Adobe Analytics

In the old SAINT data export user-interface, we had the ability to filter the results exported based on number of rows (which we can still do), dates (which we can still do) and key values (which we cannot do). When we are addressing data changes by our users and trying to update a subset of the page classification values, this ability to fetch only a subset of the data that needed to be addressed was critical. Sadly we no longer have that ability in the new classification set interface. If it could be added back, that would be a tremendous boon for us. I know we can get this via the API, so the underlying code is there, it would be great if it were added back to the user interface as well.Thanks! 

When updating the panel date ranges, the Comparison Dates stay the same. This means we as users have to delete the old comp dates and percentage change metrics, then create new ones. On bigger “recycled” dashboards, this takes FOREVER! This one improvement would save me hours and hours and hours every year.Thanks! RR

I have several report builder reports that got out to many stakeholders. Anytime a change is made to one of the reports, it needs to be rescheduled so that the report will send with the changes. Simply going in to edit the schedule of the report and selecting “current workbook” does not actually update the file sent to the latest file with the changes. Because of this, the schedule needs to be set up from scratch again, which can be quite tedious when the recipient list is long and each individual needs to get re-entered because publishing lists are no longer an option.

In a freeform table, I frequently want to put in a specific valued dimension, and then a second dimension.If you select a specific value from a dimension, you cannot put a second dimension side by side.Can you fix this?I know we could use breakdown. but I like the side by side.At the moment I use filter to filter on the value I want. So, there are work-arounds, but it is annoying.

Rename “Last month”  to “1 month ago” in order to enable proper sorting in rows with “2 months ago” & “3 months ago”, Additionally create more “X months ago” to cover at least last 13 months so that trending can be done. Same with week ago would be optimal! Reason? Since person containers are affected by the selected reporting date range, the segment can be evaluated over the panel range rather than independently for every month row.  This is a problem when trending monthly numbers over a longer timespan than 3 months (also the 3 backwards monthly date ranges defy sorting in the right order which messes up bar charts due to “Last month”). Creating custom date ranges allows both proper sorting & meaningful bar charts. However this means each month a new one must be created. Better as suggested to have the X months ago made available in Workspace. 

Hi,With alot of users in Analytics, the structure and also findability of existing reports becomes difficult.As an administrator, I would like to be able to create area or topic folders, and default users to save their reports in the their area’s folders.Applicable to AA and CJA

The older version of the API, 1.4, allowed us to download a JSON of the processing rules in a suite.  Since these are instrumental in transforming data into eVars, Props, and Events, they are an essential part of maintaining the data quality of a suite.  The newest version of the API, 2.0, does not currently support accessing the processing rules, and it's been stated on Github that, as of this idea submission, processing rules access is not even on the roadmap.  Unless Adobe is going to eliminate these rules (and the eVars and Props that are driven by them), a mature multi-site installation of Adobe Analytics, esp. across mobile and web, relies on a constant overview of processing rules for maintenance, QA, and to aid site and mobile app developers.Please make sure that processing rules are accessible via the APIs, not just in version 2.0, but in all future versions.  Leaving 1.4 up is not a complete solution, as Adobe may deprecate it at any point.

Sometimes we need to create report on something - some area of interest - that is just too ungainly in a single report.The report freezes and crashes. It is hard to read and navigate, and it very slow to load and update.So in general on the platform, I would like a way to do have multiple reports grouped together.I have thought maybe a widget, that acts as a navigation point to link multiple reports grouped together might be something like the TABS you have in an excel spreadsheet. Applicable to Adobe Analytics and Customer Journey Analytcis.

A new feature that would be great to have is the ability to test marketing channel rules as you’re creating/saving them. Similar to what we have for classifications, where you can put in a test string and it will show how that string would be classified. It would be great to have this with marketing channels. How it should work:There should be an option to run a test where you can manually put in a URL, referrer, and other components (based on what components you’ve used to set up your rules). Either have it show up with all of the fields you’ve used and the option to populate them/leave them blank, or have dropdowns where you can select which fields you want to enter info for.Then have it run what you’ve entered against all of your rules and tell you which marketing channel it would get classified into. Why it’s important:Right now when making marketing channel processing rules, there isn’t currently a way to test them. It can be hard to mentally go through all of the rules and figure

In Adobe Analytics Segments we can use "equals" and "does not equal" to compare a variable against specific values.i.e. Page Name (evar1) does not equal “test”This is fine when you only have a few specific values to compare against. It would also be useful be able to compare the values of dimensions as a whole. The specific scenario that comes to mind is segmenting page views where Page Name and Previous Page name are not the same, but this could also work for a number of other scenarios.I.e. a segment that saysHitPage Name (evar1) does not equal Previous Page Name (evar2)

