Analysis Workspace overview
Analysis Workspace allows you to quickly build analyses to gather insights and then share those insights with others. Using the drag-and-drop browser interface, you can craft your analysis, add visualizations to bring data to life, curate a dataset, and share and schedule projects with anyone you choose.
The following video provides a brief overview with examples of what is possible.

Components
Components in Analysis Workspace consist of the following:
-
Dimensions

Date ranges
To learn more about each of these component types, see Components overview.
Each of these component types can be added to a visualization (such as a Freeform table) to start answering your business questions.
After you understand component terminology, you can drag components into visualizations (including Freeform tables) to build your analysis.
Data Dictionary
The Data Dictionary in Analysis Workspace helps both users and administrators keep track of and better understand the components in their Analytics environment.
To learn more about the Data Dictionary, see Data Dictionary overview.
Data Sources
Synchronizing visualizations lets you control which data table or data source corresponds to a visualization. Here is more information on how you can manage data sources.
