We've recently moved over to using Adobe Launch which was on the whole a very positive experience. However, there is always room for improvement and I've kept a list of all the little niggles that we came across in the first month which I've provided (in no particular order) here below... Adobe Analytics Set Variable action - Add conditionality to individual variablesThis form/interface seems a little clunky and unsophisticated. I'm guessing this is because it was done this way for DTM backwards compatibility? It would be good if this was re-thought. In particular, I'd like the ability to add conditionality to the setting of individual variables to stop us having to fall back to custom code. Add ability to enable/disable actions within a ruleIt would be useful for trouble shooting to be able to quickly knock out actions to see what affect it has. Also in the same way as disabling rules, it would be good to be able to remove something from the current build without completely deleting it from the interface. (possibly access by right clicking on the action?) Add ability to move/copy actions between rulesIn the same way it is useful to be able to copy between properties, it would be useful to be able to move/copy actions between rules within a property. (possibly access by right clicking on the action?) Add 'save and continue' to unsaved changes warningWhen you navigate away from something without saving first you get a warning but it doesn't give you the option to save! Add 'go to property' option when copying to another propertyWhen copying to a property, it is logical that you would want to go to the property you have copied stuff to. At the moment there is no shortcut to get there. Compare revision from within Edit Library (under publishing)When reviewing a library (e.g. before publishing) you typically what to compare revisions. It would be good to be able to do this within the library screen rather that have to navigate out to Data element/rules. Auto associate library with environment when rejectingWhen a library is rejected back to a previous stage there is no environment automatically associated with the library. If there is only one environment at that stage and no other library is using the environment it would be a time saver if it auto associated the environment. Retrieve library back to previous stage once submittedIf you submit a library to across to a stage that you do not have permissions for, you cannot get it back. e.g. accidental approval ready for publishing by a tester cannot be retrieved by the tester, you have to find someone with publishing permissions to reject the library. It would make sense to me that if you have permission to push a library to a particular state you should be able to retrieve the library from that particular state. Remove comments during minificationAlthough custom code seems to get minified, comments do not appear to be removed from the code which seems odd. Can't search within long sections of custom code Where a JS library has to be put in by cuting and pasting custom code you can end up with large blocks of custom code. It is not possible to search this custom code due to the way Adobe incrementally loads this code as you scroll to view it. This can make it difficult to manage. Default to more items on the rules list and elements listThe default is 10, I'm regularly selecting 100. Could you default to a larger number or remember the users selection? Add ability to alert when a library is published (e.g. via email, SMS/Text)From a security point of view we would like to be able to have alerts sent out whenever a library is published. The publisher should not be able to block the alert or amend the distribution list.
There’s been a long-standing issue with the way Marketo sees CRM users (in both MS Dynamics and SFDC) in that it will display all users – active, inactive, deleted – as available users to sync leads to from within Marketo. Many companies like us never delete user records - instead, we deactivate them in CRM. For example, a contractor who transitions to an FTE which requires a new/different enterprise ID (and CRM user record). For example, Arun has two records in CRM (one active, one deactivated). Yet when we attempt to sync a lead to him, we see this:Since Marketo only shows first/last, there’s no way for us to identify the active record. To make matters worse, just this week a new issue has surfaced where Marketo is throwing an error flag when trying to sync since it’s now using just the user's name as the unique identifier (even if we select the active record) - why Marketo doesn't use the user GUID makes no sense to me:One workaround would be to modify the last name on our end in CRM (e.g., "Kumar (deactivated)". Unfortunately, the first and last name in CRM are locked and synced from Active Directory… we cannot change them in CRM directly.
I would like to request the ability to assign an assignee(s) while creating a new story. By default, it should assign the story to the person creating the story. The reason why this is important is because currently, a new story is not assigned to anyone after creation. This "loses" the story in the list of stories. By requiring an assignee to the story, even defaulting to the creator, it'll help avoid the situation of a new story getting buried in a large set of stories.
It is presently recommended to only use a 100% browser zoom setting due to possible inconsistent results. This idea is to allow other browser zoom settings to help those that may be disabled or have vision issues. Enhancing the zoom settings will also benefit those while traveling that have less screen area available for viewing. I
the Data Insertion API allows for passing IP Address. This allows for companies to develop middlelayer services to communicate between client and Adobe. The Media Collection API does not allow for passing IP address as a payload value.This causes [Regions, Cities, Countries] dimensions to contain the location of the middlelayer (since the IP address of the middlelayer is used for geo location). It would be great if this inconsistency between the Media Collection API and the Data Insertion API was remedied
Many of my users would like to be able to have Decisions and Replies to my Comments as their default email alerts in a proof but they are forced to choose one or the other. We choose Decisions and then all comments have to be @ tagged again and again and people invariably forget to @ update someone, causing confusion.
