Improvements and fixes for the Marketing Cloud ID service (v1.5.3).
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| COPPA Support |
The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) prohibits the online collection of personal information from children under 13 years old without verifiable parental consent. Customers concerned about COPPA can add an optional variable to their Marketing Cloud ID service code that prevents it from setting cookies in the third-party domain of a browser. Applies to version 1.5.3 or greater. See COPPA Support in the Marketing Cloud ID Service for more information. |
Classification Processing Notice
During November and December, Adobe anticipates a high volume of classification uploads across our customer base. We will process these uploads as quickly as possible, but it is possible that processing times will be longer than usual. For tips on minimizing processing time, see Classification Processing Time.
Important
In January 2016, Adobe will end support for Internet Explorer 9 and 10. You can continue to use earlier browser versions, but Adobe will not test against earlier versions, and will not fix any issues with them. Your browser experience may degrade over time, and you run a security risk by using such a browser. Adobe strongly recommends that you upgrade to a supported version.
Important
In January 2016, Adobe will disable SSL v3 protocol support for security purposes, and end SSL v3 traffic for Adobe Analytics data collection. Adobe will be reaching out to customers that are significantly impacted by this action soon.
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Data Warehouse: Breakdown by segment | Added support for Breakdown by Segment . In addition to breakdowns by Standard (Items) and Custom (Insights), you can now break down reports by segments. When you select the Segments tab, the list will be populated with the same set of segments offered in the Available segments drop-down list. Line items with membership in the segment will report a value of “1”, and items outside of the segment report “0”. (AN-100346) |
| Data Warehouse: Search box in breakdown and metrics selectors | Added a search box to both the breakdown and metric selectors. It is now easier to find a specific variable or segment, since you no longer need to scroll through the whole list. |
| Data Warehouse: Custom incrementer events in segment definitions | Previously, segment rules evaluating custom event totals were supported only for “counter" events. Now, segment rules evaluating event totals handle “incrementer" events as well. (AN-113168) |
| AVRO data feed for Data Workbench | The AVRO data feed is a new log format for Data Workbench that lets you access all the new variable types and features, including updated evars, custom events, and solution variables-and provides internal automation to seamlessly modify the data feed for future updates. The AVRO data feed and other updates were added to the Data Workbench 6.51 release. |

New Features

Create a new Photo Album only feed to view comments on albums and photos within albums. Filter and view the performance of your photo album objects within Post Analytics and export. |

| Twitter direct messages | You can now send direct messages that contain up to 10,000 characters instead of the previous limit of 140 characters. |
| LinkedIn API upgrade | LinkedIn has standardized its publishing APIs. As a result, you must upgrade your LinkedIn accounts to let you take advantage of new functionality in future releases of Adobe Social . You will see a pop-up message instructing you to upgrade your LinkedIn accounts once a week until you have upgraded all of your accounts. |
