Final answer:

New views in a website analytics platform will not show historical data; they only report data from the day they are created and do not include data from earlier.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question pertains to how data is reported in new views within a website analytics platform. The correct answer to the question is False: Views will report data from the day they are created. This means that when you create a new view under a property, it does not inherit the historical data from the already existing views. Therefore, any data prior to the creation of the new view will not be visible in that view. The views are essentially filters that begin collecting data based on the parameters set at the time of their creation. If you need to analyze historical data, you must use the original view that was collecting data during that time period.
