Meet your Mentor
As the saying goes, if you love what you do, you never have to work a single day! I am lucky enough to be living along these lines during last ten years with Digital Analytics. I am currently channelling my passion as Digital Analytics Lead for Three Ireland, Ireland's largest telecommunications and lifestyle accessories provider. I have worked with multiple organizations handling Fortune 500 clients across industries including B2B & B2C alike on various Adobe Experience Cloud products. I have been responsible for managing & executing end-to-end analytics processes from requirements gathering to key insights generation and providing recommendations for personalization strategies and executing them. At Three, I am single handedly managing entire Adobe Analytics ecosystem following entire Digital Analytics lifecycle including tagging requirement analysis, implementation, QA, reporting, and insights generation. As Adobe Analytics Champion 2023 and leader of Ireland Adobe Analytics User Group, I strongly advocate importance of Digital Analytics.

Hi @JyotiSharmaV ,
That's a great question and thanks for sharing your thoughts! Though what you are saying absolutely makes sense, but with segment comparison you would not be able to go further in time and group on common characteristics. For example, take this scenario - If you want to report on number of users who are returning to login to your website every week. You would be looking at the specific cohort of visitors who have logged in over duration of weeks. Segment comparison on the other hand can give you an overlap of visitors let's say who have logged in from mobile and desktop both.
Hope this makes this clear! If not, please feel free to ask more questions as that's going to make the learning journeys smooth.
I will go with Segment Comparison as it's more of a characteristic-based

@igupta - We have pretty tight permissions within our organization, and it looks like I may need Admin access to work through some of the course modules. Is there a sandbox or test environment that we can use during this mentorship program?

Hi @jc608 ,
As per my understanding there are two ways of getting access to sandbox.
1. If your organization is Adobe's solution partner, you can request access to Sandbox through SPP portal.
2. You can request free sandbox directly from Adobe but I have limited info on this and I believe it only offers workspace functionality. - https://adobeexchangeec.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360016599972-Adobe-Analytics-Access-Your-Sandb...
Hi @seanrobinson - Is there any other way to get access to sandbox? Can you please advise?
Hi vanipv , Ying_Liu , AvniShah , jc608, JyotiSharmaV, Karuppiah_Sakthivel, TuhinaDasChoudhury
How is everyone doing? We are at the wrap of week 1. Does everyone had the chance to review the section marked for week 1?
Also, at no point, please feel the pressure of timelines. The goal is to learn and that can be according to your own pace. As pretty evident, we all are busy with our work and personal commitments too!
I am travelling this week and will do some catch up this weekend
I am about halfway through the first section. I've especially liked the information on the segment comparison panel as we don't routinely use this feature. It was nice to learn that in freeform tables where there are static rows, it's possible to change the settings to total only those rows. Just a couple of the gems picked up on so far!

Hi vanipv , Ying_Liu , AvniShah , jc608, JyotiSharmaV, Karuppiah_Sakthivel, TuhinaDasChoudhury ,
For those of you, who were able to review this content, please feel free to use this thread for Q&As. I am open to scheduling a weekly one hour call as well for discussions and queries. Please let me know your thoughts and we can schedule one this week.

Sounds great! I am not sure of everyone's time zone. I am in GMT. I will create a user group event and share link here to join as I think, that would be easiest to manage & record for those who can't make it. I will try to schedule something for this week. If not, next week onwards, we can have the catch ups.
Hi vanipv , Ying_Liu , AvniShah , jc608, JyotiSharmaV, Karuppiah_Sakthivel, TuhinaDasChoudhury ,
Hope everyone is having an amazing week! I had a long weekend here in Ireland. For Week 2, we would be focusing on section 2 of the syllabus. Please feel free to review the content at your own timelines.
Hi. Quick question... are we able to take the practice exam more than once? Thanks, Jodi

Time for weekly quiz!
Which Adobe Analytics tool provide the most granular or hit level data?
I am going to go with #3, "Data Feeds" as the way to provide the most granular (hit based and visitor ID), Data Warehouse what we use to access variables that are not pulled into Workspace, like IP addresses, etc. (But am a bit torn thinking #5 could also be correct. Depending...)
You are absolutely correct. We get hit level granular data only from Data Feeds. Consider this as data taken straight to Database tables. Data warehouse is useful when you want to pull huge data and data such as you mentioned IP address.

5. Both B & C
Thank you @jc608 & @JyotiSharmaV for replying.
Correct answer is C - Data Feeds. Only the data feed provides hit-level granularity; the rest are aggregated.
