Calls by DID Migration Guide
Overview
In our efforts to consolidate and modernize Analytics for 8x8 Work, we are introducing new Calls by DID reporting capabilities on February 13th, 2024.
The new report will be available through the existing Extension Summary Report under a new Group by DID section.
IMPORTANT:
- Historical data will not be made available in the new dashboard at the time of release.
- All call data collected prior to February 13, 2024 will be available in the legacy Calls by DID report until April 2, 2024, when the report will be decommissioned.
We advise customers to download legacy report information as soon as possible. After the decommission date, the legacy Calls by DID report information will no longer be available.
Applies To
- Analytics for 8x8 Work
Who can access the new report?
Any user with access to Analytics for 8x8 Work will be able to access the new report.
Where are the old and new reporting options available?
The reporting options are located in the following areas of Analytics for 8x8 Work:
| Old Report | New Report |

Which metrics are available in the reports?
The existing Extension Summary report has a new DID column available. This is the only new column added to the Extension Summary Report.
Also:
- Existing report columns remain as is (without changes).
- For Outbound metrics, the values displayed are 0, since DID is not applicable for outbound calls.
- The DID column can be added to or removed from the table. It is visible by default when the data is grouped by DID, and as an option when the information is grouped by extension.
The metrics highlighted in the NEW report column below already exist in the Extension Summary Report. Not all of these highlighted metrics are visible by default.
