As a non-technical user, you can now manage your integrations and dashboard collections without writing a single line of code. No more bugging your IT team! From within our simple UI, you can:

• Grant specific user rights to a collection of dashboards & datasets
• Dynamically change dashboards via lists & pickers, instead of hardcoding the dashboard IDs
• Track usage per user & per dashboard

Each dashboard will have a unique name, or ‘slug’, that will be added to the code. So, whenever you want to swap an existing dashboard, simply use our dashboard picker to select a new dashboard instead of changing IDs in the code. Your changes will be live immediately!

When switching between frameworks (Angular, Vue, React, ...), there are subtle differences in using a Cumul.io dashboard component.

We are now ensuring consistency across all available libraries (Web Component, React, Angular, Vue, ...) in features, inputs, events, methods, structure and naming convention.

Give your end-users control over their data by offering them their own analytics dashboard design environment!

Empower your users with:

• A way to edit and/or adapt embedded dashboards
• A fully fledged analytics hub to analyse their data and create, update, export and share dashboards with others

Let them uncover valuable insights in their data with our embeddable editor, fully styled to your branding and look & feel!

More options to tweak your dashboard styling directly from within the UI!

You can now set font sizes in pixels: set a ‘base font size’ for your entire dashboard theme, or tweak the font size for specific items in your dashboard, like chart titles, tooltips, legends or axes.

We also added other customization options such as:

• Changing the shape of the legend to square, circle or rectangle
• Modifying the background color of your tooltips
• Adapting the line height for titles & legends

Our pivot table widget got a huge upgrade with new functionalities and improved existing ones:

• Improved performance for bigger pivot tables
• Pivot table now supports filter interactivity
• Heat table options for pivot table
• Easy sorting of pivot table
• Set row or column limits
• Improved sticky headers & labels

The date filter now has a display adapted to every device, including mobile devices.

you can now add date ranges in the future. If you want to set a custom date range for the “Next X days” or “Next X months”, you can now easily do so within the UI. This is great for monitoring predictions or future targets!

This item visualizes a metric against a target, pretty similar to a gauge. You can use a Speedometer, however, to indicate a specific range in which your target value should locate itself, rather than a fixed target.

This is especially useful in industrial contexts: imagine you’re working with sensors to measure a specific value or quality, for example an air quality sensor, or a speed sensor. In such cases, the values usually need to be inside a specific range, and anything outside that range should be noticed immediately.

Area charts now support a manual or variable axis range. Set your own custom minimum & maximum value for your axis, in case you want to change the displayed range for the best visual effect.

If you do not want to show the scrollbar in your text objects, you can now hide it with a simple toggle. In addition, you can adapt the text box padding entirely to your preference.

You don’t want to offer dashboards to your clients that have ‘old-fashioned’ written all over them, right?

At Cumul.io, we make sure your dashboards seamlessly fit inside your platform, while looking absolutely slick and stunning. Therefore, we now added rounded corners to the customization options. Set rounded corners to your charts, and add padding to make them look even nicer than before!

Already excited to give your dashboards a fresh new look? It’s really simple to adapt. Simply open your dashboard, look for the chart settings, and you’ll see two brand-new slider bars: ‘Rounded corners’ and ‘Padding’.

Dual axis support for line and area charts, on top of the combination charts. Whenever you add a second measure to your line & area charts, you can now display a second axis on the right-hand side, define which measure belongs to which axis, and set the minimum value for each axis

With the dual axis, it will become much easier to visually compare trends in both metrics, lines, ...

The date filter now has a display adapted to every device, including mobile devices.

you can now add date ranges in the future. If you want to set a custom date range for the “Next X days” or “Next X months”, you can now easily do so within the UI. This is great for monitoring predictions or future targets!

We added TS types to our npm package for the Core API! We will continuously be improving the types, but for avid Typescript users out there this should be a breath of fresh air! Enjoy the IDE prompts and the smooth integration of Cumul.io into your application.

To install simply npm install cumulio

For more information and examples, checkout our GitHub page.

The dashboard editor has become more compact, with collapsible menus, making it cleaner and easier to navigate. Reuses your dashboard background colors to give you that immersive feeling.

View & edit datasets without leaving the dashboard editor. Simply select 'Edit Dataset' in the dashboard side menu, and add, delete or create derived columns, inspect a dataset, and go straight back to your dashboard.

A Spike Map allows you to visualize numerical data on a map. They cover similar ground as symbol maps but have the added benefit of comparison and positioning. Humans are better at comparing different lengths than comparing different areas with each other. Spikes also overlap les than circles.

This new map comes with great configurability like defining the height, width, opacity & colors of spikes.

