We do a lot of emails where a PDF of the PSD file is uploaded into Workfront Proof or ProofHQ. In these situations, the Text tool is not available because the text is in an image. It would be really helpful if users could format text in the comment box when they are making edits to text in an image. Currently, our users have to spell out the formatting in the comment box (e.g., [start bold] Welcome! [end bold])
Request for Feature Enhancement (RFE) Summary: Hi, I'm writing this because we would like to have the name of the initiator of the Workflow instead of the "workflow-process-service" name in the "Published by" field. Any ideas if we can do that? Or is it a new Feature Request? Thanks Fabio Use-case: When publishing pages with the rollout options, it displays "workflow-process-service" in the "Published by" field. Current/Experienced Behavior: When publishing pages with the rollout options, it displays "workflow-process-service" in the "Published by" field. Improved/Expected Behavior: Instead of the "workflow-process-service" name, we would like to have the name of the initiator of the workflow in the "Published by" field. Environment Details (AEM version/service pack, any other specifics if applicable): 2024.6.16799.20240614T073455Z Customer-name/Organization name: N/A Screenshot (if applicable): Code package (if applicable):
Hello,We used to use another analytical solution to do our analyses. Adobe Analytics allows a much finer analysis than your main competitor. And that's bravo.On the other hand, you lack a major functionality compared to your competitors: it is impossible today to compare dates in a dynamic way.Example :I want to compare a period01/01/201818/01/2018versus last yearI can use your "compare date period" feature and I will then have the same date versus year-1 namely 01/01/2017 to 18/01/2017but if I change the date in the main panel to put18/01/201830/01/2018My comparison column will then remain on 01/01/2017 to 18/01/2017So it's a disaster for the analyses and I don't see myself updating my tables every time I want to do an analysis.Can you therefore propose a functionality allowing to have a checkbox in the main calendar with the mention :- comparison versus last year- comparison versus last monthAnd this in a dynamic wayThanks
I noticed an update to Workfront's interface recently. When you pin projects to the top tool bar, you used to be able to drag and drop to rearrange their order. Now you have to right click and say "move left" or "move right" Could we bring back the drag and drop feature to pinned projects?? Or maybe drag and drop reordering to our "Favorite" projects list? My projects change all the time and the simple task of keeping them alphabetical in my toolbar for easy access is now extremely tedious 😞
Description - Add field to capture entry date of a dashboard similar to the entry date of an issue, project, task, or user. Why is this feature important to you - This is important because we need to know how long a dashboard has been available to be used. This helps tell the story of high quality dashboards that can be duplicated/copied for other users across my instance and peer customers of Adobe Workfront. If a dashboard has been around for years and was recently modified that highlights importance and emphasizes need to secure it and have it monitored for quality control. The dashboards in Adobe Workfront are often used to drive key business decisions and knowing every aspect about a dashboard is critical to data governance and management. Additionally, this will help us when we are auditing dashboards that may potentially need to be deleted if we can assess how long they have been in the system. How would you like the feature to work - Users should be able to add the field as a column (view), filter or grouping in similar manner as an entry date for a project, issue, or task when reporting on dashboards and that information should be available within the dashboard itself so users can easily identify when the dashboard was created. Current Behaviour - The field is not available in Workfront UI or API Explorer.
Description -Allow the percent change columns of comparing two different time period to update dynamically as the panel date range AND comparison date range update. Additionally, allow for the option/toggle of showing the change in basis points when comparing percentages like conversion rate and bounce rate. Why is this feature important to you -This is imperative as we share reports with business leaders and stakeholders to change the date ranges dynamically and maintain the integrity of the data presented in the report. As it is now without dynamically updating the calculation as EITHER date range changes, the report presents false and misleading data when date ranges are changed for deeper analysis. How would you like the feature to work -Ideally the comparison date range would be set at the panel level and allow for only the percent change column to be present in the table (or the comparison period also, it would allow either way to work), and update based on the dates input in the panel date range function, and continue to update as the date ranges are changed during analysis.It would also be efficient to not have to generate this for each separate metric in the table.Also would be nice when comparing percentages to allow for a toggle of comparing by basis point change rather than percent change. Current Behavior -Currently the percent change period do not update after the initial calculation when the comparison date range is set. If the comparison date range is updated the percent change columns do not update and can present misleading and false data, especially for stakeholders and business leaders who are less familiar with the tool. Currently I have to set the comparison date range 6 times if I have 6 different metrics in my report. This is tedious and inefficient.I also do not have a way within the Analytics UI to calculate a basis point change rather than a percentage change.
