ETL Freshness, Dynamic dbt schema switching, Period-Over-Period, & more

ETL Freshness Update Hooks
A nice first-step towards the vision of more inter-connected ETL, transformation, and BI. Now you can kick-off ETL updates in Fivetran directly from the dashboard. This will be tied into dbt and other services down the line for transformation, but now developers can request fresh data directly from the dashboard.
Dynamic dbt Schemas
Schema SwitchingDynamic dbt schemas: Often developers are working across one or many dbt schemas for new transformations. Omni can now gracefully move developers between schemas in branches to test changes on content or topics.
Period-Over-Period
More period-over-period work, this time polishing the front-end user experience to select dynamic time offsets.
Dynamic SQL Templating
Templated SQL for ad hoc use cases where users may want to map raw SQL to filter blocks.
Vanity Embed URLs
No More Third Party CookiesVanity embed URLs: now the embedded Omni app can share the same URL structure as the parent app, side-stepping third party cookies for a cleaner end-user experience.
In-App Helpers
Empty Schemas, Slack API Downtime, New TopicsPolish throughout the app for understanding totals (ungrouped aggregates) and dashboard filter mapping (no more long lists); also lots of helper text to get you unstuck (schema permissions blocking data to Omni, Slack downtime, etc).
