Important notices for Analytics administrators

Notice Date Added or Updated Description
EOL of Full Processing Data Sources March 10, 2021 Adobe plans to deprecate full processing data sources in the future. As of March 25, 2021, new imports of this type can no longer be created. Please use Bulk Data Insertion API to import this type of data.
Reports & Analytics landing page options February 19, 2021 On March 25, 2021, options to set new Reports & Analytics dashboards or other content as your Adobe Analytics landing page will be removed. If you previously set a Reports & Analytics page as your custom landing page, it will continue to work until your landing page is modified in User Preferences. As of March 25, 2021, you can no longer define new Reports & Analytics custom landing pages.
EOL of Ad Hoc Analysis Jan. 2021 Ad Hoc Analysis reached its end-of-life date on March 1, 2021. For more information, visit Discover Workspace.
End-of-life for three Analytics API services January 6, 2021 On April 30, 2021, the following Analytics Legacy API services are slated to reach their end-of-life date and will be shut down. Any current integrations built using these services will stop working on that day.
  • 1.3 Analytics APIs
  • 1.4 SOAP Analytics APIs
  • Legacy OAuth Authentication (OAuth and JWT)
We have provided a Legacy API EOL FAQ to help answer your questions and provide guidance on how to proceed. API integrations that employ these services can migrate to the 1.4 Analytics REST APIs or the 2.0 Analytics APIs. Legacy OAuth accounts can migrate to an Adobe Developer Analytics integration account, which can be used to access both the 1.4 Analytics APIs and 2.0 Analytics APIs.
EOL of Adobe Data Connectors July 13, 2020 Adobe Data Connectors are powered by legacy technology that is no longer viable or supported. A new standard is available in the Adobe Exchange Partner Program. You can use that standard for any integration to continue to be offered and supported. The official end-of-life date is August 1, 2021. Learn more…
Adding HSTS header to all incoming HTTPS requests Sept. 29, 2020 On Sept. 29, 2020, Adobe started adding the HSTS header to all incoming requests that use HTTPS. This header instructs the browser or client to make all future requests in HTTPS, which is a considered a security best practice. At this point, Adobe will not enforce this for incoming requests using HTTP.
Change to Experience Cloud ID Service cookie setting Sept. 22, 2020 An update to the privacy settings for Chrome version 80 impacted the ability of Adobe Analytics to track some users viewing Google AMP pages. Specifically, it prevents cross-domain tracking of users viewing Google-hosted AMP pages. This could result in inflated counts of unique visitors. This fix allows users to address this problem by changing the settings for their ECID cookies.
Currently, Analytics sets Experience Cloud ID Service (ECID) cookies with the setting SameSite = Lax which, prior to version 80 of Chrome, allowed cross-domain tracking. This is no longer the case. This change allows users to update the SameSite setting for ECID cookies to None.
This change allows the Analytics cookie to be shared in more situations, but Analytics cookies do not contain sensitive information. In addition, when choosing this setting, cookies must be set to Secure so that data can be passed only via HTTPS connections. If you would like to make this change, a supported user can open a ticket with Customer Care.
