Brazil Early Availability

Data snapshots indicators now support bucket groups and calculated date fields.

What's new

Use bucket groups to break down Data Snapshots indicators by continuous data
To filter Data snapshots scores by a numeric field on the source table, you can now map a bucket group to that field. The bucket group splits that field into value ranges.
Use calculated fields to break down Data Snapshots indicators by date
Create calculated fields to show the length of time that has passed between two date/time fields on a Data snapshots source table. For example, calculate Age as the difference between Created and Updated.

What's changed

Create indicators on Workflow Data Fabric tables
Create classic automated indicators on external data via Workflow Data Fabric. Use Workflow Data Fabric tables in indicator sources just as you would any other facts tables.
Intraday scores supported on indicators with Data snapshots enabled
If you enable Data snapshots on an existing classic automated indicator, you can collect intraday scores on the data snapshots indicator.
Manage and troubleshoot your Data snapshots jobs more easily
You now are provided with new estimates and more log information:
  • Time estimates before a job starts
  • Progress percentages for first-day mining, changes loader, and delta mining jobs
  • Logs include the next scheduled run timestamp after incremental job completion