Create template for Analysis work space for test results for A4T. It should be able to calculate confidence across multiple metrics and can be easily duplicated to apply various segments. Bring back the confidence intervals that were there in older versions of Target. Pulling results for A4T tests in Target can be time consuming if you are looking at multiple metrics across multiple segments. In the advanced functions for Analysis works space - it seems that it should be possible with T Scores and Z Scores already in the functions. Since we sometimes use classifications in conjunction with metrics - not everything can be pulled in Target making additional work to input numbers in another worksheet to calculate confidence.
Current alert e-mail template does not contain any option to Analyze the alert in user specific project. The button link "Analyze Further" leads to a prefabricated project. Another option how to achieve this, could be to put a custom link to Alert notes. If the notes would be a part of template it could fit too.Or prepare the specific element in the e-mail template leading to the specific project in Workspace and assigned by URL at Alert definition page.
Use Case: Would like to be able to create segment in Adobe that shows the top 20% of users based on revenue. This "top spenders" segment could then be used in various reports to understand behavior such as what games they are purchasing on the digital stores, what content they are consuming, and what Marketing Channels were successful at bring them to the site. Feature Request:Have the ability to create a segment to pull back a percentage of a dimension based on user-defined values or a range of user defined values. These segments could then be leveraged on any reports within Workspace to easily gain learnings based on the Top X% or the Bottom X% of any dimension for any reporting period. An idea would be to have functionality similar to Intelligent Alerts where you can define whether the metric(s) is "above or equals/below or equals" a user-defined percentage, along with the capability to drag and drop a dimension.
Hi, We have a fairly large instance and it'd be great to be able to receive automated reports on some items we find in admin. An example: I'd like to get a report of users who have not logged in for the last year. Another example: how many API requests have we had in the past 7 days? Ideally, we'd be able to subscribe to receive this report regularly via email. Adam
Hello, It would be great to be able to see any and every comment/update made from Task level and up when you go in under the Portfolio and updates, regardless of where you made the comment/update. Thank you!
Currently you are only able to send WF reports (from the WF interface) from the designated administrative email (In my company's case, it's a generic "Workfront Support" alias). I think team members would be more likely to look at these reports if they came directly from the user who scheduled the repeating delivery or sent the report (similar to a comment notification)
Idea: My proposed idea is to implement a global setting in the Salesforce section within Admin that allows you to delay the sync of campaign member for a designated number of minutes. Why: I've often found myself at odds with the practicality of leaving on the Salesforce Campaign Sync feature in Marketo. It's super helpful in that it ensure proper alignment between our Marketo Programs & Salesforce Campaign. We can also easily sync period costs to total cost, saving time, effort, and improving data accuracy across systems. My main issue with leaving the program sync on, is that the sync operates too quickly and sends leads to Salesforce before they're considered "ready" from the operations perspective. I'm sure every business has their own standard of "ready" but in our case, we stamp the Lead Source, populate Lifecycle Stage, fill in some datastamp, and run some data append processes via webhook in market. Ideally we want all of these values populated before the lead ever hits salesforce to ensure accurate lead routing to sales, and leaving the salesforce sync on causes leads to be sent over to salesforce before marketo has had a chance to do its thing.We've gotten around this by implementing wait steps before "change SFDC campaign status" flow steps in every marketo program we run. This works for us in theory, but doesn't work 100% at scale. Sync campaign flow steps can fail at times for various reason (either marketo or salesforce related), and we cannot create reports or receive alerts about those failures within Marketo. Also, the flow step failures never attempt to resync automatically, leaving us in the dark to research for errors in the activities log for all of our marketo programs manually, or pulling logs from the batch API.This solution also doesn't scale particularly well if we ever want to adjust that wait step. Since wait step values can't be populated by global token, we need to go into every single active program to change the wait time. Not fun. Curious what the community's thoughts are on this matter.If you leave the campaign sync on, how do you get around imcomplete records from entering salesforce before they're "ready"Do other people leave the sync off like we do? Have you seen problems flow steps failing? How do you scale managing your wait steps?
Currently, Adobe Launch allows 3 kinds of hosts: Akamai, managed by Adobe, and SFTP.For a CDN host, only Akamai and SFTP are viable options. (For SFTP, this assumes that the CDN replicates the scripts found in your SFTP destination.) So the only external CDN is really Akamai.Depending on one external CDN as a host is dangerous. If something happens at Akamai, it disables all Launch scripts hosted there. Also, clients may not necessarily want to use Akamai for whatever reasons.Idea: partner with other CDNs to allow hosting from them, e.g. Cloudflare.
