TapData
Exposed date filter for data sources
We have exposed date filters to specific data sources when building channels (see image below). Now, if users need to select a specific date range for data in their channel, they can do so. This is particularly helpful for users who want to have a specific cutover date when merging data from multiple data sources.
TapAnalytics
No longer aggregate goals with the same name but different IDs
Different goals, with identical names, are no longer aggregated in a data widget when grouped by goal name. This improves usability for data widgets that have goals with the same name.
TapReports
Improved geographic maps in widgets
We have added advanced geo-mapping to create more compelling mapping graphics, detailed boundaries, and topographical imagery. With this new feature, users have the ability to show campaign results by zip code, DMA, congressional district, and other boundaries.
This new feature is currently in beta on a very limited release and will soon be available as an add-on solution for a nominal monthly fee. If you are interested in joining this beta, please contact your CSM or customercare@tapclicks.com for more information.
Added conditional plotting
We have added the ability for users to define multiple rules and apply them to specific widgets or data ranges. This new feature provides conditional plot capabilities in TapClicks dashboards and widgets. The conditional plotting enables users to dynamically format and color code their data based on specified conditions. which means users can now tailor the formatting for each metric or KPI.
This new capability enhances the visual representation of marketing data, which results in readers being able to quickly identify trends, anomalies, and performance thresholds.
