Adobe Analytics landing page

The landing page for Adobe Analytics brings together both Analysis Workspace and Reports & Analytics in a single interface and access point under the Workspace umbrella. It features a project manager home page, an updated reports menu, modernized reports, and a learning section to help you with getting started more effectively. Here is a video overview:

New landing page features

Project ID: The project ID can be used for debugging projects. Longest Date Range: Longer date ranges increase project complexity and may increase processing and load times. Number of Queries: The total number of requests made to Analytics when the project loads. A higher number of project queries increases project complexity and may increase processing and load times. This data is available only after a project has loaded or a scheduled project was sent.

Create Project modal is back	When you click Create Project in Workspace, you once again get the choice between a Blank project and a Blank mobile scorecard. You can also choose from any templates your company has created.
Also available in Customer Journey Analytics	This landing page, in a modified form, is also available in Customer Journey Analytics.

Top menu structure

• Top Analytics menu: Most reports are now in the Reports menu in the left rail.
• The left rail has three tabs: Projects, Reports, and Learning.

Terminology

• Projects are customized designs that combine data components, tables, and visualizations that you built or that someone else built and shared with you. Projects also refers to blank projects and blank mobile scorecards.
• Reports refers to anything that was pre-built by Adobe, such as reports in Reports & Analytics and templates in Workspace.
• Templates is no longer used as a term for Adobe’s pre-built Workspace projects. They are now under Reports. The term Templates is still used for templates your company created.

Navigate the Projects tab

Projects serves as the Workspace home page. The Projects tab displays the Company folder, any personal folders you created, your projects, and Mobile scorecards. Use this page to view, create, and modify folders, projects, and mobile scorecards. For more information, see About Folders in Analytics.

Favorites	Adds a star next to a favorite project or folder that can be used as a filter.
Name	Identifies the name of the project.
Pin icon	Pins items so they always appear at the top of your list but you can re-adjust the order by moving them up or down in the order. Use the ellipsis option menu and select Move Up or Move down in the list.
Info (i) icon	Displays the following information about a project: Type, Project Role, Owner, Description, and who it is shared with. It also indicates who can edit or duplicate this project.
Ellipsis (…)	Displays the project management actions you can perform: Delete, Share, Rename, Copy, Unpin, Move Up, Move Down, Tag, Approve, Export CSV, and Move to. You may not have permissions to perform all listed actions.

Project Role	Identifies the project roles: whether you are the project Owner and whether you have permissions to Edit or Duplicate the project.
Report Suite	Identifies the Report Suites that are associated with the project. Tables and visualizations within a panel derive data from the report suite selected in the top right of the panel. The report suite also determines what components are available in the left rail. Within a project, you can use one or many report suites depending on your analysis use cases. The list of report suites is sorted on relevance. Adobe defines relevance based on how recently and frequently the suite has been used by the current user, and how frequently the suite is used within the organization.
Owner	Identifies the person who created the project.
Last opened	Identifies the date you last opened the project.
Customize table icon	Selects which columns to view in the table. To add or remove columns from the list of projects, click the column icon ( ) in the top-right, then select or deselect column titles.
SHOW: Folders & Projects or All Projects	Changes the view setting on the table to show folders and projects according to your folder organization or show all of your projects in an unorganized list.
< (Back button)	Returns you to your most recent landing page configuration in a Workspace project or a report. The page configuration you had when you left the landing page will persist when you return.

Deprecation of the Project Manager Page

With the release of the new landing page, we deprecated Project Manager as listed under the Components manager. The new landing page handles all of the functionality of the old Project Manager page and more.

One common use case for the Project Manager page was to view all your projects.

To view all of your projects on the new landing page by using the filter rail, select OTHER FILTERS and then select Show all.

If you’re in the “Folders & Projects” view, a modal will pop-up asking if you want to switch to the “All projects” view which makes it easier to view all of your projects outside of any folders that they may be organized in. Select Switch to “All projects” view to better view all of the projects you have access to.

Another use case for Admins is to manage company reports in order to delete, rename, tag, or approve reports. For information about managing reports, see Managing company reports.

Navigate the Reports tab

The Reports tab consolidates the following sets of reports:

• The pre-built Workspace templates that were previously located under Workspace > Project > New. Adobe no longer uses the word “template” in this context.
• Most of the pre-built reports under the previous Adobe Analytics Reports top menu. These reports are now displayed in Analysis Workspace.

1. Go to the Reports tab.

2. Use the search field to search for a specific report.

View and save a report

If you navigate away from a report after making changes, you are prompted to save or discard your changes. Saving changes to a report saves the report as a new project.

1. Go to the Reports tab.

2. Select the report you want to view. For example, under Most popular, select the Pages report.

   

3. The Pages report, as displayed in Analysis Workspace, shows two visualizations (Bar chart and Summary number) and a Freeform table. The metric used is Occurrences.

4. Do any of the following:

   • View the report.
   • Drag one or more segments into the Segment drop zone at the top. For example, drag the segment Mobile Customers and view the results.
   • Change the date range by going to the calendar at the top-right.
   • Add dimension breakdowns, drag in other metrics, and generally customize the report to suit your needs.

5. (Optional) Save the report as a project by selecting Project > Save.

   This saves the report as a new project; it does not modify the existing report. For more information about saving a report as a project, see “Create a project from a blank project or a report” in Create projects.

Create a custom company report

Custom reports created and saved for others in your login company to use, are called company reports. Previously created company reports and newly created company reports are listed in the Create Project modal as shown below.

To create a new Company report:

1. Build a project in Analysis Workspace to your desired state.

2. Select Project > Save as company report….

   

3. Update the name of the report, add a description, and add any tags, then select Save as company report.

   The report is added to the Company Reports list in the Create Project modal and is available to users in your login company.

   For more information about how users can create a project based on a company report, see “Create a project from a blank project or a report” in Create projects.

More learning options:
