Is there a limit on how many cloud segments you can create? I work at a large corporation and we actually have reached a limit, but this limit is not clear to us.
Hi Tina - Yes, you can have 20 segments shared from Analytics at any given time. The following is pulled from our documentation here:
Important: You must limit the number of audiences shared from Analytics to 20 to avoid additional processing delays. Audiences shared to the Marketing Cloud from Analytics cannot exceed 20 million unique members. Also, due to caching, deleted report suites in Analytics require 12 hours before the deletion is shown in the Marketing Cloud.

Will A4T be implemented into Workspace in the future? When?
That is a roadmap question. I don't see a reason why not, but I'll need to double-check with the product team and get back to you.

I was able to follow up with our product team regarding your question. They indicated it will be included at some point, but they don't have a committed date yet. Watch the release notes and there should be a mention when it is released.

One more question - the script to stitch together the ids, the id in it is our internal id not the marketing cloud id, right?
The id's that gets stitched together is a temporary supplemental data id (sdid), not the Marketing Cloud ID or your internal ID.

The ID that gets stitched together with A4T, is neither the Marketing Cloud ID or your own internal id. It is a separate ID called the supplemental data ID. This ID is only used to match up the Target and Analytics hit when they are reunited at the Analytics data collection edge. The SDID will change on subsequent pages whereas your Marketing Cloud ID and Internal ID should not.

Is there any way for a Marketing Cloud Admin to get a report of last login dates for all users? It is important for us to be able to know who active users are to control access.
It would be great to be able to easily see a report of all users, which groups or product configurations that they are assigned to, and last login date.
Hi Max,
Currently, there isn't a way for admins to see things like last login or other user details associated with activity. You can request the feature via the ideas exchange.
Cheers,
Jantzen

Do you have server api for your ID service? We have data aggrigator (mParticle, Segment, etc) intergration, and it cannot generate the Marketing Cloud ID since it does not include the Adobe SDK/library on client side.
Hi Peter - There isn't currently a server-side API for the Marketing Cloud ID service. From what I've been told, there have been talks around it but nothing put on the roadmap yet. I'd suggest requesting the feature at the ideas exchange.
