NOTE
When you create an Analytics source dataflow in a production sandbox, two dataflows are created:
  • A dataflow that does a 13-month backfill of historical report suite data into data lake. This dataflow ends when the backfill is complete.
  • A dataflow flow which sends live data to data lake and to Real-Time Customer Profile. This dataflow runs continuously.

In the Experience Platform UI, select Sources from the left navigation to access the the Sources workspace. In the Adobe applications category, select the Adobe Analytics card and then select Add data.

The sources catalog with the Adobe Analytics source card selected.

Select data

IMPORTANT
  • The report suites listed on the screen may come from various regions. You are responsible for understanding the limitations and obligations of your data and how you use that data in Adobe Experience Platform cross regions. Please ensure this is permitted by your company.
  • Data from multiple report suites can be enabled for Real-Time Customer Profile only if there are no data conflicts, such as two custom properties (eVars, lists and props) that have different meaning.

A report suite is a container of data that forms the basis of Analytics reporting. An organization can have many report suites, each containing different datasets.

You can ingest report suites from any region (United States, United Kingdom, or Singapore) as long as they are mapped to the same organization as the Experience Platform sandbox instance in which the source connection is being created in. A report suite can be ingested using only a single active dataflow. If a report suite is grey and cannot be selected, then it has already been ingested, either in the sandbox that you are using or in a different sandbox.

Multiple in-bound connections can be made to bring multiple report suites into the same sandbox. If the report suites have differing schemas for variables (such as eVars or events), they should be mapped to specific fields in the custom field groups and avoid data conflicts using Data Prep. Report suites can only be added to a single sandbox.

Select Report suite and then use the Analytics source add data interface to navigate through the list and identify the Analytics report suite that you want to ingest to Experience Platform. Select Next to proceed.

An analytics report suite is selected for ingestion and the "Next" button is highlighted
