AI Filters

Gustav Staprans, Steven Talbot · Ai Filters Filtering can be hard - not knowing which field to pick or how to express a complex time grain. Filter AI means filter is as easy as a text box. Work to do here still, but the potential is enormous for changing the way end users build and refine queries.

​

Commissions app

Arielle Strong, Richard Czechowski, Kimberly DelSignore, Brian Frantz · Spreadsheets Dashboards This is the first app bringing together our new spreadsheet functionality alongside core BI use cases to build a real-time, permissioned commissions payment tool for sales ops. Now sellers can see all quoted sales alongside payment structure, with infinite flexibility to control payout structures or bonus via the breadth of a spreadsheet. No more importing and exporting and munging - now everything can be tied back to the sources of truth and update in real time.

​

Dashboard performance reports

Nancy Chacko, Nate Agrin · Administration Dashboards Modern data teams operate like product teams, tools are delivered, but then need to be monitored and tuned, especially for performance. This is an early look at rich new tools for understanding performance (querying, data movement, rendering, etc) and finding hotspots to improve the end user experience.

​

Time filters that explain themselves

Cathy Lennon, TJ Banghart · Filters Workbook Dashboards Time is hard. Everyone in BI has experienced it. Our new filter helper explains what time filters mean in plain language to make it easier.

​

User attributes page

Chris Merrick, Rob Miller · Administration A new per-user page to easily expose all the user attributes for the given account. This makes cloning attributes simple and obviates understanding the full permission set for a given user (sorry IT issues mean no sound on this one).

​

Themes - now with chart palettes and dark mode control

Luke Bowerman, Alisa Tatarinova We’re still improving themes, now with control for dark/light mode explicitly, and themes that can be tied to visualization color palettes for complete cohesion and control of the visuals.

​

Docs AI

James Ostergaard, Jiro Wiseman · Docs Ai We’ve taught Blobby how to work with docs. Now users can ask for help building queries or just generally using the application and Blobby can point to resources to get folks unblocked quickly.

​

Unlimited downloading

Jonathan Swenson, Meredith Dodge · Scheduling More work on long-running queries to enable ~unlimited downloads via Omni.

​

New demos

Elizabeth Schuler, Adrien Beaufils, Jess Gaines, Will Savage We show off a few of the new demo data sets and dashboards

​

AI on AWS Bedrock

Chris Merrick · Ai We’ve begun porting some of the AI workflows to Bedrock in AWS (Claude for the curious). This means data never leaves the AWS envelope, reducing sub-processors and app surface area. This also means we can make the deeper AI functionalities available to anyone with more strict security postures (sorry IT issues mean no sound on this one).

​

Dash tiles swap to top or bottom

Eli Cohen, Elliot Park New shortcuts for bulk dash layout changes - now tiles can zip to the top or bottom without the drag-rearrange challenges on longer dashboards.

​

Pretty markdown dash

Sarah Waterson · Dashboards Visualization Sarah again shows off the possibilities for building pixel perfect, rich layouts in Omni using modern web techniques. Next step will be markdown templates to easily import these approaches.

​

New login page

Jared Hardy · Design We prettied up the login page, making sure the app is staying as fresh as all the new code we’re shipping.

​

Model import APIs

Conrad Slimmer, Corey Ruderman · Administration Modeling New APIs for importing Omni models across environments or connections. Important tools for the most complex deployments.

​

Docs changelog in Omni

Erin Cochran · Docs Some new tools (first internal, later external) to share out more detail on fresh code landing in product.
