, week) so it is rather frustrating that we can't use hour - there are so many great things this would allow us to do! :-) 

Description - As per current behaviour, as long as the Virtual Report Suite is Data Warehouse compatible, you would be able to run the request. However, if it is not compatible you will still be able to create the request with this VRS, with failed status and no prior warning.There should be a warning or an error message on selection of Virtual reports which are not DWH compatible. Why is this feature important to you - It is quite misleading as there are several VRS and we won't remember which all are DWH compatible and which are not. How would you like the feature to work - The VRS which are not compatible should either do not appear in the DWH interface OR there should be a warning on selection of the VRS. 

Description - Make the Schedule Renewal page use the Analytics page template. Currently, the page design looks like an afterthought.Why is this feature important to you - It allows users to navigate to other parts of Analytics immediately.How would you like the feature to work -E.g. include the top main menu, shortcuts to other parts of Analytics, etc.Current Behaviour - The Schedule Renewal just shows a message to renew the schedule and whether the renewal is successful or not. There are not other calls-to-action. 

Description - "Enhanced Security - just in time user provisioning access to Adobe tools".  When an employee from a customer company connects to Adobe via SSO, Adobe uses the authentication and authorization information from the customer company to create a secured session with just those permissions the user has been granted, user does their work, then at time of user exiting Adobe tools, the secured session is destroyed.  No individual user account information would be stored on Adobe end, only group permission information.  Customer company sends the user's group information in SSO handshake.Why is this feature important to you - Financial Services clients are always needing more and  better user authentication and authorization methods to reduce risk of cyber crime from external sources.  Removing Financial Services employee information from Adobe servers reduces risk exposure.How would you like the feature to work - When an employee from a customer com

Improve the Search Components capability in Analysis Workspace the way it will be possible to search by keywords in the component description (metrics, dimensions, segments, date ranges) too.The description area contains lots of useful details that will help users find the right metric or dimension.

Description -How would you like the feature to work -Whenever users drag a dimension to a blank Freeform table, suggest a set of metrics to be added to the table at the same time.  Or instead of adding 'Occurrences' , add a set of 'most relevant' metrics automatically.  For example, when adding Product dimension, automatically adds Product Views, Order and Revenue.  What are the 'most relevant' metrics can be customized per dimension by the administrator, and the user has the option to turn this feature on/off of course. Why is this feature important to you -I notice many users often not adding the 'most relevant' set of metric to a dimension for their analysis, sometimes even adding a wrong metric to a dimension thinking it will answers their question, which leads to a lot of confusions and sometimes even doubt whether the data or the tool is trustworthy.   

Hi There, I am aware that there are limitations that can be placed on sharing and building segments / reports etc however I am in a business that has hundreds (if not thousands) of segments, workspaces and custom metrics that are simply not used. What I would love to be able to do is use the API to find a "LastAccessed" date for these so that I can safely remove things that haven't been used in 18+ months to clean up our workspace (and speedup) for users. ThanksDave

We have seen our organization use workspace widely. And a power user has lot many projects created. Currently workspace doesn't support any folder management and it has a plain search to find the report. And this makes it difficult to access projects in future when it is required.It also reduces the visibility of Admin shared projects. As a result, users within org end up creating their own projects to answer their questions instead leveraging admin shared/authorized projects. Net-net, this also pulls down org efficiency

Description - our intranet site visits from http://intra are reported a referring type = "Typed/Bookmarked instead" of "Other Web Sites" , although when using UTM codes and looking at the previous pages we can definitively see traffic pages from the intranet site (actual intranet pages showing up). I wonder if because there are no "." in the "domain", AA does not consider the visits as coming from another website (no valid domain as per rule established) and just default to "Typed/Bookmarked".Why is this feature important to you - data consistency / we monitor portions of traffic coming from our intranet.How would you like the feature to work - When there is a previous page known, the referring type should be Other Web Sites when not pre-established as an another type such as Search Engine.Current Behaviour - intranet traffic reported as Typed/Bookmarked

Description - com.google reported as referring type = "Other Web Sites" instead of "Search Engines"com.google is apparently how google searches on android devices are reported (app?)Why is this feature important to you - Clean data instead of using filtersHow would you like the feature to work - com.google to be reported as referring type = "Search Engines" Current Behaviour - com.google reported as referring type = Other Web Sites

As an analyst I want to be able to create metrics defined by a merchandising dimension (Product). This is important to us as we want to create metrics for everyone to use in the business and have insights on: % of units or revenue from full price products only, collections(created with Product classification) KPI's etcThe created calculated metric (example: Units metric of one specific product or merch dimension) should only return data specified by the dimension and not any additional dimension data that were on the same hit.At the moment when creating a calculated metric with a merchandising feature (example: Product dimension for Units metric), Adobe will return data for other products that were in the same order. 

