I had a similar situation last year in which there was a wholesale
change in implementation. Ultimately, most of the comparisons had to be
done outside of Adobe Analytics. The primary reason for this is that
stakeholders didn't want to look at different dashboards or different
panels within the same dashboards in order to draw conclusions. We
export key data points from Adobe Analytics into a data mart, and were
able to do some SQL magic to make our Tableau visualizations look
continuous. The be...
Description -At this time there is no way to cancel an Analysis
Workspace project exit without discarding all changes or saving the
project. If you hit the back button on your browser, click on any
navigation options in the top level navigation, or accidentally press
the back button on your mouse, you are shown the message in the
screenshot below. Unless you click "Save", even if you don't actually
want to save your project for future use, you will lose all of your
work.Why is this feature impor...
Description -One feature of the Segment Builder is the ability to use
existing segments when building out a new segment. I'll refer to this as
a "reference segment".Once the reference segment is dragged into the
Segment Builder it becomes "disconnected", and is more like a snapshot
of what the reference segment looked like at the time. If an update is
made to the reference segment this will not be reflected in any other
segments that use it. It would be nice to have an option to "anchor" the
ref...
Definitely sounds like something that classification rule builder would
work well for. I am also unsure about the "metrics" part. He should be
able to use most metrics with the classifications, but "grams" won't be
treated as a number.
Think of the Entries metric as a subset of the Visits metric. Many pages
may be associated with a single visit, but only one page is the first
page viewed (i.e. the entry). When applying Visits or Entries to a
dimension, such as Page Name, you should always see Visits >= Entries.
It's an older site, but perhaps
https://www.metamodpro.com/browser-language-codes can give you an idea.
There is the base language (e.g. Dutch, or "nl") and the qualifier (e.g.
"-be" for Belgium).
There won't be a specific user-agent string to look for, but you could
try to detect things like images being disabled or high contrast mode
being enabled via JavaScript. Check out

Initially, I was seeing Segment C > Segment A + Segment B. I went back
to the project the next day, and Segment C < Segment A + Segment B. I
can't explain why this happened, but am glad that this resolved itself.
I've tried Segment C as both a visit container with the Segment A and
Segment B hit containers inside (using OR), as well as a hit container
with the Segment A and Segment B hit containers inside (using OR). The
visit container approach results in a slightly greater visit count.
Hoping the community can help me out with a segment that I'm trying to
build. I have two segments, Segment A and Segment B. These segments use
hit containers. When I create a third segment, Segment C, that says
"either Segment A or Segment B" and apply all segments to the visits
metric, the number that appears for Segment C is greater than the sum of
Segments A and B. This shouldn't be possible. Any ideas as to what is
going on? EDIT: Both Segment A and Segment B use hit containers, and
both req...
This will work as long as you leave the "Include Unspecified (None)"
option checked in the Analysis Workspace table. If you uncheck it and
the eVar is not set on every call (i.e. there isn't a value set in 100%
of visits) then the Total and Grand Total values will be different.
Adobe uses the "Total" as the denominator rather than the Grand Total,
so you'll wind up only comparing an eVar value to the total visits with
the eVar value.
If you are building this in Analysis Workspace, by default metrics
included in a Table show both numbers and percentages. If you hide the
Unspecified value, the percentages appear should show you the Percentage
of visits with this error. What it won't do, however, is show this in a
different column. If you want a separate column called "Percentage of
visits with this error", you could create a calculated metric that only
includes visits and is called "Percentage of visits with this error".

While I agree that Ad Hoc is superior to Analysis Workspace when it
comes to speed and certain functionality, you'll need to plan to not be
able to use it anymore. It's EOL is March 2021. Some Ad Hoc
functionality, such as being able to export large numbers of rows, has
recently been added to Analysis Workspace.
You're going to have to head to Stack Overflow for this. You're going to
have to sift through everything that happens in the console when an
auto-translator is used, and this is going to vary between browsers. I
recommend
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62998768/detecting-auto-translation-event-in-microsoft-edge
as a jumping off point.
Unfortunately I cannot provide the actual key values, but "Widget
Makers, Inc." is a made-up value that has a similar format (i.e. commas
and periods) that is currently not working in the classification file
uploads. Nothing has been altered in the first four header rows of the
classification template, and v:2.1 was the default version value. Note
that the values being used to classify the key do not contain any
special characters.
I am having trouble classifying keys for an s.eVar that contain special
characters. For example, a key may look like this: Widget Makers, Inc.