Visually summarize data to spot the variable's spread and outliers at a glance, in a graph not taking up too much space in case you need to compare multiple categories.

There are many use cases like visualizing data observed by sensors, operational data or even sales data.

This allows you to dynamically set the currency depending on the user looking at a dashboard.

This is particularly interesting in case you are displaying monetary values coming from a column, where depending on the user, the currency can differ.

By setting the currency on your SSO user token you can now override the displayed currency for that user.

This allows you to adapt a previously saved organization theme

This was already possible using the API, but is now offered through the user interface as well. All dashboards using that theme will be updated as well!

A heat table shows you the magnitude of a phenomenon as color across two axis dimensions. The variation in color may be by hue or intensity, giving obvious visual cues to the reader about how the phenomenon is clustered or varies over space.

We're working on several improvements here:

• Use custom labels for defined ranges
• Include or exclude the current period from a range
• Ability to specify a period as a pre-defined range

to allow you to tweak the date filter even more to your liking!

We're working on adding more flexibility and extra options to our slicer item:

• the ability to set a horizontal layout
• infinite & virtual scroll
• rank slicer elements based on an aggregated measure

In case of large column contents, with this setting you can turn on text wrapping in regular tables, resulting in variable row heights depending on the contents.

Definitely easier to catch all information in a blink of an eye!

With this (optional) setting, no more reading confusion or converting needed for your users: depending on the language set for the end-user, number, date and currency format would be dynamically, locally-aware updated!

With data-driven, custom tooltips, your users benefit even more from the insights you are exposing in your platform!

• Update automatically tooltips when subsets of data are selected
• Show dynamically text elements
• And format comprehensively tooltips

Custom events are a way to trigger an event or action from within your dashboard, based on a selection of specific data in a chart , to be used in your own application.

The possibilities are virtually endless: trigger an email based on a selected segment in your dashboard, exporting data, drill through to another dashboard that displays more in-depth statistics on a specific selection,…
Almost all our chart types support custom events.

You can now download your data from any chart to an Excel file with the single click of a button! While you could already export to CSV, this new feature will make your experience even more seamless if you’re an avid Excel user.

Thanks to the drill down function, you can easily show data on different levels of details within one chart only. No need to create separate charts for showing monthly vs daily evolutions, product sales vs. product category sales, and more.

• Drilldown on date levels: in the chart settings, you can choose the name displayed for this function and choose the drill down levels: quarter, month, week, day, hour, minute, second and millisecond.
• Drilldown on hierarchies you created

We increased the resolution of chart exports to PNG or PDF, so charts will look sharp and clean everywhere. Whether you want to send them via email to your stakeholders, message them to a colleague over Slack, or share them with the world via social media!

With the new alerting feature, set alerts for specific events, all from within your dashboard, to get an automatic warning from your data dashboard when a specific event occurs, a certain goal or KPI is reached, or a threshold is passed. Send immediate notifications via email to anyone that should be notified, and start taking action on data faster!

Triggers for alerts can be fully configured:

• Choose whether you are notified if your metric equals, exceeds or drops below a certain threshold
• Choose whether you want to track these changes for the sum of all values, an average, a rate, minimum, maximum, etc.
• Specify additional filters, for example the year or month in which your alert needs to apply, a specific category to which the alert should apply,…

Add a tooltip to any chart type that provides more contextual information about the data presented. Use it to add notes or context that is important for your end users to correctly interpret the data.

Next to email, we have added additional channels like Slack, SMS & webhook for alerting messages.

With the channel manager you are able to configure which type of channels you enable for your end-users and even give them the possibility of adapting delivery settings.

Dashboards are all triggering actions, decision making and of course communication.

By adding the option of commenting to dashboards, we help you drive engagement and allow for discussions on insights.

Users are able to:

• Give comments to a dashboard
• Check out other comments (within the same suborganization)
• Reply on comments of others
• Modify and/or delete comments (if no replies)

With this we are extending the existing 'drill down'-interactivity to other columns than the current one used for a category.

Boost your dashboard interactivity and give your users the possibility of drilling down to other columns for instance "country column, province column, city column" or "user department, company", or "year, product, ..." etc, to retrieve the exact information they are looking for.

Want to make your dashboards even more interactive for your users?

By giving end users more control on the measures and dimensions being displayed (using a list you would predefine) you can allow for deeper analysis by your end users

Via a simple dropdown you can let your users:

• Choose the measure they want to visually check out e.g. sales volume, or profit, ...
• Change the dimensions over which the measure is displayed e.g. Acquisition channel, Product,...

... and automatically updating the chart with the correct data!

Are you serving clients across different timezones? You’ll first want to make sure your dashboards reflect the timezone your user is currently in. To do so, we added a powerful timezone feature... Check!

