Adobe Analytics Connector: No classification based dimensions

[Anonymous]

Hi,

When browsing through the available list of dimensions to add our Adobe Classification based dimensions do not appear as an option. 

Does the connector not support classification based dimensions?

Thanks,
Michelle

The Adobe Analytics connector does not support Classifications.  You can upvote the idea here: https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/32957971-add-classification-level...

Hi, do you know if there's a workaround for this? It does not look like this idea is going to get implemented any time soon and we desperately need it.

You can get classifications from the adobe analytics 1.4 API. I can post some info tm.

Oops, I forgot to post more info.  I think I thought I had this figured out, but when went to look actually didn't.

There's an end-point to CreateExport and then GetExport, you would have to use these two to download classifications.

Since the classifications I needed do not change often, I think I decided to just export from the Adobe Analytics UI instead.

To get around classifications not being available from the connector, I export them and load them into Power BI dataflows for people to use in their Power BI reports.

hi, @Anonymous 

See if you can talk with an admin in your organization to see if they have all dimensions/metrics available (or talk them into giving you admin rights temporarily).

If you still have the problem, maybe you could ask in Adobe analytics forum:
