🎡 Show Metrics as Rows in Pivot Table

We're excited to announce a new feature that's now available: the ability to display metrics as rows in Pivot Table.

The Problem We've Solved​

Previously, metrics could only be shown as columns in pivot tables. This made it difficult to compare multiple metrics, especially when you had many of them, as you ended up scrolling horizontally to see all your data.

The Solution​

You can now switch your pivot table layout with a simple toggle:

  • "Show as columns" (current default)
  • "Show as rows" (new option)

Benefits​

  • Compare multiple metrics naturally within a single view
  • See more of your data without constant scrolling
  • Adapt your table layout to fit your specific analysis needs

🔎 Project-wide Code Search for Lineage Tracking & Refactoring

Now you can search for anything in your entire Development workspace, with our new Code Search feature!

🎉 What Is Code Search?​

A functionality that enables you to look for any piece of code through your entire data project.

This means you can:

  • Find every file where a metric, model, data source,... is referred to
  • Plan your refactoring with confidence by seeing every affected file
  • Search by description, label, and other criteria to find exactly what you need
  • And even more to come: Replace search results with another piece of code; Filter results by object type; etc...

📝 A Few Notes​

This is an early access release of the Code Search feature. Therefore, you may notice some rough edges in the design and experience. We’d love to hear your feedback, as it will help us polish this feature and directly shape the final version.