But imagine now: you’re based in Amsterdam and you make a sale at 1am today? If you are based in US, that transaction would be reflected in your sales numbers of yesterday.

Cumul.io now automatically supports this type of aggregation: set a default timezone for your organization directly from your profile settings. In addition, you can set a timezone from the dashboard editor in 3 ways:

• Inherit: which uses the timezone of the Cumul.io user
• Browser: which uses the timezone of the browser you’re currently using
• Fixed: set a specific timezone for that dashboard by choosing a timezone from the dropdown list

Do you have dashboards integrated in your own application? Then you can also override the timezone directly inside the Cumul.io embed script.

Our ‘is in‘ and ‘is not in‘ filters now support numerical data types. Previously, you could only use them for hierarchies. This is particularly useful if you want to filter out a specific set of numeric id’s.

Let’s say you have a unique numeric id for every customer, or for each order they place. Now, you can use the is (not) in filters to easily filter one or more id’s in your dashboard!

For integration use cases, this will be a helpful feature to set up multitenancy based on your client’s id.

When you’re serving embedded dashboards to your clients inside your platform, Cumul.io’s authorization tokens are a useful asset. An authorization token lets you define which dashboard or data you want to show to each user.

As of now, you can also add post-aggregation filters (‘having’) to your authorization tokens to filter on aggregated values instead of on individual records.

Let’s say you want to visualize the amount of items sold per city. However, you only want to show this data for cities where at least 100 items were sold. By adding the above ‘having’ filter to your authorization token, your dashboard will now only display cities that have sold at least 100 items in the dashboard.

We redesigned the dataset modal to make adding datasets to the Cumul.io platform more intuitive This new modal has many advantages like:

• Get direct access to your most frequently used connectors
• Easily browse our existing connectors through the search bar
• Navigate easily through the different data connection options such as local file upload, databases or your own plugins

Update now also database connections directly from within the UI, in addition to modifying your database connections via API.

You can do this either via the dataset modal, or via your connected accounts page. This will make it easier to make quick changes to your database connection.

We now support Oracle database connections with our out-of-the-box Oracle connector.

Simply enter the credentials of your Oracle database and you’re ready to query data from your Oracle database, straight into your Cumul.io dashboards! No need to write code. Connect in just a few clicks.

We added SQL datasets to Cumul.io: a way to create and manage database views in Cumul.io, instead of managing them in your database.

As a tech-savvy business user,

• simply write and perform a database query directly in Cumul.io to create your desired views without bugging your IT department
• and still take advantage of full power of underlying database, directly inside Cumul.io

SQL datasets are currently available for the following databases:

• PostgreSQL
• SQL server
• MySQL
• MariaDB
• AWS Redshift
• Panoply
• Stardog

Synchronization of Google Sheets is now possible for arbitrary sheet sizes, and not limited anymore to 10MB limit.

Connect now to MySQL 8 databases with new authentication modes.

Connect your SAP HANA database to Cumul.io in a few clicks thanks to our SAP HANA connector

• Connect SAP HANA in real time
• Drag & drop dashboards on SAP HANA data
• Fully embed in your platform

Working behind a screen all day can get tiring for your eyes. So for the fans, we added dark mode to Cumul.io! It’s easier on the eyes, it’s less distracting, and of course… it just looks awesome!

Give your productivity a boost and try out our dark mode in the dashboard editor. Simply browse to your profile settings to switch between light and dark mode.

Your data can change over time, which means you may delete certain columns in a dataset – or even datasets as a whole – from time to time. However, this might cause your dashboards to break!

What if you were using this data column in a filter? In that case, you surely don’t want to waste time going through every dashboard’s filters to check which ones are broken.

Thanks to filter warnings for deleted columns & datasets, you’ll now see a big red alert in your filter overview for deleted data in a dashboard filter. This makes it much easier to spot errors in your dashboard filters.

With bulk actions, you can now bulk share or bulk delete datasets and dashboard instead of manual one by one actions. Simply use the select icon to start sharing or deleting in bulk!

Safely remove users from your organization even if that user is the owner of certain data or dashboards that are in production. When a user is removed, all their data are now automatically reassigned to the deleting users and not break embedded dashboards when removing an existing user.

With version history, you can easily restore and publish versions of your dashboards in Cumul.io:

• Access and restore previous versions of your dashboard
• Protect in-production dashboards with published versions
• Use dashboard versioning for easier deployment

When integrating dashboards into your application or website, versioning lets you easily make changes in draft, and publish them to your in-production environment.

The Cumul.io Portal is your very own reporting portal to gather your company’s most important dashboards and KPIs, all in one place. Make data insights accessible to anyone in your organization, or to any stakeholder, with a reporting portal, while still easily adapting their user rights so that they only see the dashboards you want them to see.

