Adobe Analytics

Random Friday question, when users use Chat GPT / Bard and found some answers through these AI tools, how to you track these web traffic / interactions in Adobe Analytics?     I presume we can only see web traffic unless they click on the sources and land on your website, correct?    

We’re a parent company with a user-facing website that our subsidiaries use. Many of them are retiring their external websites and redirecting traffic to dedicated landing pages on our main site via 301 redirects.To prevent this redirected traffic from inflating our core site metrics, we want to exclude views, sessions, and people associated with the initial landing page hit — but still include any downstream engagement from users who continue navigating further into the site. In the Segment Builder, I’m using an Event-level segment to accomplish this. See the attached screenshot:Based on my validation in the table below:4 of the 6 metrics (page views and conversion metrics) line up exactly between the segment and my manual calculationsBut Sessions and People are showing ~4% higher in the segment than expectedIs this discrepancy expected behavior? Or is there a better way to exclude redirected landing page metrics without losing downstream metrics?I appreciate any i

I was attempting to update my legacy Report Builder workbooks to the newer version of Report Builder. However, I've come across what I think is a huge miss in functionality with the new version that would prevent me from being able to use it, and I'm wondering if it's an actual miss on Adobe, or just user error on my part. The functionality miss that I think exists and am wondering if there's a work around for is being able to anchor the "as of date" to a cell (see screenshot for the option I'm referencing from the legacy report builder). My reports are scheduled to send early in the morning, with reporting through previous day. Our Adobe instance is set up to use our fiscal calendar, and I use fiscal dates for reporting. The issue I have would be when the report is run on day that's the first day of a new fiscal period because I would want this report to actually run the data for the fiscal period that just ended. For example, our weeks start on Sunday. When the report is run on

Hi everyone,is there a way to check which release note version of Adobe Analytics is my organization on? I know that I can check any feature update from the official documentation and that updates are applied automatically since it is a Cloud solution, but is there a way to check that a new feature release has been deployed? Many thanks in advance,Adriana

Hi, I currently have my hour of days listed out like below. How can I sort in order of actual hours so 1am, 2am, 3am etc...thanks 🙂 

What could be the reason where , I see the Beacon getting cancelled  while when I check the ecid against it the event, eVar and props getting captured . Have anyone experienced this behaviour?Has anyone come across a case where the beacons seem to be getting cancelled, but the data (events, eVars, props) still shows up in Adobe Analytics? Trying to understand what could cause this behavior

I realize you can compare to set date ranges and rolling date ranges in Workspace. What I can't figure out is how to adjust for when a user wants to compare to their own custom date range. For example, I want a dashboard where a user can: 1. Select a month and see A) total visits and B) summary change from the previous month 2. Using the same widgets as #1 the user can select the last quarter and see the summary change from the previous quarter3. Using the same widgets as #1 the user can select a random day and see the summary change from the previous day I don't want to have to set up a bunch of different visuals just to show different date ranges and the percentage change from the same previous range. This seems like a really basic feature but it doesn't appear to be possible.  Appreciate any tips.

I wanted to share a new small tool I developed for Adobe Analytics users around an efficient way to extract the Pagename variables. Its great in instances where a datalayer is used and I hope will save people some time and effort in their day to day work! It also can extract other datalayer variables so I hope you find it useful! This is ideally suited when tasked at finding info on multiple URLs all at once!Link to tool:https://deploi.ca/tools/adobeLink to blog:https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/adobe-analytics-blogs/new-tool-to-assist-adobe-analytics-professionals-the-adobe/ba-p/744433 I hope you enjoy and find the tool useful!

Hi, We've had some reports set up by a previous member of staff via Adobe Analytics report builder & these have been scheduled to run as a daily extract as a PDF. Is there any way to access the raw excel version of these reports?Thanks, Chris

Over the last two months , we’ve seen a massive drop in our Repeat Visitors number on Adobe Analytics.In January, the Repeat Visitors number was 117,595 , in February, it tanked to 277 and in March the number is 33.In end of Jan we have updated getNewRepeat code as we are getting s_nr cookie as unsecured. To fix that unsecure cookie we have updated the code with latest version but after that update we are recording the repeat users. How to fix this?

