Rill 0.56 - Favicons, API for embedded dashboards, query data from the CLI

Β· 3 min read
note

⚑ Rill Developer is a tool that makes it effortless to transform your datasets with SQL and create fast, exploratory dashboards. Rill Cloud can then help to enable shared collaboration at scale.

To try out Rill Developer, check out these instructions and join us over on Discord to meet the team behind the product as well as other users. In addition, once you have a project set up in Rill Developer, you can then deploy the project and collaborate with others / invite your team members by logging into Rill Cloud!

Use your own favicon​

Building on the previous release, which allowed you to upload a custom logo, you can now also upload a custom favicon to fully brand Rill as your own internal tool.

API for embedded dashboards​

There is now an API to programmatically interact with your embedded dashboards! You can listen for state changes, set and get state on demand, and unlock a wide range of possibilitiesβ€”such as controlling the filter state from your own page and providing users with a predefined set of filters or views that can be managed dynamically.

Query data from the CLI​

Admins can now query data inside Rill directly from the CLI. Integrate it into your CI pipelines, write tests, or run ad-hoc queriesβ€”the sky's the limit!
