Following the success of the Hiding Columns feature in Table, weโ€™re excited to announce a new enhancement: you can now hide Row Fields columns in Pivot Tables!

This update gives you even greater flexibility to customize and manage your data views, tailoring them to your specific needs.

For more information, please visit our public doc here: Pivot Table | Holistics Docs (4.0)

Note:

  • Currently, we only support hiding Row Field columns.
  • This is an aesthetics feature, not a security feature. Hiding a column will remove it from the userโ€™s report view and export, but the data is still accessible and not restricted in any way.

You can now temporarily hide columns that arenโ€™t relevant to your task, giving you a cleaner, more focused view of your data.

Even better, you can still sort your tables by these hidden fields, keeping your data organized without cluttering your view.

We're excited to share some improvement to how you access shared URLs in Development workspace!

Previously, when someone shared a URL to an object in their working branch, you often couldn't access it. This was because the URL still kept you in your current branch instead of redirecting to theirs.

Now, with the addition of the branch parameter in the URL, you can easily navigate to the exact working branch and location of the AML object.

That's not all! Weโ€™ve also added a new button to copy the object URL, further enhancing your experience.

Happy navigating among the branches with URLs! ๐Ÿ˜‰


We are thrilled to announce the launch of our highly-anticipated feature: โ€‹Auto Publish!

The Publish API allows you to publish your project outside of Holistics, making integrating with CI/CD workflows easier. This integration unlocks the full potential of an โ€œas-codeโ€ approach, enhancing automation and scalability. This is useful for scenarios like:

  • Auto publish the latest update after merging PR into the master branch, by integrating Publish API with the CI/CD workflow.
  • Auto publish the latest update after new changes are pushed to master branch.

Have you ever needed to calculate a formula that's not yet in the dataset? Well, let's AQL Ad-hoc Fields come to the rescue!

With AQL Ad-hoc Fields, you can define fields that stay only within your reports. Why wait for Data Teams to add that one new field to the dataset, when you can do it yourself?

Dashboards are essential for staying on top of your key metrics. Yet, they are often locked within analytics tools, separated from the daily workflows of business users. This creates extra friction for adoption.

Introducing Public Embedding capability for your Holistics Dashboards.

What's new?โ€‹

You can now embed interactive Holistics Dashboards into:

  • Blog posts, websites
  • Internal tools (Notion, Coda, wikis)
  • Any platform supporting iframes

This feature allows you to edit, update, and refresh your published content effortlessly. Now, everyone in and outside your organization has access to the most current data in the right context.

How it worksโ€‹

Under the hood, we make our Sharable Link embeddable on the web. Simply follow these steps:

  1. Go to your dashboard.
  2. Click on Share > Sharable Link.
  3. Create a new Sharable Link.
  4. Embed this link in your application.

Considerationsโ€‹

Public Embedding makes your dashboard viewable to anyone on the internet without authentication. Before publishing:

  • Ensure you have permission to share the data publicly
  • Review your organization's data-sharing policies
  • Never publish confidential or proprietary information
tip

To securely embed your content in an internal portal or website, use our Embedded Analytics. This option ensures that all permissions and data security are enforced when your users view your internal data.

โ€‹Drill-through allows viewers to dig deeper into data by navigating to related dashboards, offering detailed insights on demand. It's now available in Canvas Dashboard!

How to get startedโ€‹

Similar to Drill-through in Dashboard (Legacy), analysts can set up Drill-through in the Canvas Dashboard by enabling the Drill-through toggle in the filters.

In addition, we also introduce further configurations that give you more control over designing the drill paths. Specifically, you have two modes:

reporting-set-up-drill-through-configurations

Auto (default)

  • Automatically links all source dashboards containing widgets from the same dataset as filters on the target dashboards.
  • Disabled dashboard option: You can exclude specific dashboards from drill-through even if they contain relevant widgets. This is useful for dashboards that might technically qualify but aren't contextually relevant.

Custom

  • Allows you to specify which dashboards should be linked to target dashboards manually. Holistics will only link the custom dashboards you select to target dashboards.
  • Gives you precise control over drill-through behavior.
