Adobe,The Admin Console is still HIGHLY labor intensive when you want to control permissions for Adobe Analytics.  Not only that, it's a BAD user experience.First of all, I should not have to go to the Help documentation just to understand the sub-groupings of permissions you previously had in the group and user access management in the Adobe Analytics tool.Even worse: On any of the Permissions edit screens - EVERY time you add or remove an item from either the Available Permission Items or Included Permission Items, the list jumps back to the top and also wipes out your search criteria.  You also can't select more than one permissions option at a time (REALLY?!?).  The Metrics and Dimensions permissions contain ~2,000 options alone, and you want me to either add/remove everything, or tediously scroll (or search) for every single change I need to make?I was honestly hoping when we went through the user migration that this would be fixed shortly afterward, but I'm thinking Continuous Im

Hi Adobe,since ages I wait for you to do some proper stuff for your customers. This is the first time I follow the invitation to place the idea here, but I still find it blaming for you that I have to do so!Here's why:- I need YTD- I need it through sFTP- For sure there will be more than 50.000 rows of dataUnfortunately, there is no tool that can fulfill all the 3 requirements!YTD can only be fetched through Report builder but it wouldn't support rows more than 50,000 and it delivers to FTP only!Data warehouse will give you unlimited rows with SFTP support but doesn't support YTD feature!Don't talk about delivering by mail and forget reports & Analytics or Workspace!This is like the distinct count, which is also not available and a ton of other really normal things when working with data, but you're the Leader in analytics, well....

Can we have the ability to alter rule builder vai the admin / classfication api? When you have hundered of sites imapcted by serveral rules it would be nice to utalize an api to do bulk edits. ThanksSteven

It would be infinetely beneficial to enable processing rules to build/handle the product variable.  This is something other 3rd party tools like Segment & mParticle are able to do.  As our implementation becomes more complex and spans multiple platforms we are reliant on mutliple developers (web, ios, android, windows, etc) for implementation support.   Asking our developers to update the product string for all new measurement requirements requires time & money.  However, asking them to prgoramatically solve adding new variables to a product context variable (or any context variable) reduces developement resources and increases implementation speed & flexibility. It would be great if we could pass an array of product data as a context variable that we could then use to build the product string with processng rules.  See below for an example array. Also, it would be an added bonus if we no longer had to set s.events for events existing wthin the product variable.  But if thi

Right now it is not possible to create product profiles via the API, but only manually within the Admin Console. Since this is very time consuming and annoying, it would be great if it will be changed.

It looks like currently s.clearVars clears just about everything BUT pageName:function(){var c,b;for(c=0;c<a.g.length;c++)if(b=a.g[c],"prop"==b.substring(0,4)||"eVar"==b.substring(0,4)||"hier"==b.substring(0,4)||"list"==b.substring(0,4)||"channel"==b||"events"==b||"eventList"==b||"products"==b||"productList"==b||"purchaseID"==b||"transactionID"==b||"state"==b||"zip"==b||"campaign"==b)a[b]=void 0}The problem is, on single page apps (which is probably the biggest use case for using clearVars), I need pageName cleared out as well.For instance, I have some logic that sets the pageName based on the URL, but only if s.pageName hasn't already been set for that beacon. The problem is, if pageName is ever set, it hangs around, so it always looks like s.pageName is set, even if it wasn't set for that beacon. I'm having to run clear vars, THEN go in and manually clear out s.pageName as well. This affects the Launch Adobe Analytics extension "clear vars" action as well, since that just uses the

When scheduling weekly reports in Data Warehouse it asks "Day of Week" which since Monday to Sunday is all day of week, and doesn't tell you anything, could this be changed to "Week Begins" so it makes sense.

I found difficult to select the segment in data warehouse while creating a report. Adding a Search/Filter option will help the user to search the Segment instead of scrolling and choosing the segment. Please refer the screengrab below

Hi,I think that as a business, it's important to have flexibility on selecting reporting and reference dates so that we can get MTD vs previous MTD or YTD vs previous YTD. Example: - May 12 2019 we had 1000 visits- May 12 2018 we had 950 visits (ref period)This would require to be able to define the pretended reporting period time vs reference period time as we used to have with DaX Comscore. Is it possible to add that functionality? Thanks

If you have a report in workspace using an event, something like product views as your metric and week as your dimension, and you see a drop in views in the last week and you want to see which day that started on, you would break it down by day. However, when breaking down by day, it will give you a list of all days in your time period, not just the days in the week you are breaking down, like this:I don't understand why this would be the case. I would expect to only see the days in the week I am breaking down. One thing to note, when I do that same type of report but use a standard metric (like visits, page views) then this issue doesn't happen (I only see the days of the week I am breaking down).

