Read-only permission for the Adobe Analytics MCP server
Administrators can now give users read-only access to the Adobe Analytics MCP server. The new MCP Read Only permission item gives users access to all read-only tools, without letting them create projects, segments, or calculated metrics.

The existing MCP Access permission item is renamed to MCP Full Access. Users with this permission keep access to all tools, including tools that create, change, or delete components.

For more information, see Adobe Analytics MCP server.

Automatically generate component descriptions
You can now automatically generate descriptions for dimensions, metrics, calculated metrics, segments, and date ranges. This helps Workspace users understand which components to use, especially in organizations with large component libraries.

You can generate a description for a single component, or generate descriptions for many components at the same time.

End-of-life (EOL) notices eol

EOL Product or Feature
Date added or updated
Description
Legacy Report Builder
June 18, 2025
The legacy Report Builder add-in was retired in June 2026. All users should begin upgrading their legacy workbooks to the new Report Builder. The new Report Builder is available to both Adobe Analytics and Customer Journey Analytics customers. It has near feature parity plus many new convenient features and UI enhancements. To facilitate the upgrade process, the new Report Builder includes an easy workbook conversion feature. The new Report Builder is only available as an add-in through the Microsoft Store. Many organizations require an internal approval process before the add-in can be made available to users. Please allow time for this process and begin working with your organization now to ensure enough time to upgrade your workbooks prior to the EOL date.
Adobe Analytics API (version 1.4)
July 17, 2024

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.

General Availability

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.
