Create a classification set
You can use the Classification set manager to create a classification set.
Components > Classification sets > Sets > Add
When creating a classification set, the following fields are available.
-
Name: A text field used to identify the classification set. This field cannot be edited upon creation, but can be renamed later.
-
Column Name: The name of the first classification dimension that you want to create. This field is the dimension name used in Analysis Workspace, and the column name when exporting classification data. You can add more column names after the classification set is created.
-
Type: Radio buttons that indicate the type of classification.
- Primary: Apply to dimensions collected in Analytics. They are a way to group (classify) granular dimension values into more meaningful levels of data. For example, you might want to group internal search keywords into internal search categories, to better understand themes in your search data.
- Lookup: Commonly referred to as child or subclassifications, a lookup table is a classification of a primary classification. It is metadata about a classification value, rather than the original dimension. For example, the Product variable might have a primary classification of 鈥楥olor code鈥�. A lookup table of 鈥楥olor name鈥� could then be attached to 鈥楥olor code鈥� to further explain what each code means.
-
Subscriptions The report suites and dimensions that this classification set applies to. You can add multiple report suite and dimension combinations to a classification set.
If a classification set exists for a given report suite + variable, the classification is added to the schema instead. A given report suite + variable combination cannot belong to multiple classification sets.