We have found that we can include in a Data Feed (in order to ingest that data in our Data Lake) the Last and First Touch Channel ID. Not the name of the channel, because, being processed data is imposible to have the name in the hit.But there is no way to have a matching table, because it´s not possible to automate an export of the Marketing Channels names with the ID, we can export the variables using a DWH, but there´s no variable for the ID.It will be very useful to be able to program export of the Marketing Channels definition with IDs and corresponding names.

Now that certification for Processing Rules is no longer required, it should be time to open up a Save method for processing rules in the APIPresently the only method available is 'ViewProcessingRules' in the 'ReportSuite' APIAs a company with dozens of active RSIDs with standardized Processing Rules, a change in one rule set is a pain to roll out everywhereHaving a Save method for Processing rules would make it easy to update across Report Suites, as it is done now with variables/events

To send an error message to registered email address when FTP transfer failed on DWH.

I'm using Adobe Analytics for the reporting of votes (e.g. go to work by bike) in diverse regions.Due to the fact, that Adobe Analytics shows color according to the amount of votes, the reports is confusing to our users. The votes for "By bike" are shown in orange in region A and are shown in blue in another region. This is because Adobe Analytics shows colors in the way that the highest item is always orange, etc.. If you want to compare one and the same item in different regions, then the report doesn't work anymore and is even confusing.Why not allow the use of static colors, which can be attached to a data type?

Currently we have option to paste query as "Paste > Absolute Input" and "Paste > Relative Input".We need option to paste with combination of Absolute and Relative (Some Inputs as Absolute and Some Inputs as Relative)Which helps many reports..RegardsAshok

it is not possible to share assets with admin console user groups at the moment. you have create redundant product profile groups. can you please allow us to use user groups for this purpose ? this would allow us to use user groups to assign product and share assets within a product. this list only references product profile groups, which i would never create to share assets.

It would be great if we could enable/disable, create, and edit Alerts via API.Enable/disable would help customers keep them relevant and work around the "have to delete 12 meaningless Alerts every morning" effect.Create/edit on top of that would allow better integration with Enterprise systems.

It would be great to be able to compare reports from two/multiple reports suites in workspace similar to legacy Reports & Analytics interface. It will allow us to compare content performance in different countries/geographical reasons in workspace report.

In the data warehouse if you setup a schedule it is not possible to see what date range the extract was setup to cover or the dimensions added. This can make it impossible to manage on older schedule unless you put all the details in the schedule name.It would be good if reporting date could be added to the request manager and there was a way to see what dimensions are being extracted.

adobe analytics has a great feature which allowes you to mark items (segments, calculated metrics, workspaces, ...) to mark as "approved". this gives the users the confidence, that the items they use are working as expected.however, every user with access to those items (especially who is allowed to create new ones) can also change the "approved" items! and this can happen by incident, just by changing the item on the flow ... and there is no undo function requirement:add a new "role" in user managmenet which allows users to "approve items" and "change approved items"!this way the admins can create sort of "single point of approvement" (or security/confidence over data) just by establishing a goog approvement workflow. and they can be sure nobody else changes those items. knowing that, they can give users more privileges to create their own items and play around whitout the fear of any damage to "approved" items.

We run an ETL process with a scheduled Data Warehouse report as input.  When the format of this report changes between CSV and ZIP from one month to the next, it breaks our ETL process.  I would like to see an option to choose the format of the Data Warehouse report so that it is consistent every time it runs.

We have Artificial Intelligence by Adobe Sensei, and, on the other hand, a personal data feed which is often rather abandoned...Why not let Sensei post recommendations, e.g. based on Adobe Analytics data, to the feed?

I have a Fallout report and whenever I move the mouse somewhere near the steps on the left, they expand to reveal all the pages that make up each step. This can be quite annoying, especially when you have a number of pages that make up each step as the fallout report becomes too big to see the whole report. Is there a way to not have these expand on mouseover and if not, could this be considered as an enhancement to the report?

Disclaimer - Please discredit this if I am incorrect, but I do not think I am. The out of the box 'bounce rate' metric, which is calculated as 'bounces / entries' does not work when used with the product string.  the reason is that 'entries' does not work with the product string, but bounces do.   after some discussion with client care I was told the following as it relates to the entries metric.  From Help SectionEntries represents the number of times a given value is captured as the first value in a visit. Entries can occur only once per visit. However, it is not necessarily the first hit if the variable is not defined. From discussions with client carethe product string can contain multiple products.  if the entry server call contains multiple products, only the first product in the string will get credit for the entry.  all other products in the string will not have an entry associated with it. We often drive people to landing pages that contain multiple products on the page, thus

I want to be able to export/download the logs from Analytics UI. For ex: I want to export or download a log of every Custom Event from a specific reporting suite that has been published or enabled within a time period.