Description - When using the Adobe Analytics connector in Power BI, sometimes there is a refresh and zero rows are returned for one or multiple queries against the API. This results in the report showing no data, especially if the query related to a key fact table/data. The API should instead error out so that Power BI fails on the refresh. This would leave data from the previous day in the report AND notify the dataset owner that their refresh had failed.Why is this feature important to you - Users going to see a report with no data is far worse than just seeing old data. We show how old the data is in a report and missing one day isn't a big deal, but having the report go blank makes it useless. How would you like the feature to work - The API should return an error if its out of resources or at some threshold limit. Current Behaviour - From a support request, this is what is happening today: “The API quota limit is 20K calls per hour per Analytics company for 1.3/1.4

Description - An AA logo indicator or label indicating type of plan used eg select, prime etc Easier for clients to differentiate which version that have or want to haveWhy is this feature important to you - I deal with support tickets and often clients are trying something but it is not part of their AA instance or enabled for their AA instance I believe a simple label and logo which links to versions urls will help a lot I could also see the marketing value in that not all practitioners know there might be more features they could use if their org paid for them. If clicking the indicator could show what they're missing, it might help launch discussions internally within customers to make the case for more advanced options.How would you like the feature to work - a logo or label that links to a URL describing AA type eg prime features etcCurrent Behaviour - only via admin menu eg company settings 

Description - Requesting for a new Metric to be added, which will give the number of Days a user visited a Page / Feature in a specific time period.Why is this feature important to you - Since the past few months, we have been getting a lot of asks on the Day frequency for users to a construct, which is not available in Omniture currently. With multiple new features being added to Flipkart, this has become a critical metric for us, to monitor the stickiness of users.How would you like the feature to work - For the overall platform or any specific page, we can get Visits or Visitors. 'Days' as a metric will give us the count of the number of Days in a date range that the user visited.Current Behaviour - There is no metric which will tell us the number of Days a user visited on the platform or a particular construct. A lot of analyses are blocked due to this.

Please upgrade Report Builder to the newer API (2.0) version, so we'll have the same numbers in our report (with Report Builder) as in workspace.

Hello, I am wondering why the Search Bar of the Adobe Acrobat Reader can only be moved at the upper edge. It would be much more convenient if one was able to place it manually wherever it is most fitting, like e.g. in Microsoft Office Word. Then it could be placed in a way that it would not interfere with reading the document, for example. This would add much flexibility and comfort in my opinion. What do you guys think?

When the 3rd party cookies are blocked, the Visitor ID is not being shared between different domains. I have implemented a custom code to accomplish the Visitor.appendVisitorIDsTo(URL) solution: https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/id-service/using/id-service-api/methods/appendvisitorid.html?lang=en#id-service-apiDon't you think that it would be useful to create an extension to accomplish this in an easy way? Something like Google Tag Manager does for this scenario that it's a simple checkbox specifying that you need "cross-domain" tracking. I think that this is not something difficult and it would help a lot of "non-technical" people. Regards.

Description - It would be handy if Adobe Analytics would remember the previous date ranges I've used when running a report - specific to that report. Much like Google remembers your previous searches and suggest them. Why is this feature important to you - I run custom date ranges back and forth all the time, and these vary according to business needs. They are too ephemeral to create and save a custom date range. I just need to be able to retrieve recently used time ranges to compare data etc when running a data analysis, maybe for a few days in a row. How would you like the feature to work - I click on the date ranges presets or similar field and there I can find recently used date ranges.Current Behaviour - I can only manually select a range or more permanently save a custom date range.

It should be possible to apply a segment on a mobile scorecard by default. At the moment the default is always blank and each user needs to select a segment from a drop-down.There are a number of reports that require a segment selection by default. Mobile Scorecards should be able to apply a segment by default. The scorecard editor should be able to select which segment to be applied in a default view.