Current problemMy organisation uses centrally managed Analysis Workspace projects that are shared with a large population of Adobe Analytics users. These projects are commonly shared with broad product-profile groups using Edit copy, allowing users to work from a governed starting point without changing the original project.Within the Share dialogue, there is a checkbox labelled “Set as landing page for recipients”.If a project is shared with a large product-profile group, selecting this option and clicking Update can make that project the default landing page for every recipient in the group.This is a potentially high-impact action, but it is presented as a standard checkbox alongside lower-impact project-sharing settings. The interface does not provide a prominent warning explaining the scale of the change, clearly confirm which users will be affected, or offer an effective organisation-level method of reversing the action. Why this creates a governance riskIn a large organisation, A

It would be great to create a date range which is relative to the Date Ranges selected in the Panel. Right now, I can only visualize a fixed date range for a previous reporting period. Example: I create a report with last week as previous comparing period. When I change the Date Ranges in the Panel (e.g. last quarter) it will still compare the whole last quarter with last week.

There is an important option missing in the date rage panel.We can select the current period but not the selected period of the workspace. So it's not possible to create dynamic comparison to the current time range users set in the workspace.In other words we absolutely need these options:- current day- current week- current month- current quarter- current year- current date range

Dear Adobe Team,we are currently in transition from AA to CJA and are migration a ton of workspace to from AA to CJA.However the process is currently not really perfect as only CJA Admins can be chosen as Owner of the dashboard and its elements.We are aware of the workaround of first put the ownership on an admin. transfer the workspace and then later use Asset Transfer in CJA to set the real owner of the workspace but this is problematic and error prone as identifying all assets which ownership should also change is a lot of manual work.i guess that is also a problem for other admins that are in the transition and want to make as easy for the previous AA users the transition to CJA in having full access to their workspace as the workload explodes by only having CJA Admins and not CJA User as Owner ins transfer available.KRMarc

The Adobe Analytics API 1.4 is scheduled for decommissioning this summer, yet critical endpoints from this legacy API have not been integrated into API 2.0. This creates a significant gap in functionality that will impact many organizations relying on programmatic management of Adobe Analytics configurations.Missing Critical Functionality:The most important missing feature is the ability to programmatically:Create new Adobe Analytics variables (props, eVars, events) Modify existing variable configurations Delete variables when no longer neededCurrently, API 2.0 forces users to manually manage these variables through the Adobe Analytics interface, which is:Time-consuming for bulk operations Error-prone for complex configurations Incompatible with automated deployment workflows Difficult to integrate with CI/CD pipelinesBusiness Impact:Without this functionality in API 2.0, organizations will lose the ability to:Automate variable management across multiple report suites Maintain consiste

I recently created an SDR within the AA workspace project.  The thinking is that users should be encouraged to use the AA workspace tool as much as possible, as compared to generating an excel based SDR that has to be stored externally.   Some examples of what I built 1) a picture of the different sections of the SDR -    2) a picture of the different panels, one for each variable (props illustrated) indicated its number, its name and whether or not the variable is enabled   3) an overview of a specific variable details.   I get that there are some items in this example that might not be easy to automate, like the BRD reference number with a hyperlink,    but I think it would be great to have a tool in the AA admin areas that would generate an SDR template within Workspace grabbing all the information it can from the AA admin area report suite traffic and conversion variable screens.  UX:  The admin would click a button, the script wo

Description - Implementing the Analytics CNAME involves creating a subdomain for our website, which is then utilized to place cookies in a first-party context. However, during SEO crawling, these subdomains are scanned as well. To prevent Google from crawling these subdomains, we need to make adjustments to the robots.txt file located within it. Yet, as end users, we lack the capability to perform this task on our own and require assistance from Analytics Engineering to handle it on our behalf Why is this feature important to you -Search engines like Google allocate a crawl quota to domains, determining the time and resources dedicated to indexing a website. If these crawlers expend their resources on redundant URLs, like CNAME subdomains, there's a potential for vital content on our site to go unnoticed during indexing. This poses a risk of missing out on organic traffic if the crawlers neglect new or updated content while focusing on less crucial areas. How would you like t

!!NOT the same as being able to apply segment to calc. metrics!!Goal:Segment Visitors based on calculated metrics (such as  AOV)Problem:Calculated metrics is NOT available in Segmentation console.

