Demos

Lots of CSV Upload and Spreadsheets, Heatmaps, Color Promotion, and Lots More

February 28, 2025

  • We demos three use cases for the open spreadsheet UI. We're excited to see more of these use cases where folks had no other choice but to disconnect from the database. Now everything can wire up to live data and filters!

  • Lots more work on CSVs, Input Tables, and Spreadsheets:

    • The launch of CSV pushdown to the warehouse. Works across every dialect Omni supports.

    • The complement to CSV Uploads - now layering more data into an analysis is as easy as copy paste or a writing data to a spreadsheet. Lots of ongoing work here, but huge new use cases open up instantly.

    • We show off some in-progress work to streamline all the different approaches to analysis - curated datasets (topics), single-table, CSV input, blank spreadsheets, AI, or SQL. Every company has all of these use cases - let's make sure we can handle them in one place.

  • Plenty of vis, dashboards, and content work:

    • We're still working on lifting the full visualization editing experience to the dashboard. No more bouncing back and forth to the workbook unless you want to.

    • The final step in our color work, now all of the promotion and workflow you have on dimensional coloring is available on measures as well. Easy to tune one-off, dashboard level, or across the entire Omni environment. Elegance in layers.

    • Now you can complement region and point maps with our new heatmaps. We added a utility to understand how time filters compile, no more guesswork in the result set for inclusive/exclusive

    • We tuned up the navigation experience to support deeply nested folders - just making it a bit easier to get to everything in a click or two.

  • Tools for developers:

    • Now topics are rename-able from the Omni IDE with relabeling or copy-paste. We improved the content validator load experience and made sure it doesn't time out even with the most complex models.

    • Little fresh code to allow wildcard matching in access filters for more flexible data management.

  • And more

    • We added a new tab to our analytics dashboard to understand all the fresh product you can opt in to (thanks to our new input tables). As always, let us know if anything looks interesting to try.

    • We dolled up the website and tried to make it a little easier to understand who we are and all the use cases we can support.

More Ways to Start an Analysis

We show off some in-progress work to streamline all the different approaches to analysis - curated datasets (topics), single-table, CSV input, blank spreadsheets, AI, or SQL. Every company has all of these use cases - let's make sure we can handle them in one place.
