Workspace Line visualization: Moving average trendline option
October 8, 2020
Moving average has been added to Line visualization trendline settings. Also known as a rolling average, a moving average uses a specific number of data points (determined by a Periods selection), averages them, and uses the average as a point in the line. Learn more
Data Repair API
October 8, 2020
The Data Repair API is a tool to delete data from Analytics report suites. The October release includes the ability to delete specified eVars, props, and Activity Map variables for a specified date range. Additional functionality will be released in the future. Use of the Data Repair API permanently deletes existing Adobe Analytics data. We recommend a careful approach to executing the repair to minimize accidental deletion. Access to the Data Repair API requires a contract - reach out to your account team for more details. Learn more

Enhancements to Analytics dashboards UI
October 23, 2020
When building a mobile scorecard in Workspace, the styling of the scorecard now matches the app.

Fixes

  • Fixed an issue with breakdowns involving classifications that wouldn’t work if the metric had an allocation model. This applied to a situation where the report suite was migrated to the latest Classifications architecture. (AN-230364)
  • Fixed an issue with the segment UI breaking after pasting values into a container. (AN-233998)
  • Fixed an issue with the Data Feeds job history missing some hourly data. (AN-231776)
  • Fixed an issue that occurred when copying calculated metrics. It resulted in the error message “You are not authorized to access this metric”. (AN-238070)
  • Fixed an issue with being unable to set proper alignment on the Text visualization in Workspace. (AN-238188)

Description
Adding HSTS header to all incoming HTTPS requests
Sept. 29, 2020
On Sept. 29, 2020, we started adding the HSTS header to all incoming requests that use HTTPS. This instructs the browser/client to make all future requests in HTTPS, which is a considered a security best practice. At this point, we 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.
Note that this 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, please have a supported user open a ticket with Customer Care.
Migration from omniture.com to adobe.com domain
Aug. 21, 2020
On August 13, 2020, Adobe Analytics migrated its frontend architecture from `omniture.com
Update on Ad Hoc Analysis Java 8 compatibility
Aug. 21, 2020

EOL of Adobe Data Connectors
July 13, 2020
Adobe Data Connectors are powered by legacy technology that is no longer viable or supported. We have a new standard in the Adobe Exchange Partner Program that should be adopted for any integrations that wish to continue to be offered and supported. The official end-of-life date is still to be determined, but we anticipate it to be in the next 12-18 months (mid 2021 to end of 2021). Learn more…

Change to how Entries/Exits are calculated in Workspace
April 7, 2020
In Analysis Workspace, as of March 2020, we have changed how the None value interacts with Entries/Exits. Because you can now turn Nones on and off in Analysis Workspace, we apply the None value after the entry or exit, whereas (for eVars) it used to be applied before entry or exit. For example, assume that the first hit of a visit has no value for eVars, but the second hit does. In Reports & Analytics the first hit will show as Unspecified for the Entry, but in Analysis Workspace it will show up as the value on the second hit.

For example, assume that the first hit of a visit has no value for eVars, but the second hit does. In Reports & Analytics the first hit will show as Unspecified for the Entry, but in Analysis Workspace it will show up as the value on the second hit.

Adobe Analytics fixes

  • Adobe changed the Time Spent metric to never include “Unspecified” in the calculation. This means that, regardless of whether the UI says to include “Unspecified”, we make a special exception to always exclude “Unspecified” in the Time Spent calculation. Therefore, even if you configured a report containing the Time Spent metric to include “Unspecified”, it will always return 0 time spent for the “Unspecified” line item. Note that this may change historical reporting in Reports & Analytics as well as the Reporting API v1.4. (AN-197958)

Description
Change to how Entries/Exits are calculated in Workspace
April 7, 2020
In Analysis Workspace, as of March 2020, we have changed how the None value interacts with Entries/Exits. Because you can now turn Nones on and off in Analysis Workspace, we apply the None value after the entry or exit, whereas (for eVars) it used to be applied before. For example, assume the first hit of a visit has no value for eVars, but the second hit does. In Reports & Analytics it will show up as Unspecified for the Entry, but in Analysis Workspace it will show up as the value on the second hit.
EOL of Conversion Level setting
March 3, 2020
The non-functioning Conversion Level setting in Admin Tools > Report Suites > General Account Settings will be removed from the interface on March 12, 2020.
EOL of Dashboard Archive
March 27, 2020
The View Archive setting under Manage Dashboards in Reports & Analytics will no longer be available as of October 2020.
End of Support for TLS 1.1

By March 31, 2020, Adobe Analytics will remove support for TLS 1.1. This change is part of our ongoing efforts to maintain the highest security standards and promote the safety of customer data.
New Adobe Analytics domain
Dec. 18, 2019

On January 16, 2020, Adobe Analytics began moving to a new domain - https://experience.adobe.com/analytics.
Note: This change applies to all users accessing Analytics with their Adobe ID or Enterprise ID.

  • The domain change may cause cookie issues when loading Analytics in Safari. Deselecting Prevent cross-site tracking in the Safari Privacy Preferences enables cookies across domains (and all cross-site experiences), and allows Analytics to function on this new Adobe Experience Cloud domain. You can use other browsers without issue because this affects only Safari users.
  • The domain change may cause Activity Map to stop working for some customers in specific cases.
End of Life - Analytics Legacy APIs
January 9, 2020

In November 2020, the following Analytics Legacy API services will reach their end-of-life and will be shutdown. Current integrations built using these services will stop working.

  • 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 account, which can be used to access both the 1.4 Analytics APIs and 2.0 Analytics APIs.

Feature
Description
Analysis Workspace – Freeform Table Builder

With Table Builder enabled, you can drag and drop in many dimensions, breakdowns, metrics and segments to build tables that answer more complex business questions. Data will not update immediately. Instead, updates occur after you select Build, saving you time once you know what table you want to construct. Additionally, this feature offers:

  • Preview: You can preview the format of a table before spending time to render real data.
  • Flexible Row and breakdown settings: You can set your row and breakdown levels for every dimension row. Previously, Workspace imposed defaults that could not be changed until after the data was returned.
  • Breakdown by position: You can set dimension rows to always breakdown by position instead of by specific item (the default).
  • Manual static row ordering: You can manually order static rows so that the table rows are displayed exactly as you need them. Previously, static rows could be sorted only by a metric column or alphabetically.

Associated documentation will be published when this feature releases later in January.

New Identified State dimension for Cross-Device Analytics (CDA)
We are adding a new dimension called Identified State to CDA virtual report suites. The dimension has two possible values, Identified and Unidentified. Identified means that the person has been identified by the device graph. Unidentified means that the person has not been identified by the device graph.
This means that CDA users can now create calculated metrics, such as Device Graph Coverage, which describes how many of the people within the virtual report suite are known by the device graph. This metric is helpful for troubleshooting CDA compression rates. If few people are identified, the level of stitching will be low.
Virtual report suite Support in Data Warehouse API
Virtual report suites will now be available for use via the Data Warehouse API. Previously, they were only available via the Data Warehouse UI. When using the Data Warehouse API, you can now see and query virtual report suites, but only if the segments applied to a virtual report suite are compatible with Data Warehouse.
Privacy Service API: CCPA
The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) enhances privacy rights and consumer protection for residents of California, United States. This Act became effective on January 1, 2020.

The CCPA provides new data privacy rights to California residents, such as the right to access and delete their personal data, to know whether their personal data is sold or disclosed (and to whom), and to refuse the sale of their personal data.

The Privacy Service supports requests to opt out from the selling of personal data.

The Privacy Service was formerly the GDPR Service and retains all the previous functionality, now extended to support CCPA.
