Refined Data source feature set

The data source is one of the most powerful features in the platform that empowers you to build customized data views to build reports, create stunning data visualizations, list views, and share data via API.

Performance and Security : Our headway with strong Data governance

You already know how massive the data tables can get. As the business grows and as more & more users come on board, the data can be hard to manage. Security and Performance have been one of our prime focus areas over the past few months.

We have employed governance targeting Security and Performance by limiting the data export to 2000 records. We want to encourage all our platform users to leverage the rich features such as data sources, filters, and Reports to extract the niche set of data that drives value in their decision-making process.

We can now enforce better Data governance, and we are confident that all of you will appreciate our efforts towards improving the customer experience across the platform.

The best practice for exporting data is to apply filters for required criteria in data table records before exporting the records. For example, if there is a requirement to export more than 2000 records, you need to create a data source (Type: Report) on top of the data table and create a report on top of that data source to export a large amount of data.