Description - We'd like to be able to upload a csv file that has events and their labels/names, so Adobe can assign those labels/names to the right fields without us having to manually update each event label/name. We have thousands of events. Why is this feature important to you - Reduce tedious manual workHow would you like the feature to work - Automate naming of eventsCurrent Behavior - Manually naming each event
Description - The request is for Adobe to create the folder structure based on the year/month/day of the writing of the data. Can the Prefix use special characters that would add the year/month/day information to the Prefix automatically? This is a standard thing with other products. It helps with partitioning of the data. Why is this feature important to you - I understand Adobe does not have this capability. But I would suggest that as a future enhancement Adobe thinks about enabling the creation of subfolders. Most products I work with today have this capability because it is a standard practice to partition data that is written daily into bins for the day. With this limitation in the Adobe Data Feed product, it requires extra processing on our side to move the files into appropriate locations post Adobe’s writing of the data. How would you like the feature to work - Current Behaviour - Feature not available.
Situation: Like with other components, it is possible to set a project to "Approved" status. Other components such as Segments or Custom Metrics, indicate this by showing a little checkmark icon next to the name. Projects are lacking this feature, rendering it less useful. (I'm aware you are able to filter by status though.)Request: Add a checkmark icon (or an additional column) in the Projects overview.
DescriptionThe new embedded Guided Analysis feature in Workspace allows users to save configured analysis for future use. The screenshot below shows what a Saved analysis looks like in the left rail. Unfortunately, once the analysis is created, it cannot be deleted or modified from within the Workspace UI. The only options available are tag, favorite, and approve. If a user wants to make any changes to the analysis, they have to go to the Workspace manager, select "Folders & Projects" as the view, and then enable the "Guided analysis" Type in the filter. This seems to be the only way to rename or delete an analysis. Note that the search function does not look for saved Guided analysis. Most users aren't going to look in Folders & Projects in the Workspace manager, so they won't know how to make adjustments to anything saved. It would be easier for users if Adobe allowed them to delete, modify, and share saved analysis from within the Workspace UI. Why is this feature important to youAny point of friction, such as requiring users to go to a different page (e.g. Folders & Projects) to do something will hurt adoption because it causes confusion. Friction also increases the odds that users will submit tickets that admins have to deal with. How would you like the feature to workMake the saved analysis options the same as the options for components within the Workspace UI. The screenshot below is what appears when a dimension is right-clicked on. Ideally, an "Edit" option will be included in the list (this isn't included for components, for some reason). If this isn't possible, update the tool tip to include the edit option, as we have with calculated metrics and filters. Current BehaviorUsers can only make adjustments to saved Guided analysis via the Workspace manager, which requires them to go to an infrequently used section of a different page.
Description - Where a subclassification is already created as part of copying a report suite, it is currently not possible to identify which report suite the subclassification is attached to. Tags on subclassifications do not appear in the left rail of the classification sets UI, and filtering by report suite does not return subclassifications.Why is this feature important to you - Where there are multiple report suites that have similar classification requirements, it is difficult to identify which one has been most recently updated with the latest classification file.How would you like the feature to work - I would like to be able to use the report suite filters or tag filters available in the classification sets UI to filter subclassificationsCurrent Behaviour - subclassifications cannot be easily identified or filtered by report suite or Tags
Description -It is so easy when expanding a panel to accidentally click on the x and delate it!How would you like the feature to work -Please add a warning popup when the x is hit.Current Behaviour -It deletes the entire panel and you have to press Ctrl-Z to undo.
Description -Currently, when using "flows" in Adobe Analytics or CJA, you are limited to using only individual dimensional items one at a time. It would be super helpful to be able to use a hit-based segment so that you can see flows into a "group" of items (ex: a group of URLs). Why is this feature important to you - Scalability, it will allow the user to see more macro flow visuals. How would you like the feature to work -Allow hit-based segments to be dropped into "flow" displays. Current Behavior -You can only include individual dimensional items.
Description -One of the biggest pain points in Analysis Worskpace for my users is that they don't understand which dimensions and metrics should (and should not) be used together in freeform tables or other visualizations. Having a means to connect related dimensions and metrics so that when a user selects one component, the other related components become immediately visible in the left rail would make this easier for less advanced users. Why is this feature important to you -It would greatly help less experienced users become more familiar with how dimensions and metrics relate to each other and empower them to confidently select the right components for their needs with fewer mistakes and less need for support. It will also cut down on the amount of incorrect data shared company-wide due to misinterperetation of the data or use of the wrong components for their reporting needs. How would you like the feature to work -A UI tab where admins can create curated component collections, selecting the different dimensions and metrics that make sense to use together in reports. When a user pulls one of the components into a report, the left rail would be automatically filtered to show the related components at the top (like a "recommended" or "related content" feature on a website). Current Behaviour -Tags are the closest way to do this, but it's difficult to get users to remember to use them for filtering, and we have so many different tags, it's difficult to know which ones to use for which purpose.