Every prop and every classification of a prop has a corresponding 'exit' and 'entry' version of the prop. This leads end users to be presented with far too many options which can be very confusing.For example, the below prop has 2 classifications; as a result the end user is present with 9 different options!Please can you consider changing the interface so that the entry and exit version do not show up at the top level? A possible solution would be to make entry and exit variables available from the chevron as the first level of drill down before reaching the items for a prop.leading to....
Use Case:Ability to create various shopper segments that look back for a user-defined period of time based on the number of purchases made. For example, to have the ability to look atOne Time Shoppers (defined as users who placed 1 order in the past 12 months)Casual (defined as 2-5 orders placed in the past in 12 months)Frequent (defined as 6 - 10 orders placed in the past in 12 months)Super (defined as >10 orders placed in the past in 12 months) Feature Request:Ability to create a visitor segment that allows for creation of a container that can look back in time to a user-defined time frame. The time frame defined in the segment should be given priority over the reporting period. For example, if a report were ran for the last 2 full months (reporting period), and the One Time Shopper segment were applied, then segment should look back 12 months to determine if any of the traffic during the reporting period meets the segment criteria.
I use the debugger mostly for Analytics and it would be preferable for me if the new network requests loaded on the left (front) rather then the right (end). I am mostly looking for the latest request and it is a pain to have to go to the bottom of the window and scroll to the right to see the newest request. Maybe make the sort/load direction an option? If that is not possible, maybe the left/right scroll bar could be at the top of the window as opposed to the bottom?
We have many users who share a name and would like to be able to search and find users based on their email alias (sso Username) when tagging in an update.
Es wäre so schön wenn sich unter Catalina am Mac die Fenster auf verschiedengroßen Monitoren und iPad (Sidecar) automatisch anpassen könnten.
I find it annoying that the request automatically collapses if I leave the application for a moment. I'd like it to keep the state I've left it in, as long as the window remains open.
I find the contrast too soft, specially when reading in the light mode.
The UI for the date selector in Analysis Workspace has changed to result in more whitespace. On smaller screens, that means a lot of scrolling is needed when toggling the rolling date ranges.See this screenshot where the bottom part got cut off, requiring scrolling.Also, given the absence of a scrollbar, it's not immediately obvious that scrolling is needed.FYI my screen resolution is 1440x900.
With the new v1.8.4 there is a change which I really don't like. To understand the change, first have a look at how it looks in the old v1.8.3: As you can see there are all the default variables easy to access. I understand that in most cases all the fields remain empty and it is a lot of place ... that might be the reason why the change was made in v1.8.4, see here:All the default variables are now hidden behind a simple checkbox - check it and see the additional fields as above. What's bad?There are 2 points that I don't like about thatIf you have the settings closed, you have no indication that you maybe have filled in some of the fields - so easy to forget about a single field that has a value. just had sort of nightmare while debugging an issue...the action remembers the setting of the view in the UI - good. but this setting is written in the final launch library code! it adds an additional string to the action with a boolean value for "showAdditionalSettings".Idea to improveI suggest to change it from a checkbox-feature to an "accordeon", so basically hiding the additional fields until the user clicks on the header (or on an icon to open), closed by default.in case there is at least 1 field with a value the accordeon could either be open at view or the accordeon title could have a badge indicating that there are hidden settings. please change this as soon as possible!
Hi Community,we are a globally operating company that is present in multiple different countries and are currently facing issues with the way how currencies are setup and used in Workfront.Next to the default currency which is EUR in our case multiple other currencies are required like GPB US Dollar and more.Working with Portfolios we are able to set a seperat currency on different levels of the portfolio like i.e. within a program. All buget or currency based information is then based in for example US dollar as we need it. Unfortunately there is one area left. The area of Portfolio Opitimization is the only area where the default currency is pulled from the system. This has negative effect on our business as usual.Therefore we would like to raise the request to be able to setup a currency on portfolio level for the whole portfolio including Programs, Projects and Tasks without using a system default. This has to affect all areas of the portfolio including reports.Kind regards,
The annotation ability within proof is great but currently limited without the ability to add text over the proof image itself.It would be amazing to be able to add text over the top of a proof image as an annotation, the same way you can add the other elements such as a box or arrow, ie effectively a style of watermark - so may even be useful to be able to adjust opacity as a bonus, but definitely colour, font and size. Even at it's most basic such as you find in Paint would be great.The use I see for these is adding an identifier to the image, in my case a product name or description over the top of the image, or set of images as a visual aid, as opposed to the note itself. This is different from the current text tool that only select text within certain file types, which is not what I need.I've tried adding an image as an example but unfortunately it keeps failing...
