Adobe Analytics

I'm trying to use a calculated metric within the segment builder, and it's not showing up. I can see the metric in the calculated metrics section, and in workspace, but it does not show up in segment builder. I suspect it might have something to do with the fact that it uses a custom lookback window.The reason I'm trying to use this metric in a segment is because of an issue with lookback windows. We were using a visitor container in a segment and it was causing lots of inconsistency in our reporting when we pull different date ranges. So we changed it to visit window and it was too narrow. So we were trying to split the difference with a custom 90-day lookback window on this metric.

Hi everyone,I've encountered an issue in Adobe Analytics while trying to calculate the overall average time spent on my web pages. The automatic total at the top of my column currently sums up the average times, resulting in a total of 27 minutes, which isn't the correct overall average I'm looking for.I believe there must be a straightforward way to achieve this, but I seem to be stuck. Any advice on how to get the correct overall average calculation would be greatly appreciated!Thanks you by advance ! 

We have purchase order numbers in an eVar and have been uploading classifications such as:Order Type, Order Date, Item Number, Promo Code, List Price, Selling Price The List Price and Selling Price are coming through as dimensions instead of metrics, so we can’t use them to determine revenue from an order, tactic, channel, etc. - is there a way to import those differently so they can be used as metrics? I have never set up a data source, but it looks like that might be a good option. Thanks.

By: Luc Forgeron & Prachi Jain The Landscape  You love your Mobile Adobe Analytics (AA) implementation! You have worked hard to get your app data to match that of your web properties. You are enjoying the fruits of your labor in deriving key insights into your digital business and understanding how your customers use your apps. Now you need to activate upon this data in a platform setting to satisfy your “personalization-at-scale” objectives, so what do you do next? In other words, if the "what" that you collect from your mobile Adobe Analytics implementation is in a great spot, but you are not sure “how” to get that data into Platform, this is the blog for you.   Edge Data Collection via the Web SDK or AEP Mobile SDK is the backbone, heart, and future of the new Adobe ecosystem for streaming data. While many organizations have already migrated their web analytics to AEP Web SDK, pivoting to a new native application data architecture is an important next step to

I'm a little confused how to read the breakdown of my algorithmic data and couldn't find any online explanations. In this case, during this time period, it would say that Influencer should be credited with $200K more revenue than last touch gives credit. However, when I breakdown the channel by more specific marketing tags to understand why, I get tags which don't even apply to the specified channel (which makes sense why they all have $0s in last touch). But then why is "google" which is typically only used by Paid Search showing up as a breakdown on Influencer? How should I read this? So did Influencer add $129K in value to search during this period? Or did search add $129K in value to Influencer? Did the combination of the two generate $129K in additional value? Or is there some other way to understand what I'm getting here?  

Hi, Is it advisable to check Products dimension along with other ecommerce events in Analysis Workspace. If we found some junk values like below, what could be the probable reason. Note : Yes, there was a problem in product syntax earlier but that has also been fixed a week earlier. And I am checking the data for last 2 days, it still shows some values starting with "eVar=" . What could be the reason for these few entries still persisting in the data? Thanks for the inputs.

I've been experiencing a problem with our link tracking where certain button clicks don't send a click event to Adobe Analytics. I didn't setup the tracking, but from what I can tell, the configuration is looking for any buttons with CSS selector "button". We have a custom condition as well to ignore buttons with PII as we are not allowed to track users personal information. I've verified that buttons that aren't being sent do not meet the conditions to be excluded. Currently at a loss for how to solve this issue as it is affecting multiple of our button click tracking capabilities.This is what the setup looks like:Link tracking setup:Activate Link Tracking is custom code:  Custom code for excluding user data (in the NOT condition):

Hi, Consider a scenario where I want to get the occurrence count for events occurring between the difference of two metrics of the type datetime. E.g. ingested records in aep contains two fields 'timestamp' and 'purchaseTimestamp'. I want to find the count of records for which the difference in 'timestamp' and 'purchaseTimestamp' lies between the category of '0-5 Min', '5-10Min', '10-15 min'. Any suggestions, help is much appreciated

Hi Team,I am using evar1 to capture the search term , client wants to know how many words are used in search term.Is there way in adobe analytics workspace if calculated metrics with any functions will achieve this ask. Or we need to ask the developer to pass the count of words in another evars.

What is the recommended approach to clear variables after a send event action, similar to the Adobe Analytics extension "Clear Variables"?  I am not using xdm model, but using the data object in the web sdk extension to send data. I'm understanding something incorrectly or just not finding the answer I am looking for. 

I have implemented scroll depth tracking using the Time and Scroll event. It was working fine for 25% and 50% on all pages. For 100%, it worked correctly in the home page. However, when I navigated to a different page and scrolled to the bottom, the event was not triggered. I was maintaining the same condition for all the percentage rule. I am using the Threshold for time spent as 0.01 for all the percentage rule. I have attached the screenshot of the rule. can anyone tell the what could be the reason for this.

Hello, I'm working with a linear allocated eVar and I'm wondering what is the correct way to measure performance using this eVar up against success events for Orders and Revenue.From my screenshot above, can you help me understand the following questions please?When I isolate the values of this eVar in a Freeform table, the Revenue and Orders metrics are not matching vs when I adjust the attribution model for them to match the eVars settings - "Linear, expire at Visit". Can you help me understand why that is the case? Shouldn't the metrics match when I am using the same allocation and expiration?When I create a hit container segment, following the same logic as the Freeform Table- the different allocated metrics now match- how can that be the case when they did not match in the Freeform table?How would I report these success metrics against this type of eVar? For example, I want to know how a group of this eVar's values performed in terms of Orders and Revenue. Should I

Hello,I am interested in programmatically importing txt files using the Admin tab's Classification Importer. I looked over the documentation available for using the API to accomplish this task (documentation link: https://developer.adobe.com/analytics-apis/docs/2.0/guides/endpoints/classifications/import-file/) but noticed that to use these API requests I need access to a dataset value. I found this API request that pulls down all dataSet values: GET https://{environment}.adobe.io/data/foundation/catalog/dataSets (documentation link: https://developer.adobe.com/experience-platform-apis/references/catalog/#tag/Datasets). But I cannot use this API request because it requires SandBox data which is information I do not have access to because I do not have Experience Platform access.Is there another way of automating the classification importer? 

Hi All, I am trying to get distinct count of a dimension in a metric. I have tried using Approximate count distinct however its not giving exact nos. I am aware that it is using some Log Log algorightm to count and has 0-5% change margin from exact no. Wanted to check if there is any way around to get the exact count. Appreciate the help here. Thank you!

Hi,  I am new to adobe analytics and would like to know how to calculate exits. The definition says "The number of times a given dimension item is captured as the last value in a visit. This can help you understand the last thing visitors see before leaving your site, allowing you to optimize the experience a visitor gets before they leave." For now i have understood that every visit will have an exit and so i have marked last_page in the visit as exit page.  So for example, i am trying to group by dataset by different combinations like   group by date, countrygroup by date, country, marketing_channelgroup by date, country, retailer_name. The end goal was to calculate time_spent_per_page which has the logic as total seconds spent/(page views-(exits+bounces)) Any help in this much appreciated. Thanks 

When setting up click tracking in Adobe Analytics, should we set it up at the hit or visit level? Thank you!
