October 2024 release notes

These new and enhanced features of ThoughtSpot Cloud were released in October 2024.

ThoughtSpot Cloud 10.3.0.cl

For the Analyst

Analyst Studio Beta

ThoughtSpot introduces Analyst Studio, where you can write SQL queries to create reusable Datasets. You can set schedules to refresh Datasets, or publish them to the Data workspace, where you can join multiple Datasets to query as a whole.

For more information, see Analyst Studio.

Liveboard schedule available to all users Early Access

ThoughtSpot introduces access to Liveboard schedules on the home page. Users can now see all Liveboard schedules that they are subscribed to in a new section on the home page. From this page, you can edit Liveboard schedules that you created. Administrators can edit the Liveboard schedule for all schedules from this page.

For more information, see New home page and persona-based navigation.

For the Business User

Natural language search and object search

Natural language search and object search are now separated. To search for an AI-generated answer using natural language, enter your question in the search bar marked Ask a business question in natural language on the home page. To search for related Answers and Liveboards, enter your question in the search bar marked Find existing Answers and Liveboards in the top navigation bar.

For information on the changes in ThoughtSpot Embedded, see Search experience in the ThoughtSpot developer documentation.

For any questions or concerns, contact ThoughtSpot Support.

Portuguese (Brazil) keywords

We have updated the Portuguese date keyword synonyms. For more information, see Português (Brasil) Keyword reference.

Keywords known issue

When entering keywords in the search bar, you may see different keywords reflected in the filter chips of the resulting chart (for example, última hora and último 1 hora). Accuracy of the search result is not affected.

Create an alert from the Watchlist on the home page Early Access

You can now create alerts directly from the Watchlist on the home page.

Manage tags for Answers and Liveboards

You can now manage all your Answer and Liveboard tags from one convenient window. Just click the Manage tags button at the top of your list of Liveboards or Answers, then create, edit, and delete tags. To delete and edit tags you must have administrator privileges or the can manage tags role if RBAC is enabled. For more information, see Use tags to organize.

For the Data Engineer

Categorization for Connections Early Access

You can now choose to sort Connections by type rather than order added to ThoughtSpot. To enable this feature, contact your administrator. For more information, see Categorizing Connections.

Sage Coach enhancements
Filters improvement

Filters for Worksheets, feedback providers, and editors have been refined to display only relevant values when managing feedback. For example, only Worksheets with existing feedback entries will appear in the filter options, rather than showing all Worksheets in the system. This enhancement improves the filtering process, making it more efficient and user-friendly.

Monitor the application of row-level security

You can now track whether or not row-level security is applied to queries. Risk and compliance analysts can track the volume of queries with row-level security applied versus those without. A row-level security tag is included in the sql query. This provides the ability to determine the number of queries that have included row-level security via the underlying database.

Each query log contains a comment as follows:

isRLSApplied: true/false.
Allow only ThoughtSpot users and groups to be added to schedules

ThoughtSpot schedules can be configured to prevent new and existing schedules from being sent to external emails. To enable this feature, contact ThoughtSpot Support.

For more information, see Schedule a Liveboard job

For the IT/Ops Engineer

Option to set new navigation and homepage experience as default Early Access

Administrators now have the ability to set the new navigation and homepage experience as the default UI for all users of the cluster, if it is enabled for the cluster. To enable this feature, go to the Admin > Early access features page and enable New Experience (Default UI). For more information, see Enable Early Access features.

Org-specific URLs Early Access

ThoughtSpot introduces Org-specific URLs. URLs in emails now include Org context so that users are taken directly to the correct Liveboard in the correct Org even if they belong to multiple Orgs. You can also move between different browser tabs that point to different Orgs.

Local authentication support with IAMv2 Early Access

ThoughtSpot allows customers to enable or disable local authentication at the Org and cluster levels. To enable local authentication at the cluster level, administrators require the Can manage authentication privilege. To enable local authentication at the Org level, contact ThoughtSpot Support.

Org level settings override cluster level settings.

For more information, see Managing local authentication.