Hello, I am working on creating a segment that shows customer visits where they did not click on specific links on the specified page. When I set up the segment like below, it gives me almost 100% of the original page visits so I know it is not correct. Any help would be appreciated as this can better understand customers who don't engage with certain page areas Main Container = VISITSpage contains: page name- AND -Exclude sub containerHITSLink contains: link name- OR -Link contains: link name 

Hello, I have read multiple articles and blogs regarding how to get Adobe analytics historical data into CJA.  But I havent found any solid ones apart from https://www.fullstackanalyst.io/blog/adobe-customer-journey-analytics/web-analytics-with-adobes-customer-journey-analytics-part-2-system-architecture-in-experience-platform/Currently I do have historical data coming from adobe source connector which has its own default schema. Unfortunately I cannot select my custom schema since it does not have the Analytics experience template field group. How does one map both historical data from source connector and future data from websdk into one field ? Is this even possible ? For example I have page name that is coming as eVar1 from adobe analytics and pagename as web.pagedetails.pagename from websdk Now how do I merge these two into one field in data view? Has anyone tried like alternative approach where the datafeed is exported to datalake usin

I am a software engineer trying to implement functionality to call Adobe analytics api from backend. Usually we call analytics from the browser. But in my case the application code is hosted https://developers.google.com/apps-script here. Which is backend.The scenario is that I would not be able to call adobe analytics api from Front end/browser using window object since the code is at backend. When the api call goes to javascript backend, I will be calling the Adobe analytics api. Do we have a documentation as such for such functionality to call adobe analytics from backend?Do let me know if there are any doubts.

Trying to do some major AA houskeeping. I know you can see the number of workspaces where components are used. So, before cleaning up all our metrics and segments, I cleaned up our workspaces because I figured if there were components only being used in workspaces that have been deleted, then they would show that they're not used anywhere. I have this calculated metric saying it's being used in 32 components (screenshot 1). When I click to see where it's being used, nothing shows up (screenshot 2). I'm not sure if it makes a difference, but I'm not the owner of the metric--but I also have filtered the view of projects to show ALL projects, which should show me projects owned by others that are using this metrics. Is it possible that Adobe isn't recognizing all of the deleted workspaces as deleted and is counting those workspaces when displaying the number of "components" that this metric is used in?

Hi everyone,We’ve been troubleshooting an issue with our marketing channel processing in Adobe Analytics, where some of our paid search landing pages are incorrectly showing up under the "Organic Search" channel. (Here’s the original post for context: link).After digging into it, we realized that one of the culprits might be how our SPA (single-page application) handles the webReferrer.url value.Originally, we were just using the default document.referrer value for every pageview rules (page load and SPA view rules), including SPA route changes. The problem? Even after the user landed via Paid Search, the subsequent virtual pageviews were still showing www.google.com as the referrer, which messed up our channel attribution.Example flow:Paid Search → Landing Page (full page load) → Next Page (SPA route change)→ Referrer still shows www.google.com = bad attribution.We’ve looked around the forums and haven’t found a clear best practice for setting webReferrer.url specifically for SPAs. So

Hello,We are seeing transactions in AA that aren't in the back end system, about 60% aren't registered in the tool that actually charges for the orders.Can you think of reasons why?The transaction IDs that are captured in both the back end system and AA have a match of 96%.Thanks,Rafael 

Hi,I am facing issues while scheduling file export for a later date.The ask is to schedule a Workspace report from starting from June every 90 days.I am trying to set it up by using the below option from Share > Schedule File Report. It is showing me the below error while I am trying to hit "Send on Schedule" If I try to set it from today onwards it is getting saved, but the above error appears if we try to select future dates.I wanted to know is there anything I am missing out on? And are we not allowed to schedule reports later with a custom frequency in Adobe Workspace?

1) Technically its possible to create a connection and include all the dataset. And create dataView for each dataSet. But that may not be standard practice to determine the which dataset to be included in the connection. If we keep aside the privacy related aspect that which data we want to share with which stakeholder, are there any other factor that can influence how to strategically determine which dataset to be included in the connection ? 2) Are there any gotchas to know if we have same dataset included in multiple connections ?3) Any limitation for the having same dataset covered into multiple dataViews ?
