Real-Time reporting in Workspace?

First I had to find it; seems like the documentation could be updated … Real-Time is not listed under Reports > Site Metrics, as they say here:

https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/analytics/components/real-time-reporting/realtime.html?lang=en

I found it under Admin as described here:

https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/analytics/admin/admin-tools/manage-report-suites/edit-report-suite/real-time-reports/t-realtime-admin.html?lang=en

After turning it on, it’s still not listed in Reports > Site Metrics, but I found it on the Workspace tab, on the left rail, under Reports > Engagement.

The Real-Time report doesn’t have a sharing option like on other Workspace projects; is it just the same report for everyone? (well, up to 3, haven’t set up the others yet).

Other Reports have a "Try in Workspace" button, not this one. But the Reports view is going away at the end of the year, so we need a Workspace project, yes? Is there currently a Workspace version available, which I just can’t find, or will there be one after Dec 2023?

Hi @davidlu17 ,

Real Time Reports should be there, either through the "Reports" area in the Workspace left menu:

 

Or through the old Report interface (at least until December):

 

If you aren't seeing it there, then it's possible that Real Time reports (themselves) have been deactivated in your Admin Console settings (we're checking that now)

 

The Real Time Reports you found in Admin:



 Is the configuration of the reports, and being able to enable them... but enabled, and having permissions to view the see them are different...

So as an admin, you will have access to enable.. but if you don't have the access in Admin Console for your account you may still be stuck

Hi @davidlu17, per @jennifer_dungan's comments, you may need to speak with your Admin about your permissions.  This is what they would need to enable:

Just letting people know, that because of the banner mislabeling  (i.e. starting at (9 pt instead of 8pt) we are still here, so if you have questions... keep them coming!

User pszew93 asked the following:

 

Hello,

 

I am currently working on a dashboard that has aggregated multiple Target Activity > Experience tests. For this exercise, I created a segment that aggregated all the control groups across the test and I also created a group for all the exposed audiences. (I know this is not the best practice, but the client wants an aggregated dashboard).

 

After I created these groups, I noticed something off, when I put these segments into a freeform and then add Target Activity > Experience as a subgroup, I am noticing Test Activity > Experience line items that were not included in the segment. Does anyone know what the issue may be and how to fix it?

Hi @pszew93,

 

This is a great question and a problem that has caught me as well. 

 

Target experiences persist, so a user may qualify for multiple experiences. If you create a segment looking for users that are in Activity 1 and then filter for all Target experiences, you should see all other qualified activates.  

 

As for fixing it, the best way that I know is to use a filter for your subgroup.

 

 

Thanks!

Shari

User ehossinger asked the following:

I need to focus on Exit Link for some Data Repair API requests. Adobe Documentation suggests "pageeventvar2"  to reference the Download link, Exit link, or Custom link dimension (see below). However how do I specifically focus on Exit Link?

pageeventvar2 works together with pageeventvar1 (which is the link type).

 

There are three types of links in Adobe:

  • Other / lnk_o - this is your custom links
  • Exit / lnk_e - this is your exit links
  • Downloads / lnk_d - this is your download links (based on specific file extensions)

 

By using these two fields together you should be able to isolate just Exit links.

Good morning! I see I'm late but in case you're still around, I'm copying below a question that I just posted:

 

Hello,

 

My team recently enabled eVars that track cookie opt-in/out information for three cookie categories. For each of these, if a visitor opts out of a category and then opts in, we'd like to be able to segment visitors by their most recent selection. Do you know how to build a segment based off visitors' most recently defined eVar value?

 

Thank you,

Ben
