I'd love to get an email notification if I schedule a report to an FTP location and it doesn't deliver. Having to manually check the interface and just seeing "Has Error" manually is annoying.

Re: User Agent as an out of the box value in SiteCatalyst, Discover, Insight cjohannessen - Adobe Analytics

This would help me assess Bots before I enable that in the SiteCat interface, since I could see the Bot user-agents in this report. I shouldn't have to open a ClientCare ticket to get a data feed to see Bots before I decide to enable Bots filtering in SiteCat on a report suite.

Relabel the Advanced Scheduler for Data Warehouse to just Advanced Delivery Options in SiteCatalyst cjohannessen - Adobe Analytics

Re-label the Advanced Scheduler for SiteCatalyst to just "Advanced Delivery Options" and not "Email Report (Advanced Delivery Options)" - it's confusing to newbies. Thanks.. J

Re: Make bot filter a report and/or a segment cjohannessen - Adobe Analytics

I agree. The SiteCat 15.3 update for this was way overdue (IMHO) to manage these things myself within the interface. I might even follow on with Kevin's idea here with a predictive analytics "what if" tool for this, so that someone with less time (or less skills) can model the effects of removing the bots themselves on the fly, on a per-bot segment basis (whether it's a search bot, or a page scraping bot, or those magical in-house monitoring IT bots that tend to get applied without letting the a...

Automatically display the number of a custom variable when it's enabled in SiteCatalyst, in the menu cjohannessen - Adobe Analytics

A best practice that I use, to make it easier for analysts to find reports related to custom variables (traffic \ conversion \ events \ hierarchies) is to put the # of the variable in front of the friendly name of the variable in the reporting interface. For example, if I have a traffic variable named "Sub Navigation" I'll set it up in the admin panel like this (theoretically as s.prop2 \ traffic 2): "2. Sub Navigation". If I enable a custom variable in the admin panel with a friendly name, it w...

Replicate iPhone best practices library to the Android, iPad, or Blackberry SDKs cjohannessen - Adobe Experience Cloud Mobile

Simple request: replicate the iPhone code best practices library: http://blogs.omniture.com/2011/11/03/ios-app-measurement-updates-for-ios-5-and-udid/ - to other mobile SDKs. Makes life a lot easier for my developers (and me ) Thanks ! - CJ

Alerts or Targets based off a combination of variables cjohannessen - Adobe Analytics

Similar to what I can do in a traditional business intelligence tool, I would like to be able to set an alert (or targe) based off a combination of variables.For example, set an alert to trigger an email if:1) s.prop1 is blank, and2) s.prop2 has a value, and3) s.prop3 has another value - or 1) s.prop1="blah"and2) s.prop2="ha ha"and3) s.prop3="wazzup"- or so on. Currently, the Alert (or Target) functionality in SiteCatalyst is limited to one variable at a time. Having such an ability would mitiga...

User Agent as an out of the box value in SiteCatalyst, Discover, Insight cjohannessen - Adobe Analytics

The User-agent string should be an out-of-the-box variable for both Traffic and Conversion (Commerce) use in SiteCatalyst \ DW, Discover or Insight (and be correlate-able or subrelate-able out-of-the-box as well). Separate from enabling faster deep tracking across platforms, the user-agent string is valuable for those of us who perioidically have to diagnose issues related to site monitoring tools to keep our data accurate. Having the user-agent out-of-the-box (vs. as a custom tag or a VISTA rul...

Move "Operating System" to the top of the Mobile reports cjohannessen - Adobe Analytics

I know I can do this with a Custom Menu. However, I am recommending that for out-the-box SiteCatalyst, that Operating System gets moved to the top of the Mobile reports list. Operating System is what gets all the press (and marketing attention) compared to any other Mobile report. - CJ

Re: Add OS version to the Mobile > Operating System report cjohannessen - Adobe Analytics

Perhaps create an "Operating System Version Report" to augment the top-level Operating System report...?

Re: User Management cjohannessen - Adobe Analytics

I agree on this one - furthermore, the email tool would save the emails somewhere so that users can look them up later (use case: emails about new reports, upgrades, training, etc.). The email groups would be based of the User Groups in the admin tool.

Additional data fields for Data Warehouse from the image request cjohannessen - Adobe Analytics

I periodically open Omniture ClientCare tickets - for troubleshooting purposes, or for specialty analyses - example being mobile or other devices via the user agent string - just to get 3 additional parameter values: r parameter (the actual "URL") timestamp user agent string I'd like those to be made in Data Warehouse, at least. Then I could pull the data myself without setting up a Data Feed (and opening a ticket, etc.). An additional nice to have - it would be great to somehow get the image re...