Both the Section Headers and Table Of Contents have been good additions for making reports easier to read and navigate through - though have got a couple of thoughts on how they might be able to be improved further. 1) Add the full set of right-click functionality to Section Headers - At present, the only way that the Section Header visual can be interacted with is changing the text; the right-click menu that exists with other visualisation types isn’t there. However, I think it would be good to change this for two main reasons. ‘Edit description’ - This could be used to enable the adding of a short description or subtitle, between the main title and the line underneath the visualisation. ‘Get visualisation link’ - It would be good to be able to link directly to a Section Header. As a user who often adds an Introduction or Contents section to tell users what they can find in a report, it’s nice to add links in, but currently you have to link to any other visual that’s close to the Sect

Adobe recently announced Sub-Hit analysis for Adobe Analytics. However, this feature will be limited to the Products variable, according to the documentation.Since many customers are using List Vars and List Props, support for Sub-Hit analysis for these dimension types is needed. Please extend this feature to those dimension types.

Currently, Adobe Analytics custom bot rules only support filtering based on User-Agent, IP Address, or IP Range. However, when modern browsers (like Chrome or Edge) send requests without Client Hints, Adobe replaces the un-vetted minor version with a .999 placeholder in the reporting backend (e.g., Chrome 148.999), which is surfaced via the standard Browser dimension.Because this fallback logic happens downstream from the initial User-Agent ingestion, we cannot reliably capture or block these specific spikes using standard User-Agent string matching in our Bot Rules.Why this is needed: A sudden spike in .999 browser versions is a strong indicator of low-quality or bot traffic. However, our data quality is currently suffering because we have no native way to translate this specific reporting dimension back into a bot filter rule. Relying on complex VISTA data engineering or shifting IP ranges is inefficient for dealing with browser-specific anomalies.Proposed Solution: Expand standard A

Hi Adobe Team, It would be great to have the ability to manually set the cookieDomain in WebSDK (noting that there was previous functionality in Adobe Analytics that allowed for this). We have noticed that in our implementation in some environments the AMCV and kndctr cookies are being placed on the incorrect domain. Adobe Engineering Support has explained that it is because the Web SDK does a guess and check approach that finds the shortest set of subdomains that will accept cookies (based on the publicsuffix list). If a domain is on the list, you cannot write cookies for any of it's sub-domains as the cookies will be incorrectly placed on the main domain, rather than the sub-domain. This is problematic if you require separate cookies to be placed on each separate sub-domain.  Currently there appears to be no way to manually set the cookieDomain, as mentioned in the following documentation:"The Web SDK can determine the correct cookie storage domain witho

Currently, Workspace allows us to export reports in PDF and CSV formats. We would like to know if it would be possible to also add Excel (.xlsx) as an export option, as we are experiencing several issues when working with CSV files:- We work with program and video titles that contain commas. When exporting the report as a CSV and opening it to process the data, these titles are split into multiple columns, making the data difficult to work with.- For time-based metrics, the CSV export converts the values into seconds, causing us to lose the time format (hh) and preventing us from working with the data correctly.We would also like this enhancement to apply not only to report exports, but also to the scheduled delivery of reports in Excel format through both Workspace and Data Warehouse.Thank you in advance.

At this time, there doesn’t seem to be any good options for copying Report Builder requests from one file to another. There is a Copy / Paste request option built into the Add-On which is amazing, but this only works within the same file. You cannot copy a request from one file into another. I tested this by opening and logging into two Excel Reports, copying a simple request from Report A, then going into Report B and selecting a cell… there was no Paste option available. I can understand that this might be an Add-On scope issue, but what about adding an Export / Import function that can export out an XML or JSON formatted file that can then be imported into another Excel instance… and hopefully this would support bulk rules and not just one at a time, as this would make merging reports into one large report so much easier (than the current “rebuild all requests from scratch”). This feature would be a huge time saver to:make copies of common requests to other files merging reports tog

Hi Everyone,I wanted to share a new Chrome extension I’ve been using called TagScanner that has significantly streamlined my Adobe Tags (Launch) auditing workflow.As implementation scale increases, keeping track of library bloat and rule dependencies can get tricky. TagScanner helps by loading all details about any Adobe Tags property directly from the page.Key Features:Direct Page Reading: It reads the Tags library directly from the browser—no remote code or extra permissions required. Comprehensive Visibility: Quickly view all active Rules, Data Elements, and Extensions in a single interface. Performance Insights: It displays exact file sizes and usage details, making it much easier to identify "heavy" rules or unused code that might be slowing down your site. Effortless Documentation: Perfect for cleaning up legacy properties or creating implementation documentation for stakeholders.It’s been a great addition to my toolkit for quick audits without having to dig through the Data Coll
