With S3 delivery, you can house your data files and read them into Hadoop directly (assuming you use AWS) this means you don’t necessarily have to do anything with the data until you need it, then you can fire up an EMR job to get your data. There are several things I love about this setup:ĭelivery via SFTP and S3: For the longest time, FTP was the only choice, which disappointed security-minded folks who wanted SFTP. On the right side, you provide your server information, FTP/SFTP or Amazon S3. On the left, you give your data feed a name, choose the report suite(s) you want the data feed for, pick the delivery granularity, then choose the start/end date or choose ‘continuous’ for indefinite future delivery. I find these two panels fairly self-explanatory. The top half of the page looks as follows: Landing the Files via FTP/SFTP/S3Īfter clicking ‘Admin -> Data Feeds’ in the Adobe Analytics Admin menu/panel, you should see an interface similar to the following:Īfter clicking the “(+) Add” button, you will be brought to a page with three parts: Feed Information, Delivery Location and Data Column Definitions. Note this post is not meant to be a substitute to the official documentation Adobe provides detailed information about the entire process in their Help section.

In this post, I will briefly highlight how to set up an Analytics Data Feed from inside Adobe Analytics and give my impressions of the tool (as it exists at the time of writing). While the Analytics Data Feed is nowhere as easy to use as the Adobe UI, Report Builder, Analytics Workspace or even RSiteCatalyst, the hardest part for me when I was a digital analytics consultant was just obtaining the files in the first place (to say nothing of restarting a failed feed)! Luckily, Adobe has now built an interface accessible by any Adobe Analytics admin, removing the need for ClientCare to set up and maintain feeds. The Analytics Data Feed is an invaluable tool for moving beyond aggregate-level reporting information about your customers to really in-depth, customer-level analytics. I’ve written several posts about the Adobe Analytics Analytics (née Clickstream) Data Feed (links: 1, 2, 3) over the past several years. Even better, a fix via pull request will ensure that your bug will be addressed in a timely manner and for the benefit to others in the community.

I encourage all users of the software to continue reporting bugs via GitHub issues, and especially if you can provide a working code example. In the past month, the number of GitHub issues submitted has increased dramatically, a good problem to have!
#FIREWALL BUILDER SKYNET UPGRADE#
Users should upgrade directly to version 1.4.12 as the releases are cumulative in nature. I released version 1.4.12 of RSiteCatalyst before I wrote the release notes for version 1.4.11, so this blog post will treat both releases as one.