Admin Console Report Suite Settings - report download - make it more user friendly cjohannessen - Adobe Analytics

Currently, the Excel download of report suite settings in the admin tool, under report suites, is somewhat generic. I'd like to get it to output more like what you see when you actually go into the admin interface to change the settings, more user friendly in terms of report output. I'd also like to see the "friendly names" of the various props \ evars \ events in the report out (vs. just saying enabled), and I'd furthermore like to ensure all settings for the variables are shown (DUV \ WUV \ MU...

Re: In Site Catalyst Admin Interface, Show Which VISTAs Are Applied To Which Report Suites cjohannessen - Adobe Analytics

Agree with Dan on this - this should be some sort of admin console ability, to see if a report suite has a VISTA rule on it and the name of the rule. I'd follow on and add a "VISTA Rule Repository" similar to the Code Generator repository, whereby the details of the VISTA rule (which is usually a PDF of the business logic of the rule) could reside, making it easier to keep a record of VISTA rules within SiteCatalyst.

Re: Add Ability To Transfer Ownership Rights of Projects in Discover cjohannessen - Adobe Analytics

Agreed - anything you do in SiteCat like this (like migrating user rights to another user, for example) should carry over to Discover as well as Test+Target.

Dashboard Custom Reportlet with averages cjohannessen - Adobe Analytics

Hi, I was trying to create a dashboard reportlet for page views for the current month and another reportlet with the same page views for the last 3 months so that i can compare the two. However, it would be ideal for my comparison if i could get the average of the last 3 months or 6 months (based of requirements) instead of the total page views for the period mentioned. Thanks

Copy Custom Menus to a new suite created from an existing suite cjohannessen - Adobe Analytics

Simple recommendation: If I copy one suite to another, ALL the menu settings should copy over - including the Custom Reports menu button and its custom reports. Per ClientCare, Custom Reports have to manually be recreated in a new report suite that was created via copying from an existing suite.

Data Visualization library cjohannessen - Adobe Experience Cloud

I'd love to get, in SiteCatalyst 15+ (and perhaps related tools - Test+Target?) a full-fledged data visualization library to enable me to make "art out of data" so to speak. Adobe has a few of these, such as ILOG, and there's an open-source Flash data viz project called Flare - lots of ideas there to enable all sorts of out-of-the-box data visualization reporting metaphors, on top of the current graph + chart library of tools.

Re: Site Catalyst: A true events funnel, with dependency cjohannessen - Adobe Analytics

As part of this, I'd like to have more than the current number of events in the funnel. I'd love a full-fledged "funnel visualizer" with, potentially, twice as many as the current number of events.

Re: Latency Alerts cjohannessen - Adobe Analytics

An alert notification would be great !

Documentation Change notification subscription cjohannessen - Adobe Experience Cloud

I would like to be able to subscribe to a documentation notification change subscription service - selectable by product - so that I can get an email as to when there is a change or addtion to a manual, white paper, or KnowledgeBase article. So, for example, if a manual changes or if a new KB article appears I'd get an email. I'd be able to select daily, weekly or monthly as options as to when I'd receive the notification. Email would be one method; RSS might be another.

Re: Allow 'Week' in data warehouse to be linked to the custom calendar in Site Catalyst UI cjohannessen - Adobe Analytics

As part of this update, the Weekly granularity when doing Data Warehouse queries should actually show the week's date range, not "Week 1" or "Week 2" etc.

Re: Always record URL for pages cjohannessen - Adobe Analytics

As part of this, just make a new default variable, s.URL, that would appear with the Pages report as it's own report, but also be usable in subrelations as well as correlations. Such a variable would be helpful in troubleshooting data quality issues.

Optional meta data fields in the Report Suite Create interface, to help manage Billing chargebacks cjohannessen - Adobe Analytics

This is a feature that would be optimal for large enterprise customers (which I've been in the past), who have to do a lot of internal bill backs of Billing console data to various internal business units. I would like the option to have up to, say, 5 or 6 additional meta data fields (the ability to add 1, 2, 3, etc.) in the Report Suite create interface. The meta data fields could be populated with internal departments, stakeholders, etc. and then the data would flow into the Billing console re...

Short Links to Documentation cjohannessen - Adobe Experience Cloud

To make it easier to send around documentation - white papers, manuals, knowledgebase articles, etc. - please add a sharing "Short Link" functionality to, well, every bit of documentation in the web interface.Anything that helps with inbox overload is a good thing.It would also help for those of us with enterprise portals for digital analytics, to just be able to easily short link (or perma-link) to a document, so that people can ensure they have the latest version of a document at their finger-...
