Features in Analysis Workspace

Following are some of the key features available in Analysis Workspace:

Panels

Panels are used to organize your analysis within a project and can contain many tables & visualizations. Many of the panels provided in Analysis Workspace generate a full set of analyses based on a few user inputs. On the far left rail, select the top Panels icon to see a full list of panels available.

To learn more about panels, see Panels overview.

Visualizations

Visualizations, such as a bar or line chart, can be used to visually bring data to life. On the far left rail, select the middle Visualizations icon to see the full list of visualizations available.

To learn more about visualizations, see Visualizations overview.

Components

Components in Analysis Workspace consist of the following:

  • Dimensions

  • Metrics

  • Segments

  • Date ranges

To learn more about each of these component types, see Components overview.

Each of these component types can be added to a visualization (such as a Freeform table) to start answering your business questions.

After you understand component terminology, you can drag components into visualizations (including Freeform tables) to build your analysis.

Data Dictionary

The Data Dictionary in Analysis Workspace helps both users and administrators keep track of and better understand the components in their Analytics environment.

To learn more about the Data Dictionary, see Data Dictionary overview.

Data Sources

Synchronizing visualizations lets you control which data table or data source corresponds to a visualization. Here is more information on how you can manage data sources.
