Product updates

New functionalities:

• New Interactive Filtering action on cards. One of the most requested features is now available in this update: the ability to configure Interactive Filtering actions, also known as Cross Filtering. This allows for faster, interactive analysis by clicking/tapping on card elements (for example, bars in charts, values ​​in tables, or points on maps) to filter that value in other cards on the same page. The possibilities are endless and depend on how each panel is configured. Remember that Biuwer is very flexible and doesn't impose automatic filters by default, like some other tools do. We’ve prepared a quick example showing how to configure an Interactive Filtering action and its visual behavior when interacting with it. The interactive filters area in the upper left corner is particularly noteworthy, displaying the filters currently being applied. You can remove one or all of these interactive filters.

• New Rich Text card. This is a major new feature that allows advanced users to create rich content by including images uploaded from their own computer, applying various formatting options, and translating the content into multiple languages. The possibilities are vast, as you can also embed YouTube videos, Excalidraw diagrams, and more.

• New Sankey charts. This update includes a new type of chart: Sankey charts. These powerful tools visualize the flow of data, energy, money, users, or any other resource transferred between different stages, categories, or processes. Key features include the visualization of flows and ratios between categories. Advantages include visual clarity in complex flows for intuitive comparison of magnitudes and effective communication. Horizontal and vertical versions are available, along with any number of stages (dimensions), and customization options for labels, tooltips, colors, and more.

• Ability to activate/deactivate a filter. This new option within the filter system allows you to easily select which filters should be applied. It's especially useful for avoiding having to reconfigure filters while testing data panels or when temporary changes need to be addressed.

• Logarithmic scales in charts. Logarithmic scales are used in charts to represent data spanning very wide ranges of values (for example, from 1 to 1,000,000) in a more manageable and visually understandable way. Instead of increasing linearly (1, 2, 3, 4…), a logarithmic scale increases in powers of 10: 1, 10, 100, 1,000, etc., which achieves the effect of “compressing” the values and making it easier to visualize very different values.

• Limits on the number of records retrieved per query and values displayed in filters. As part of a continuous improvement process for the Biuwer platform's performance, all plans now include a maximum number of records retrieved per query and a maximum number of values displayed for each filter. These limits are broad, ranging from 50,000 to 500,000 records per query and from 5,000 to 50,000 values per filter. However, if you need to configure higher limits for your organization, please contact support for assistance.

Improvements:

• Improvements to the multilingual system. The language switching process for displaying both the interface and content/data in other languages ​​has been visually enhanced. Multilingual capability has also been added to rich text cards.

• Several improvements have been made to table cards, including the ability to configure custom styles for Totals and Subtotals in both vertical and cross-tabulation tables. The row number is now displayed in tables with applied groupings, and there's a new option to show cell values across multiple lines (useful when dealing with long texts and you want to display the entire content). Finally, the initial state has been added to value groupings, starting with "Closed" by default.

• Improved CSV and Excel file uploads. Detection, parsing, and validation of date fields have been enhanced, and more formats (standard and non-standard) have been added.

• The Google Ads connector API has been updated.

Bug fixes:

• Visual adjustment of the filter area when closed.

• Fixed error when duplicating rich text cards.

• Fixed issue in the REST API connector when requesting subsequent data pages.

• Fixed error in custom sorting.

• Fixed the functionality of interactive filters in tables with dates and booleans.

• Adjusted spacing and sizes in Donut charts.

• Other minor fixes.
