But your data team still has to clean up the dashboards no one opens anymore and the charts that broke last week. This week, we launched Autopilot - an agent that takes care of all your dashboard upkeep so you can keep building. ๐Ÿค– Automate dashboard maintenance with Autopilot Autopilot flags stale content, repairs broken charts, and retires dashboards no one's using anymore. You can set it to run overnight (or on a custom schedule), and wake up to a report of what it found and did. Autopilot is now generally available. Open your project's home page to switch it on. ๐Ÿ“– Read how Autopilot works โ†’ ๐Ÿ“บ Watch the launch video โ†’ ๐ŸŽ“ Create custom skills for Lightdash agents You can now create skills for your Lightdash agents, so it becomes faster and easier for you to carry out repeat processes. Add a skill in agent settings, then type / in any thread to run it. โšก๏ธ Set up your first skill โ†’ ๐Ÿช† Explore nested data without flattening it first If you're on BigQuery or Databricks, you can now explore nested and repeated columns directly in Lightdash, without needing to restructure your data first. When you reference a nested field by its full path in your YAML, it appears as a regular dimension. Repeated columns get their own group in Explore, with one row per array element. And we'll warn you if combining separate arrays could inflate your metrics. ๐Ÿชน See how nested and repeated columns work โ†’ ๐Ÿงฎ By the numbers In the last two weeks, we've also shipped: ๐Ÿš€ 53 new releases ๐Ÿ’…๐Ÿผ 137 enhancements ๐Ÿž 118 bug fixes ๐Ÿš€ See everything we've shipped โ†’ โšก๏ธ Thanks for reading! You've made it to the end of the update! Thanks for being our biggest fan ๐Ÿ’œ If you have feedback, hit reply or drop us a note in our Slack community.