I've made sure that the classification template file uses "v:2.1" and
not "v:2.0", as indicated in
https://docs.adobe.com/content/help/en/analytics/components/classifications/faq.html,
but still get a message that the classifications are not uploaded. I've
tried placing quotation marks around the keys, but this also has had no
effect. Any suggestions from...
While that is a possibility, stakeholders received scheduled reports
(PDFs) with the graphs also empty. That is unlikely to be caused by a
browser extension.
Most of the line graphs in my Analysis Workspace projects are now blank,
though the underlying data is there and tables don't seem to be
impacted. Refreshing the project doesn't fix this issue. Has anyone else
experienced this? I'd like to know if this is a known issue that Adobe
is working on fixing, or if this is outside of Adobe's control and I
need to update hundreds of charts.
The recent Adobe Analytics UI update changed how the site navigation
menu options function. Previously, clicking on a menu category (e.g.
Tools) would direct you to a page showing all items available in that
menu, and hovering your mouse over the menu category would results in a
list of options being displayed. Now clicking on the menu item opens the
list, but does not take you to the category main page. This adjustment
hasn't negatively impacted my experience with the site. The change that
has ...
That's an interesting approach. I had already created classifications
for price groupings (e.g. $250, $500, etc. increments), and with prices
up to $100,000 I may increased create these calculated metrics by group.
Not quite the ideal, but it's worth experimenting with. Hopefully Adobe
figures out a replacement for numeric classifications.
My client captures price in an s.eVar, and I am trying to figure out if
there is a way to use the captured value in mathematical operations
within Adobe Analytics. I can export the data and treat the text string
as a number using Python or other programming approaches, but would like
to be able to handle this within Adobe because I could include
calculations in Workspace. Since numeric classifications have been
removed, I'm not sure if what I want is even possible. Does anyone have
a recommendat...
I'm running into the same issue, and I have all admin permissions. It is
possible that this is an issue with the latest release of Report
Builder, as another computer I have is running an older version of
Report Builder and isn't having any problems.
Have you created classifications for the Product variable? I've found
that this has been a big help when it comes to handling dimensions with
a ton of values, such as Campaigns. For example, let's say that the 300
products you referred to are "T-shirts". You could create a
classification called "Product Category", and use "T-shirts" as one of
the values when you upload the classifications. This will allow you to
create a segment that will limit the Analysis Workspace table to only
show "T-shirts...
One way to pass visitor IDs between properties is appendVisitorIDsTo
(https://docs.adobe.com/content/help/en/id-service/using/id-service-api/methods/appendvisitorid.html).
Note that you can either store this in a variable (e.g. an s.eVar), or
could try to set the ID being passed as the ID for the second
application.
Has anyone else run into problems with the "Verify Your Identity"
feature when trying to log into Ad Hoc? I've cleared all temporary files
from Java, but for some reason Adobe won't accept the verification code
that they send to my phone/email. As soon as the last digit of the six
digit code has been typed in, the numbers all reset. I've put in a
support ticket, but they weren't able to figure it out. Hoping that
someone from the forums has a solution.
Anyone else not seeing Traffic (i.e. s.prop) classifications appearing
in Analysis Workspace? I see Custom Conversion (i.e. s.eVar) ones for
our different variables, but for some reason s.prop ones don't show up
as an option. We created the classifications several days ago, and the
s.prop has values. Edit: the s.prop classifications appear in Ad Hoc,
just not Analysis Workspace. All product permissions have been granted,
and I have full admin rights.
I think that this checkbox has more to do with making the segment
available to other products in the Experience Cloud (e.g. Target), and
less to do with the segment being made available in other report suites.
To share segments to a wider audience, you'll need to go to Components >
Segments, select one or more segments via the checkbox, click the
"Share" icon at the top of the page, and then choose the
individuals/groups/all option. I did not receive an email about a 75
segment limit, and don't ...
The main issue is that Date Ranges use today's date as the end date. For
example, I have segments for "Last week", "Last month", and "Last Year".
Because these are built in Date Ranges, the end is always today. If I
change the panel date range from the default (This month) to December
2019, applying the aforementioned date segments doesn't shift everything
back a month. What probably needs to happen is Adobe would need to add a
relative option to the Date Range Builder interface. Currently, you ...
My understanding is that "current" will always refer to the day, week,
month, quarter, year associated with today's date. This means that it
will likely be impossible to allow a user to select a date and then have
all the comparison data update to be relative to that selected date.
It's a bummer for sure, and I've wound up creating reports in Tableau to
allow for choose-your-own-adventure date range comparisons.
