    Summary of Content Not Migrated or Migrated in Compatibility Mode

    The migration to the new Platform Analytics experience generally succeeds, but certain dashboard content may not be fully migrated or may be placed in compatibility mode as embedded content (iframes). This affects some visualizations, filters, and configurations, particularly those that are incompatible with the new platform. The Migration Center aids in updating incompatible content during releases.

    Key Features

    • Non-Migrated Configurations: Generic dashboard configurations, such as dashboard groups, widget header colors, and various filter types, are not migrated.
    • Visualization Limitations: Certain visual elements like export options for charts, report drilldowns, and specific scorecard elements are not transitioned fully.
    • Compatibility Mode: Original dashboard artifacts are retained in iframes, which may lead to performance issues and limited functionality for custom interactive filters.
    • Partially Migrated Features: Some features, like report drilldowns and sorting options, are available in compatibility mode under specific conditions.

    Key Outcomes

    Customers can expect that while most content will migrate properly, they may encounter limitations with certain configurations and visualizations. It is crucial to be aware of which elements are affected to manage performance effectively and to utilize the Migration Center for updates on incompatible content as they become available. If critical functionalities are required that do not perform well in compatibility mode, consider reverting to the Core UI version.

    Most dashboard content is migrated to the new Platform Analytics experience. However, some visualizations, aspects of visualizations, and filters are inserted in the migrated dashboard as embedded content (iframes), also known as compatibility mode. Some configurations are not migrated at all.

    Note:
    If you have already migrated to Platform Analytics experience, the Migration Center automatically migrates any previously incompatible content that is now compatible when you upgrade releases.

    • Dashboard groups
    • Widget header and title colors
    • Widget title alignment

    • Restriction of dashboard access to specific roles.
    • Data tables under data visualizations
    Indicators/Breakdown Scorecard elements that are not migrated:
    • Show Distribution

    Compatibility mode migrations

    Migration in compatibility mode means that the original artifacts are inserted into the migrated dashboard in iframes. The original content is not changed or moved.

    All custom interactive filters, custom content blocks, gauges, and gadgets are migrated in compatibility mode, as iframes.

    All other content that is not a Performance Analytics widget, report, or interactive filter is migrated in compatibility mode, as iframes.

    Note:
    Dashboards with visualizations or other widgets migrated in compatibility mode may experience performance issues.

    Custom interactive filters are migrated in compatibility mode, but may not work on the migrated dashboard. If the custom functionality is required, roll back the dashboard back to the Core UI version.
