What's new in 
BlackBerry Analytics

July 2020

Developers can integrate 
BlackBerry Analytics
 with custom 
BlackBerry Dynamics
 apps to automatically record and send events to the 
BlackBerry Analytics
 portal. Previously, developers had to integrate a separate 
BlackBerry Analytics
 SDK with their 
BlackBerry Dynamics
 apps. In the 
BlackBerry Dynamics SDK
 version 8.0 and later, 
BlackBerry Analytics
 and 
BlackBerry Persona
 functionality are now fully integrated with the 
BlackBerry Dynamics SDK
. 
For more information about integrating 
BlackBerry Analytics
 and 
BlackBerry Persona
 functionality with a custom 
BlackBerry Dynamics
 app, see the BlackBerry Dynamics SDK Development Guide.
Developers can also use the 
BlackBerry Analytics
 REST API to retrieve metrics programmatically, for the purpose of creating custom reports. For more information, see the BlackBerry Dynamics SDK Development Guide.

Portal version 3.0

  • Bug fixes
    : This release includes bug fixes.

Portal version 1.6

  • Enhancement for user correlation
    : Previously, if you enabled the user correlation feature in the 
    BlackBerry Analytics
     portal, you could only associate the container ID with a specific user using the Good Control SOAP getUser API. If you used this compatible API with the 
    BlackBerry Web Services
     for 
    BlackBerry UEM
    , it did not support the container ID. In the 
    BlackBerry Web Services
     for 
    BlackBerry UEM
     12.9 or later, you can now use the getUser API to associate a container ID with a specific user.

Portal version 1.5

  • Support for BlackBerry Team Connect
    : This release adds support for receiving data from 
    BlackBerry Team Connect
     and providing user, device, and feature usage statistics in the 
    BlackBerry Analytics
     portal.

Portal version 1.4

  • Turn on user correlation
    : By default, the data collected by 
    BlackBerry Analytics
     is anonymous and is not linked to specific user accounts. If you want to correlate data with the activity of user accounts, you can turn on user correlation in the 
    BlackBerry Analytics
     portal. When this option is enabled, all user generated analytics data will include a 
    BlackBerry Analytics
     container ID that serves as a unique identifier for user accounts. You can use the getUser API supported by the Good Control SOAP APIs in standalone 
    Good Control
     to retrieve the user’s email address using the container ID. For more information, see the getting started blog for making web services calls to Good Control. Equivalent support using the BlackBerry Web Services SOAP API for 
    BlackBerry UEM
     is pending in an upcoming release.
  • View data for feature usage
    : The 
    BlackBerry Analytics
     dashboard now allows you to view more data about the use of specific app features.
  • BlackBerry Analytics SDK 1.2 enhancement
    : The 
    BlackBerry Analytics SDK
     now sends the SDK version as part of the payload.
