Birst Classic Administration

Important: This topic references the Flash user interface.

Adobe plans to end-of-life Flash in 2020. Support for Flash will be fully removed from most browsers in December 2020, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Internet Explorer. In response, Birst will no longer support the Flash user interface following the 2020 deprecation.
