24.1.02

Collect metrics data from Google Analytics

Collect metrics data from the funnel exploration report in Google Analytics. 

Important

The capability to collect metrics data is available only through an on-premises deployment of BMC Helix Intelligent Integrations.

For more information, see Integrating-with-Google-Analytics.


Updates to the Catchpoint policy

The behavior of the Close Old Catchpoint Events - BMC Helix Intelligent Integrations policy is updated due to the updates in the Catchpoint version Cheetah:

  • The policy creates a new event for each node on which a test was performed and the test triggered the Critical level alert in Catchpoint. After the new event is created, the policy closes and updates the old event with notes containing the event ID of the new event, node ID, and test ID.
  • If an incoming event contains the Improved level alert triggered by a test on any of the nodes, the policy closes all the old events generated for all the nodes on which the test was performed.

For more information, see Event-deduplication-suppression-and-closure-for-reducing-event-noise.