Open the portal on your desktop, or pin app.cumul.io/portal on your mobile home screen and have the Cumul.io Portal as an app on your phone!

What are the advantages of the portal?

• Centralize all KPIs and dashboards in one place
• Manage who has access to which dashboard
• Share a single link to the portal with anyone in your organization, instead of having to share separate links with each colleague for each dashboard
• Pin your portal as a shortcut on your cell phone, to have access to your dashboards anytime, anywhere

Is your company divided into multiple, separate departments? Are you sharing your Cumul.io environment with multiple clients or external stakeholders?

Most likely, in that case you don’t want to allow client A to view or share dashboards with client B. But still, you want to keep full control over the dashboards, and share dashboards with different clients all from the comfort of a single Cumul.io account.

To help you organize your account more easily, we added suborganizations to Cumul.io: now set up multiple suborganizations in Cumul.io, next to your “main organization”. Users in your main organization will be able to view & share with users in your suborganizations, but not the other way around.

Here is an example to illustrate: your account manager Tina can share dashboards with her clients – Burger King and McDonalds – but they won’t see Tina as a user in their organization. Ronald McDonald can share with his colleague Mayor McCheese, because they are in the same suborganization, but not with his competitor The King, since he’s in a separate suborganization.

This allows you to configure the redirect page in case of expired sessions of your users.

To get lightning-fast dashboards, we made it possible to send the "full-filter context" to a plugin, which considerably limits the amount of date you have to send in your request.

Use now any materialized view you created in PostgreSQL directly in Cumul.io.

By using a materialized view, you can precompute joins & aggregations in your dataset. So, instead of uploading 3 datasets and linking them in Cumul.io, you can now do this directly in your database using materialized views, and simply use that view in your Cumul.io dataset.

The advantage? Lightning-fast dashboards! The performance of your dashboards will improve a lot if you’re using PostgreSQL.

In order to help you optimize your data and dashboards for the best performance, we added query performance details to each chart. Click on the table icon of your chart to open the data settings, and you’ll see a new clock icon appearing in the top-left corner.

Clicking this icon will open up a brand-new query modal. It shows how long it took to load the chart, from validation to rendering. In addition, you will also see duration per stage of the query. Valuable information one which optimizations lead into the biggest performance gains!

The dashboards have always been multilingual, but now our full application is as well! Apart from the default English version, the entire Cumul.io application is now available in Dutch, French and Spanish! Simply go to your 'Profile Details' section in Cumul.io and change your language preference.

With dynamic account overrides, single tenant-use cases become more intuitive: if you are using 1 separate database, schema or table per client, you can set overrides on these database elements per authorization token.

To learn more about this, check out developer documentation on account overrides.

When it comes to authentication, we all know the hassle of logging in to multiple applications with separate logins and passwords. Especially when you have to login multiple times within the same application, this causes a bad user experience, which you’ll absolutely want to avoid.

In addition, with raising cybersecurity concerns every day, it’s now more important than ever to have a secure authentication mechanism in place.

As a user-friendly and secure solution, Cumul.io now offers Single Sign-on tokens for authentication to your embedded dashboards. This means that your platform users will only need to authenticate once in order to get access to the embedded dashboards (s)he is allowed to see.

To get started, check out the Academy course on how to integrate dashboards using SSO.

To keep your accounts safe, we added an extra layer of security through multi-factor authentication.

You can enable multi-factor authentication for your account below 'Profile Details'. Download an Authenticator app on your phone (Google, Microsoft, or Authy), scan the QR code, enter 2 consecutive codes and you are all set.

Choose where your data with Cumul.io is stored, make sure that all your data is stored in the region that makes sense to you, whether that’s in the EU or the US.

Why is this important? Let’s have a run through:

• Legal compliance: This could especially help those of you based in the US, making it possible to have your data with us stored locally. But equally, you might be subject to GDPR and other regulations, requiring you to have your data stored in the EU. This choice is now completely up to you!
• Latency: As our query engine can now also be located closer to wherever your data source is, it will also mean improvements with regards to latency.

It's now possible to share with suborganizations!

A handy new way of sharing in use cases where you want eg. an account manager to share client-specific dashboards to a suborganization. Instead of creating & managing a group to share, or share individually, you can now just share datasets/dashboards with the suborganization, and any current and future members of that suborganization will have access automatically.

We also made it possible for users to get an SSO authorization without being part of a suborganization. Most of the time, as an organisation, you want dashboards from different customers or suborganisations to be shielded from each other: so, users are typically authorized linked to an suborganization.

There may be cases, however, where you want end-users to be authenticated without being part of a suborganisation.
