Current Adobe Analytics release notes (September 2026)
Last update: September 9, 2026
These release notes cover the September 2026 release period. Adobe Analytics releases operate on a continuous delivery model, which allows for a more scalable, phased approach to feature deployment. Accordingly, these release notes are updated several times a month. Please check them regularly.
New features or enhancements features
Limit segments to the reporting date range
Data in a Workspace report can extend beyond the reporting date range when a segment includes date range components.
A new option is now available that allows you to limit results to the reporting date range regardless of any date components included in the segment.
This option is available when creating or modifying a segment whose top-level container is Visitor.
For more information, see Build segments.
Bot detection updates
When using Edge Data Collection with the Web SDK, the following bot detection updates are available:
- You can now create bot detection rules to identify exceptions in traffic that would otherwise be treated as bot-generated. Existing and future rules will continue to default to marking matching traffic as bot-generated.
- Custom bot rules now run before IAB bot detection rules. This change does not affect bot scores, but the bot rule names associated with an event may change.
Note: This update applies only to Edge Data Collection implementations that use the Web SDK. It does not apply to older libraries such as AppMeasurement.
(Documentation link to follow.)
Classification sets API updates
The Classification sets API documentation now includes updated endpoint and parameter information for configuring Classification sets API requests.
For more information, see the Classifications endpoint guide.
Date itemId encoding guidance in the 2.0 API report guides
The Adobe Analytics 2.0 API date-trended report guides now include new sections explaining how date itemId parameters and values are encoded. This can help you configure and migrate to 2.0 API services from the now-deprecated 1.4 APIs.
For more information, see the KPI report guide and the Advanced report guide.

End-of-life (EOL) notices eol
On August 31, 2026, the following Analytics Legacy API services reached their end of life and were shut down, and any integrations built using these services no longer function:
- Adobe Analytics API (version 1.4)
- Adobe Analytics WSSE Authentication
Integrations that use the Adobe Analytics API (version 1.4) must migrate to the Adobe Analytics 2.0 API, while WSSE integrations must migrate to an OAuth-based authentication protocol in the Adobe Developer Console.
See the Adobe Analytics 1.4 API EOL FAQ for answers to common questions and further guidance.
AppMeasurement
For the latest updates on AppMeasurement releases, please refer to AppMeasurement release notes.
Postponed features
Streaming media services: Support schedule data
You can now upload scheduled data of past live Streaming Media content to more easily and accurately track viewership.
The following are examples of live content that are supported with schedule data upload:
- FAST (Free Ad Supported TV) platforms
- Local streams
- Live sports
Uploading schedule data allows you to track viewership data for individual programs that ran during the time you designate in the upload file. You can even gather viewership data for specific topics or program segments.
These capabilities are available regardless of how you implemented Streaming Media Collection.
Previously, it was difficult to accurately tie a given session to specific programs when analyzing live content, and it wasn’t possible to tie a given session to individual topics or program segments.
For more information, see Upload schedule data to track live content.
