User Groups When Sharing​

When sharing a dashboard or project, you now have access to user groups in addition to individual users. This makes it even easier to share your project with a larger number of users at once.

Export Metadata Headers​

When scheduling reports, you can now choose to include a metadata header in your file. The header will contain information about the applied filters, time range, and the dashboard being exported. This is useful for tracking the state of the dashboard at the time the report was created. The same feature will soon be available for ad-hoc exports as well!

Searching in Pivot Pills​

You can now search directly within the row and column add dialogs. It was already fast to create a table, now it's even faster!

Filter Pills for Local Filters in Canvas​

When you add a local filter to a widget in a Canvas dashboard, it will now be represented as an inline filter pill inside the widget. This helps end users understand which filters are active for that specific widget.

Support for AWS STS Authentication in Connectors​

We now support AWS STS authentication for our DuckDB and S3 connectors. You can find more details in our documentation.

Cell Inspector for Long Dimension Values​

Sometimes, long dimension values are truncated in leaderboards and tables. You can now press the spacebar to toggle the Cell Inspector, which reveals the full value of the cell. This is especially useful when dealing with JSON values or log messages.