DescriptionOne of the CJA guardrails limits the number of derived fields that can be added to a Freeform Table to five. When a user tries to add more than this, they will see a popup like the one shown below: While the limit itself isn't an issue, it's highly likely that an everyday user will have no idea what a derived field is and how to avoid using an additional one. There are really only three ways to tell whether a component is based on a derived field: The user can look at the component tool tip, which will include a "Field settings" tab if the component is a derived fieldAdmins can indicate that a component is based on a derived field in the component nameAdmins can indicate that a component is based on a derived field in the component descriptionUsers aren't super likely to look at #1 or #3, and organizations probably don't want to clutter up component names. This means that they may see the notification and immediately contact an admin for help. One option to making it easier for users to understand which components are based on derived fields is to include a small icon next to the component name. We already have this for calculated metrics and Adobe standard components. Why is this feature important to youAllows users to quickly see that a metric or dimension is based on a derived field. How would you like the feature to workAdd an icon to the component in the left rail of Workspace if a component is based on a derived field. Current BehaviourThere is no graphical indicator that a component is based on a derived field.
Description of the Business Challenge:Currently, if you are using a virtual reporting suite to provide a controlled clean environment for your analysts, you need to first go to the admin console to assign dimensions, metrics, and segments to the reporting suite. It would be easier to have the ability (as an admin) to assign components to a reporting suite while directly working inside Workspace. Why is this feature important to you - Having this feature will accelerate organizing virtual reporting suites and will also allow assignment of components on the fly. I cannot count the times I have thought "this should be in the VRS" but then didn't have the time and forgot to make the change. How would you like the feature to work - When in the components list view or inside a component configuration, allow a dropdown to be present so you can select what reporting suits the component is applicable to. Current Behavior - You need to back out into the Admin Console to assign components to a virtual reporting suite.
Description -1. AWS Web Analytics product team uploads AWS blog meta data via classification importer feature in Adobe Analytics (AA). Also we use Classification rule builder feature to automatically classify AWS product pages meta data in AA reporting. Unfortunately these classification data can't be sent to downstream AWS s3 location via Adobe Analytics data feed feature. We have a downstream bigger data lake system where we send hourly data feed from Adobe Analytics. Every time my team works on the classification addition or modification needs to be manually worked by AWS downstream data engineering team to add the same details in their database to bring parity to AA and other system reporting. This is time consuming and repetitive task. 2. There are limited eVars (250) available for Adobe Analytics. Classification is a great feature to separate out concatenated data being passed to an eVar and store individual values in different coulmns associated with that eVar. This feature saves number of eVars to be used for this kind of implementation. Unfortunately AWS Web Analytics team can't utilize this feature because we send hourly data feed to downstream data lake where classification data can't be sent. How would you like the feature to work - Classification columns (eVars columns) needs to be included in data feed eVar list. Why is this feature important to you - This feature is important because this will save significant time for AWS data engineering team and also reporting will be in sync automatically.
Adobe - please allow for public Workspace projects to be embedded in third party platforms/websites.Currently, your page includes a Content Security Policy (CSP) directive which prevents the pages from being framed by non-Adobe domains. I can think of a great number of use cases for such functionality, including AA reporting in Tableau dashboard without having to design an entire ETL process for moving the data from AA into Tableau.
Description - Multiple Breakdowns Applying as Time Expands.Why is this feature important to you - It alleviates lots of manual work.How would you like the feature to work - To automatically apply breakdowns with certain dimensions to others as time increases.Current Behaviour - You have to manually add 1 or more breakdown dimensions to each month dimension value that gets added as time goes on.
Description -I set my panel dates and checked the advanced setting "make date range components relative to panel calendar".On my table, i right clicked on my custom metric, did "compare time periods" and "custom date range to this date range". The new custom date range + percent change metrics are correct at first. But when i change the dates on my panel, while i see custom date range metric updating accurately, percent change column always goes to 0%. So the custom date range metric will update dynamically but the % change metric will not. Why is this feature important to you - This to me seems like a defect and can be confusing for other Adobe users who expect that to change. i had to remove % change column from my dashboard altogether to avoid confusion because changing dates in the dashboard is a common use case for this dashboard.
