The [[QPR ProcessAnalyzer Version Compatibility|database major version]] will change in QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.8, which means that earlier QPR ProcessAnalyzer releases are not compatible with the database that has been updated to QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.8. This needs to be taken into account in those environments where multiple versions of QPR ProcessAnalyzer server are run using the same database.
Known issue: If the [[PA_Configuration_database_table#:~:text=DefaultUiLanguage|DefaultUiLanguage]] system configuration is not defined, users who haven't changed their own language, are unable to login. To prevent this problem, please ensure the DefaultUiLanguage is defined. The next release will fix this issue (D-14706).

The eventlog data for the legacy models will be removed from the database automatically when updating to QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.8. This will lead to a permanent loss of data if all the needed models are not converted into the datatable-based models before updating to QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.8. If there are model conversions to be done, install QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.6 that can be used at the same time with QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.7 and make the conversions as described in the release notes for QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.7. After the conversion, the update to QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.8 can be done (and QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.6 and 2020.7 be uninstalled). If you need help in converting models, please contact customercare@qpr.com.
Content-Security-Policy (CSP) HTTP header has been updated to enhance security by implementing more restrictive settings. The following directives have been added:
</div>
* object-src 'none'
* frame-ancestors 'self'
* form-action 'none'
* base-uri 'none'
* worker-src blob:


<div style="border:1px solid #dfdfdf;padding:0.5em 1em 0.5em 1em;background-color:#E7EAEC;margin:10px 0px 0px 10px;">
These new restrictions may affect usage that has previously been possible. For example, with the new settings, QPR ProcessAnalyzer can be embedded to a website only within the same origin. For detailed instructions on embedding QPR ProcessAnalyzer on a different website, please refer to [[Embed_to_Website|this quide]]. Additionally, for information on modifying the CSP settings, see documentation for [[QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_Security_Hardening#HTTP_Response_Headers|security hardening]].
QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.8 brings a change in the server Web.config file which need to be taken into account in the update. In the section ''configuration'' > ''runtime'' > ''assemblyBinding'' > ''bindingRedirect'' for ''Newtonsoft.Json''. The new line is '''<bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-11.0.0.0" newVersion="11.0.0.0" />'''.
</div>
</div>


<div style="border:1px solid #dfdfdf;padding:0.5em 1em 0.5em 1em;background-color:#E7EAEC;margin:10px 0px 0px 10px;">
<div style="border:1px solid #dfdfdf;padding:0.5em 1em 0.5em 1em;background-color:#E7EAEC;margin:10px 0px 0px 10px;">
The '''Data Grid''' and '''HTML''' presentation objects will be removed in QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.8, because they have been replaced by easier-to-use and more powerful [[QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_Chart|Chart]] presentation object, which supports many layouts such as [[QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_Table|tables]]. After the update to QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.8, existing dashboards containing the removed Data Grid and HTML presentation objects will contain a placeholder with a message that the presentation object doesn't exist. That placeholder can be removed and replaced with the Chart presentation object. If you need to preserve settings for the removed presentation objects, that needs to be done before updating to QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.8.
In the QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2025.6 Native App, the release version number is not displayed correctly in the User Settings dialog. This omission does not have any other complications. QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2025.6 is the only release with this issue, making it possible to identify this release despite the missing version number. This issue is specific to the Native App only. The next release will fix this issue (D-14703).

'''Notes:'''
== QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2025.4 (build 9985) (released 2025-05-28) ==
<div style="border:1px solid #dfdfdf;padding:0.5em 1em 1em 1em;background-color:#ffcdd3;margin:10px 0px 0px 10px;">
Support for the legacy models is dropped in QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.7, and the models need to be converted to the new datatable-based models before updating to QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.7. You can check the model type as follows: Open QPR ProcessAnalyzer Web UI, open the models dropdown list in the header, find the model, open ''Properties'' for the model, and go to the ''Datasources'' tab. If the ''Load from Database'' is ''yes'', the model is a legacy model and requires conversion.


