Learning Einstein Analytics

Setting Up Einstein Analytics

Before starting to build the dashboard, lenses, and applications, it is important to set your organization and define user types so that they are available to use. We discussed concepts and terminologies and the importance of Einstein Analytics in the previous chapter. This chapter walks you through simple steps that will set up your organization to use the Einstein Analytics platform.  

In this chapter, we will cover the following topics: 

  • The Einstein Analytics platform setup process
  • Creating permission sets and user licenses 
  • Assigning permission set to users
  • Einstein limits

The Einstein platform setup process

Now that you have logged in to your special developer edition for Einstein Analytics, let's set up your organization for Einstein. Following are the basic steps to set up Einstein Analytics:

  1. Enable Einstein Analytics for your organization
  2. Define the main Einstein user types
  3. Create permission sets to group related user permissions according to the needs of each user type

In this chapter, you learned about the setup process of Analytics, and you also saw how to enable Analytics for your organization. We also covered how to create permission sets and define user types. The user types can change and increase depending on your requirement. Once you assign a permission set to a user, the permission set license is auto-assigned to that user.

In the next chapter, we will cover designing, creating, and scheduling dataflows.

We will also see what a dashboard is and the types of dashboard in Einstein Analytics. We will explore the use of pre-built dashboard templates and create a Wave Designer Dashboard using the Summary Dashboard template.

Author seems to be totally confused about the topic they are writing about. There is EA platform then there are EA applications (Sales Analytics, Service Analytics, other partner apps) then Einstein Discovery (ED) that is a sister product for ad-hoc ML and then there is core Einstein platform (not part of EA, that includes image recognition, sentiment analytics, etc, and has nothing to do with EA). It is amazing that anyone can pass as an expert these days. Unfortunately, books like these end up creating confusion and frankly do a disservice to an amazing analytics platform that is Salesforce Einstein Analytics and Salesforce Einstein.
