Share projects

You can share an Analysis Workspace project with the following types of people:

• Users and groups in your organization who have access to Adobe Analytics

  You can share Edit, Duplicate, or View access

• Users and groups in your organization who don’t have access to Adobe Analytics

  Recipients have read-only access

• People outside your organization

  Recipients have read-only access

Any curation you apply prior to sharing is reflected when recipients open the project.

Here is a video overview of project sharing:

Share with Analysis Workspace users and groups in your organization

You can share a project with existing Analysis Workspace users or groups in your organization. When you share a project as described in this section, the users you share with must already have access to Adobe Analytics.

You can share a specific role with users or groups, or you can share a link.

• Share a specific project role

• Share a link to a project

Share a specific project role

When sharing a specific project role with users and groups in your organization, consider the following:

• Project roles (Can edit, Can duplicate, and Can view) are tied to the user and specific project ID. Project roles are independent of user permissions managed in the Adobe Experience Cloud admin console.

• In Adobe Analytics, groups are defined by product profiles in the Adobe Experience Cloud admin console. Admins can share to any group, including “All.” Non-admins can share to any group they are a member of, with the exception of “All.”

• A user who is placed in multiple roles always get the highest experience. This might occur if a user is added both as an individual and as part of a group. For example, if a user is given the Can edit role as an individual and the Can view role as a member of a group, they will receive a Can edit project experience.

• Admins placed in the Can duplicate or Can view role receive those limited experiences when they open a project. If desired, an Admin can increase their role to Can edit at anytime through Components > Projects.

To share a specific project role with users or groups in your organization:

1. Go to the project that you want to share, then click Share > Share with Workspace users.
   If there are unsaved changes, you are prompted to save your project first.

   

   For information about how to share multiple projects simultaneously, see Share projects in the Project manager.

2. Add recipients or groups of recipients in one of the provided role fields:

   Can edit: Recipients can Save changes to a project and function as co-owners. This role is useful if you want to co-manage a project with other colleagues; this includes editing, deleting, and modifying recipient lists for a shared project.
   Note: Analysis Workspace does not currently support live collaboration, so it is recommended that only one user edit a project at a given time. If projects are saved at the same time, the last version will be kept.

   Can duplicate: Recipients can Save as and have access to the left rail. Project interactions are not limited in this role. This role is useful if you want to share a project to users who understand your organization’s data and how to use Analysis Workspace, but you do not want your project altered.

   Can view: Recipients cannot Save or Save as and do not have access to the left rail. Project interactions are also limited. This role is useful if you want to share a project to users that are less familiar with your organization’s data structure, Analysis Workspace or Adobe Analytics generally. However, you still want them to consume data and insights in a safe environment. Learn more about the Can view project experience.

3. Choose whether to enable the following options when sharing the project:

   • Share embedded project components: Shares segments, calculated metrics, and date ranges with all recipients. After being shared, these components will appear in the Components drop-down of the recipient’s Workspace. This setting does not persist - it is a one-time action at the time of sharing.

   • Set as landing page for recipients: Sets this page as the landing page for recipients. This setting does not persist - it is a one-time action at the time of sharing.

4. Click Share. (If the project has already been shared, click Update.)

   Or

   Click Curate and Share to apply project curation automatically. (If the project has already been shared, click Curate & Update.) Learn more about project curation.

Share a link to a project

When sharing a link as described in this section, consider the following:

• Recipients who use the link are required to log in to Adobe Analytics before gaining access to the project.

• If a recipient is not assigned a role and receives a link to the project (Share > Get project link), they are given a role by default. Admins receive Can edit and Non-admins receive Can duplicate.

To share the project link with users in your organization:

1. Click Share > Share with Workspace users.
   If there are unsaved changes, you are prompted to save your project first.

   

2. Click Copy next to the Share by link field.

3. Share the link with users in your organization. For example, you can paste it into an email, onto an internal website, and so forth.

Share a project with anyone (no login required)

You can grant read-only access to Analysis Workspace projects to people who don’t have access to Adobe Analytics. This can include:

• People outside your organization

• People within your organization who are not provisioned with Adobe Analytics

To share an Analysis Workspace project with people who don’t have access to Adobe Analytics:

1. Open the Analysis Workspace project that you want to share.

2. Click Share > Share with anyone.

   If there are unsaved changes, you are prompted to save your project.

3. Enable the Link is active option if it is not already enabled.

4. Choose whether to enable the following security option (this option can be controlled by your Analytics administrator):

   • Require Experience Cloud authentication:

     When this option is enabled, only users who can log in to the Adobe Experience Cloud organization where the project that you are sharing was created can access the project.

     Analytics administrators can configure this preference for the company, as described in Preferences. You might encounter the following scenarios, depending on how the administrator configured this option:

     • If this option is not visible, your Analytics administrator did not enable this feature.

     • If this option is enabled and dimmed, your Analytics administrator requires Experience Cloud authentication for anyone accessing Analysis Workspace projects.

5. Next to the Share with anyone (no login required) field, click the Copy link icon to copy the link to your system clipboard.

6. Share the link with the people you want to have access to the project. For example, you can paste the link in an email.

   Any person you share the link with can view the Analysis Workspace project.

7. (Optional) You can click the Generate new link icon to remove access from users who previously received a link to the project. A new link is generated that you can share with users who you want to access the project.

8. Select Close to close the share dialog box. Your changes are automatically saved.

Share projects in the Project manager

Projects can also be shared from Components > Projects. A single project can be shared following the same steps above. If multiple projects are selected to be shared, recipients will be added to the existing list of recipients for each project.

For example:

• Project A is shared to recipients 1, 2, 3
• Project B is shared to recipients 4, 5, 6

With Project A and B selected, recipients 4 and 7 are added to the share lists. The new share list for each project is now:

• Project A: 1, 2, 3, 4, 7
• Project B: 4, 5, 6, 7
