Overview
Purpose
This page describes Analytics configuration using Product Setup. Product Setup is a starting point for configuring and maintaining settings in Eightfold. It serves as a go-to resource for new implementations.
Audience
New users, administrators (admins), and Eightfold employees.
Introduction
Analytics streamlines the process of keeping track of metrics from day one. These analytics are displayed through dashboards on the Insights page. The Insights page in the Admin console allows users to view, bookmark, and search for all dashboards on a single page.
Getting Started
Navigating to Analytics Product Setup
To start setting up Analytics through Product Setup:
- Navigate to Admin Console > Home > Product Setup.
- Under Analytics, click Set up.
The Configure Analytics page opens.

Configure Analytics
The Configure Analytics page organizes setup into two areas: Data Configurations and Review Health.
Update Analytics dashboard
At the top of the page, a persistent banner lets you refresh the data warehouse to reflect your latest configuration changes in the dashboard. Click Refresh data warehouse after making changes in the Configure stages or Configure metrics sections.
Note: All Analytics changes require heavy processing power. Changes can take up to 2 days to reflect in the data.