The conversion can be done as follows:
New features presentation: [https://files.qpr.com/releases/QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_2025_4.pdf QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_2025_4.pdf]
# In QPR ProcessAnalyzer Web UI, export the model as a .pacm file by clicking ''Export Model'' in the ''Model Properties'' (in the ''Actions'' tab).
# Go to the ''Datasources'' tab, change the ''Load from Database'' from ''Yes'' to ''No'', and change the ''Cases'' ''Datasource'' to ''Datatable''. The ''Events'' ''Datasource'' is already correct.
# Import the .pacm file back to the same model using the ''Data Import'' in the navigation menu. In the import form, select ''Import to Existing'' model and choose the model. Checkbox ''Add to existing data'' can be in either position.


Notes regarding the conversion:
===New features===
* Exporting and importing operations might take long time for very large models.
* Added new AI Agent presets analyzing current state and proposing improvements based on different viewpoints, such as Event and Case Counts, Automation, Bottlenecks, and Root Causes. (B-08710)
* Model id's are not changed in the conversion.
* Added a [[Filter_Selectors#Filter_selector|generic filtering component]] that can be configured for creating any type of filters for distinct values. (B-08654)
* Original filters and their id's are preserved but new duplicate filters are created during the import (which can be deleted).
* Volume declining in measures due to case sampling can be compensated in chart and flowchart by using a [[Measure,_Dimension_and_Column_Settings#Statistical_calculations|Statistical calculation method]]. (B-08598)
</div>
* In object-centric models, Object ID, Event ID, Event timestamp, and Event type [[Object-centric_Process_Mining_Model#Object-centric_perspectives|attribute names]] are shown correctly. (B-08680)
* Snowflake native app has now [[QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_Native_App_in_Snowflake#User_access_to_application|application roles]] for user (for using app) and administrator (for managing app). (B-08660)
* For Snowflake native app, IMPORTED PRIVILEGES ON SNOWFLAKE DB privilege is removed and instead the [[QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_Native_App_in_Snowflake#Optional_privilege_for_AI_Agent|CORTEX_USER database role]] can be assigned. (B-08718)
* [[QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_Native_App_in_Snowflake#Logging|Native app logging]] has been improved and now sharing application logs with QPR is possible. (B-08661)
* Added [[DataFrame_in_Expression_Language#CsvToDataFrame|CsvToDataFrame]] function to expression language to convert textual CSV data into in-memory dataframe. (B-08246)


<div style="border:1px solid #dfdfdf;padding:0.5em 1em 0.5em 1em;background-color:#E7EAEC;margin:10px 0px 0px 10px;">
===Fixed issues===
QPR ProcessAnalyzer server installation has some files removed comparing to the previous version, because the WCF tester legacy functionality has been removed. Please note this, if updating the server by replacing the old files, because the files that need to be removed don't actually get removed with that method. The files to be removed are ''default.aspx'', ''favicon.ico'' and ''processanalyzer.png'' and folder ''scripts''.
* Fixed "Invalid identifier" error when opening attribute selection list for case attribute preset caused by object id columns which differed only by letter capitalization. (D-14539)
</div>
* When Image component is clicked in dashboard edit mode, the component is now selected instead of link followed. (D-14525)
* Filters created from dimensions having dimension-specific filter rules will now create expression filter rule where dimensions-specific filter is embedded, for accurately following the selection. (D-14499)
* Filtering variations or list of event attribute values didn't work in in-memory models. (D-14476)
* Fixed issue where AI Agent didn't update when dashboard variable changed used by prompt chart. (D-14537)
* Fixed issue where some statistical calculations inadvertently changed row order when applying in groups. (D-14495)
* In in-memory models, array type of data was not dimensioned correctly. (D-14518)
* AI Agent Process Variations preset gave "division by zero" error when there were zero cases. (D-14508)
* Table grouping header labels were not formatted correctly. (D-14514)

* Filtering by OcelObjectId didn't work when model didn't have object type table for perspective used in filter. (D-14522)
* Fixed Root causes analysis with weighting expression to work with object-centric models. (D-14517)
* Fixed issue where persisting query results where query is started from datatable having custom table name overwrote data in original table. (D-14528)
* Flowchart SVG export did not show start and end symbols. (D-12401)
* Fixed issue where join operation didn't find renamed columns in SqlDataFrames. (D-14512)
* Improved chart filtering button positions to work with small chart sizes. (D-14509)
* Datatable foreign key columns dictionary data type was incorrect preventing reading columns information. (D-14505)
* Workspace scripts editor allowed to change script code for viewer users (altough not save it). (D-14534)
* In chart custom sorting, trying to refer to measure that had None aggregation, caused SQL compilation error. (D-14526)
* Model validation check crashed when the datatables were in different datasources. (D-14502)

