tracking a new page

[#1]

Hi There,

How can I get notified if a new page has been added to tracking via the CMS?

Every time a new page has been added via CMS and Adobe Analytics starts tacking it, I want to get notified.

Please help

Interesting puzzle.

One of the ideas is to set up a classification for the Pages, configure Rule Builder to set any value to the classification. Since it is processed nightly, you can set up an alert to check if the "unspecified" value has more than zero page views. If the alert is fired before the Classification is applied, then you will get a notification when a new page gets tracked in Adobe Analytics with a latency up to a day.

However, the question is why you want to get notified when a new page appears...

I would go for a "date" somewhere on the page/data layer, something like "date created"/"date modified". this would allow to track both the dates and a "today" prop which you could use for an alert...

maybe you can create a calculated metric like

{

if (page views last 12 month excluding yesterday) = 0 AND (page views yesterday) > 0

then "1"

else "0"

}

breakdown by pagename and sort by metric would show the pages who have new hits but no pageviews the last 12 month (just an indication for a new page...)
