What’s new in ThoughtSpot Cloud

July 2025 10.11.0.cl

Features marked as Beta are off by default. To enable them, contact ThoughtSpot Support. These features are not available for Free Trial.

Why questions in Spotter Early Access

When you want to investigate further on a chart in Spotter, you can now ask direct questions like, "Why did my sales drop last month?" or "Why did sales drop in Q2?" Spotter identifies the key attributes and leverages the change analysis engine to provide a clear, natural language summary identifying the key drivers, supported by detailed visualizations. To enable this feature, contact your administrator.

Liveboard styling and grouping Beta

ThoughtSpot introduces new styling and grouping options for Liveboards. Styles can be applied to a Liveboard, a tile, or a group of tiles to improve readability, differentiate specific content, or apply organizational branding guidelines. To enable this feature, contact ThoughtSpot Support.

For more information, see Liveboard grouping and Liveboard styling.

Enhanced dynamic parameters in charts Early Access

You can now use any parameter from an axis or column name of a chart in the title or description of the Answer which contains that chart. A parameter used in the title or description always displays the value of the same parameter used in the chart itself. To enable this feature, contact your administrator.

Filtering a Liveboard for users with limited access to its Worksheets or Models Early Access

When viewing a Liveboard, you can now do the following:

  • Filter columns from a Worksheet or Model you have access to.

  • See parameters and filters from a Worksheet or Model that you don’t have access to, but you can’t re-order them.

  • Select a hidden column used as a filter from a Worksheet or Model. It only shows the selected values, and you can’t change them.

When editing a Liveboard, you can now do the following:

  • Add, edit, and remove filters and parameters from a Worksheet or Model you have access to. You can’t link filters to a Worksheet or Model that you don’t have access to.

Show only relevant filters and parameters on Liveboards

This feature is now on by default and available to all users. Filters and parameters that are not relevant to a tab are hidden by default when you open and view a Liveboard. You can choose to view all filters and parameters, including those that are not relevant to the tab, so that you can quickly create a new View or download the Liveboard without needing to switch tabs and apply filters individually.

Add KPI to the watchlist from Liveboards and Answers

You can now add KPIs to your watchlist directly from the Liveboard or Answers page. Click the More menu icon More menu icon in the upper-right corner of any Liveboard KPI or saved Answer, then select Add to watchlist. This allows you to track important KPIs without leaving the page you’re viewing.

KPI monitor alerts in Slack Early Access

Monitor alerts can send alert triggers directly to Slack to ensure better visibility and immediate action within your workflows. You can set up notifications to send to Slack when you create an alert. To enable this feature, contact your administrator.

For more information, see Copy a formula and Copy a parameter.

Reorder parameters in Liveboards and Answers
