Lots of API, Vis Series Coloring, AI Query Summary, Model Usage Analytics, and Lots of Polish and Pretty Vis
January 17, 2025
Bunch of new APIs we're launching for content, plus some conversation about our prioritization for new APIs (TLDR; ask us if you need APIs).
Lifting all of the color modeling work into the UI - now dimensional colors can be set explicitly in the UI (think completed = green, returned = red). Final step will be promotion to the model, for end-to-end color controls with all of the governance depth you could want for later.
Early look at a new vis type that will summarize query results into a succinct text summary, with small hook for prompt tuning. This will launch with our new AI controls for data sharing.
The first step towards getting the full picture of how all of the content in the systems (dashboards, workbooks, etc) is using topics, views, and fields in the data model. This will be the core building block for maintaining and improving the system as the database and data models evolve.
Sarah shows off some beautiful new KPI tiles for displaying a series of metrics and orienting the current metric vis-a-vis a historical distribution. Gives a nice flavor for the possibilities with our KPI visualizations.
We rebuilt our custom visualization templates to more easily wire to diverse data tables (ie. only plug series in in one place). This will underpin the work to then present front end controls on custom visualizations. (Plus a quick demo of our cross-filter vis)
A smorgasbord of odds and ends to make the experience better. Bit more work on nested folders and navigation, clearer filter icons in the workbook when views and groups are collapsed, new /analytics quick URL builder from any dashboard, and longer vanity URLs for dashboards to help a couple customers with longer dashboard names.
In anticipation of bringing some beta testers into the open spreadsheet experience, we're making sure styles feel aligned with the rest of the Omni app (colors, fonts, borders, etc).
Some silent work in the background, but continuing to make it easier to build and support more visualization controls in the future
Bit of refinement to the model and admin process with dynamic schemas.
New facet in the content validator to filter between public and private content.
More API
Bunch of new APIs we're launching for content, plus some conversation about our prioritization for new APIs (TLDR; ask us if you need APIs).
Series Coloring in UI
Lifting all of the color modeling work into the UI - now dimensional colors can be set explicitly in the UI (think completed = green, returned = red). Final step will be promotion to the model, for end-to-end color controls with all of the governance depth you could want for later.
AI Query Summarization Visualization
Early look at a new vis type that will summarize query results into a succinct text summary, with small hook for prompt tuning. This will launch with our new AI controls for data sharing.
Topic Usage Analytics
The first step towards getting the full picture of how all of the content in the systems (dashboards, workbooks, etc) is using topics, views, and fields in the data model. This will be the core building block for maintaining and improving the system as the database and data models evolve.
Ridiculously Pretty KPI Tiles

Templated Custom Vis
We rebuilt our custom visualization templates to more easily wire to diverse data tables (ie. only plug series in in one place). This will underpin the work to then present front end controls on custom visualizations. (Plus a quick demo of our cross-filter vis)
Workbook Grab Bag
A smorgasbord of odds and ends to make the experience better. Bit more work on nested folders and navigation, clearer filter icons in the workbook when views and groups are collapsed, new /analytics quick URL builder from any dashboard, and longer vanity URLs for dashboards to help a couple customers with longer dashboard names.
Spreadsheet Styling
In anticipation of bringing some beta testers into the open spreadsheet experience, we're making sure styles feel aligned with the rest of the Omni app (colors, fonts, borders, etc).
More Work on Vis Backend
Some silent work in the background, but continuing to make it easier to build and support more visualization controls in the future
Better Schema Model Handling with Dynamic Connections
Bit of refinement to the model and admin process with dynamic schemas.
Content Validator Faceting
New facet in the content validator to filter between public and private content.
