Analytics apps
Organize reusable analytics into product-facing application experiences.
Analytics Apps organize analytics definitions into a higher-level product experience. The console provides list and detail surfaces under Analytics → Apps.
Relationship to Analytics APIs
An app does not replace an Analytics API or create a separate execution engine. Analytics APIs remain the governed query contracts. Apps arrange and present those contracts for a use case.
Use an app when
- several analytics belong to one customer-facing area;
- a dashboard or portal needs a stable collection of views;
- product teams need to reason about an experience rather than isolated queries.
Access remains explicit
Consumers still need valid query access to the underlying published analytics. Grouping analytics into an app must not broaden a query client's allowlist automatically.
Design guidance
Give each app one clear job. Use consistent time filters and compatible output naming across its analytics. Prefer a small set of meaningful views over a large collection of near-duplicate charts.