Build number: 2020.5.0.41888, Model compatibility version: 3, Database version: 73, PACM file version: 7, Protocol version: 33. ([[QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_Version_Compatibility|see more]])


'''Notes:'''
New features presentation: [https://files.qpr.com/releases/QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_2025_3.pdf QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_2025_3.pdf]
* Dashboards structure is simplified, as panels are removed and presentation objects are placed directly to the dashboard canvas. In addition, panel headers are not available anymore. Presentation objects have now background color, border color, border width and border corner radius, that were previously in the panel level. All existing dashboards are automatically migrated to the newer structure. Existing dashboards that have several presentation objects within a same panel, are positioned on top of the others, so in those cases presentation objects need to be repositioned manually after updating to QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.5.
* IP address verification of user sessions has been removed. Previously, each user session was only allowed from the same IP address. This kind of security feature won't work with IPv6 addresses which usually change more often than IPv4 addresses.

== QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.4 (released 2020-05-26) ==
===New features===
Build number: 2020.4.0.41643, Model compatibility version: 3, Database version: 71, PACM file version: 7, Protocol version: 33. ([[QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_Version_Compatibility|see more]])
* Enhanced [[AI_Agent|AI Agent]] with UI for editing prompt datasets, and added checkbox to include other charts in dashboard to prompt. (B-08641)

* Groups can be [[Manage_Users_and_Groups#Deleting_Group|deleted]] in user management. (B-08330)
* [[Storing_Secrets_for_Scripts|Secrets]] can be defines as global that can be used by all projects. To set global secrets, [[Generic_Functions_in_QPR_ProcessAnalyzer#SetSecret|SetSecret]] function works also in the generic context. (B-08599)
* Snowflake [[Clustering_Analysis|Clustering analysis]] shows now number of event occurrences as features describing clusters. (B-08353)
* Model validity check has been extended to find issues in the eventlog data for Snowflake case-centric models. (B-07910)


'''Notes:'''
===Fixed issues===
* In QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.4, the deployment package dashboards come with the installation, so there is no deployment package anymore to be installed. The previous deployment package located in the ''QPR ProcessAnalyzer UI'' project can be deleted when 2020.4 is installed.
* Fixed a potential issue which could have leaked database connections and caused connection pool starvation. (D-14414)
* To fix issue ''Datetimes are incorrect in files exported from data grids'' (219377), [[Data Grid Export Service|data grid export service]] needs to be updated from version V001 to V002.
* Renewed self-signed certificate used by SAML 2.0 authentication with ten years of validity. (D-14424)
* Issue workaround: After updating to QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.4, dashboards containing the root causes analysis give an error message about invalid chart configuration. The problem can be fixed as follows: from the JSON text that appears in the full screen text editor, make the following text replacements: "Case Attribute" --> "Case attribute" and "Attribute Value" --> "Attribute value". When the dashboard is saved, the error doesn't appear anymore.
* Improved CallWebService function to send request body when using DELETE method. (D-14488)
* To improve performance, for custom expressions in charts it's recommended to replace ''??_remove'' with the [[Generic_Functions_in_QPR_ProcessAnalyzer#RemoveNulls|RemoveNulls]] function. Example: Expression ''Average((_.Attribute("Cost") ??_remove)._)'' can be changed to ''Average(RemoveNulls(_.Attribute("Cost")))''.
* Login page now shows correct error message when there are serious system errors during login. (D-14480)
* To improve performance, for custom expressions in charts it's recommended to change expressions that make duration aggregations to work in a way that the aggregation is made before converting TimeSpans to integers (e.g. to days). Example: expression ''Average(_.Duration.TotalDays)'' can be changed to ''Average(_.Duration).TotalDays''.
* "Datatable contents (in-memory)" option now works also with Snowflake datatables. (D-14391)
* Issue: In Firefox, when opening a dashboard, an error message "Error in chart settings" might appear (the dashboard is still opened correctly). If the issue appears, it's recommended to use Chrome, where the issue does not appear that often. There are no other workarounds available for the issue.
* Added maximum data size limitation to AI assistant to avoid error with large datasets. (D-14419)
* Issue: FlowOccurrences and FlowOccurrencesByType properties don't work for Case objects when there are also filter rules applied. Some measures and dimensions use those properties. QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.5 will fix the issue, and for earlier versions there is no workaround.  
* Day of the Year/Week/Month/Quater selection didn't work with specific event time in in-memory chart. (D-14421)
* KPI card now shows a scrollbar when content doesn't fit to the available space. (D-13428)
* Workspace projects hierarchy tooltips didn't show special characters correctly. (D-14430)
* BPMN editor crashed when creating filter from tasks giving following error: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'querySelector'). (D-14399)
* Value expressions didn't work that are referred in dimension and containing aggregation. (D-13624)
* Fixed issue where object-centric flowchart filter selection gave error when case-centric model was selected. (D-14408)
* Fixed issue where query to non-existing model incorrectly returned "Sequence contains no elements". (D-14402)
* Incorrect StringifiedValues in chart settings and expression filter rule caused UI to stuck. (D-14485)
* Table column filter value list didn't show the null value label correctly. (D-13844)
* "Visualize list items with colors" setting didn't work with the "Last Row Aggregates Over-limit Rows" setting. (D-14357)
* Made sure that failed queries are not added to model filter cache. (D-14484)
* Chart settings crashed when trying to use without model selected giving following error: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'injectValue'). (D-14395)
* Fixed issue where chart settings opened on top of full screen BPMN editor. (D-14472)
* Show details button in some error messages didn't have any effect when pressed. (D-14490)
* Model validation message was incorrect for model where other datatable is Snowflake and other SQL Server. (D-14475)

== QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.3 (released 2020-04-16) ==
<div style="border:1px solid #dfdfdf;padding:0.5em 1em 0.5em 1em;background-color:#E7EAEC;margin:10px 0px 0px 10px;">
Build number: 2020.3.0.41413, Model compatibility version: 3, Database version: 71, PACM file version: 7, Protocol version: 33.
Detection of models with incomplete datasource configuration has been improved, and now models where the event timestamp column type is string, are not anymore considered valid models. Earlier the string type of data was accepted and converted into dates when model was loaded (for in-memory models) or in SQL queries (in Snowflake models).


'''Notes:'''
The following query can be run in the [[Navigation_Menu#Expression_Designer|Expression Designer]] (with System administrator user) to list models where the events datatable timestamp column type is string:
* Legacy Chart and Gauge presentation objects are removed from QPR ProcessAnalyzer (they are different than ChartView). If there are dashboards containing those types of presentation objects after updating to 2020.3, there will be a placeholder frame instead with an error message of a non-existing presentation object. To change the dashboard, remove those placeholders and replace with ChartViews. It's recommended to make the replacement to ChartViews before the update, because chart and gauge settings cannot be accessed anymore in 2020.3.
<pre>
* ChartView will change from an HTML presentation object to a native presentation object, which ensures that dashboards will work in future releases when the ChartView is evolving. ChartViews created with 2020.2 will be automatically migrated to the native ChartViews in 2020.3. ChartViews created with 2020.1 or earlier releases need to be updated manually by removing the ChartView from the dashboard and replacing it with a new ChartView.
Models.Where({
let timestampColumn = _.Configuration?.TryGetValue("Datasource")?.TryGetValue("Events")?.TryGetValue("Columns")?.TryGetValue("Timestamp");
return First(_.EventsDatatable?.Columns?.Where(Name==timestampColumn))?.Datatype == "String";
}).(Name + " (id: " + Id + ")");
</pre>

'''Features:'''
<div style="border:1px solid #dfdfdf;padding:0.5em 1em 0.5em 1em;background-color:#E7EAEC;margin:10px 0px 0px 10px;">
* 307849: Securely stored strings for passwords.
For Snowflake dashboards, table actions to [[QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_Table#Table_actions|set dashboard variables]] now set the variable values in the [[Stringified_Value_Format|stringified format]] instead of as raw values. This makes the variables set by table actions compatible with the [[Chart_Linked_Settings|linked settings]] which also use the stringified format by default for the Snowflake models.
* 307746: ChartView is now a native presentation object instead of an HTML presentation object. ChartView's made in 2020.2 are automatically converted to the native presentation objects.
</div>
* 307880: When a datatable model is moved to another project, the linked datatables should also be moved to the project.
* 307556: Functions to expression language to improve usability and performance: CaseCount, EventCount, EventCountByType and Round.
* 307895: SQL scripting command for database commit.
* 307850: Expression language performance improvement by a new way to calling functions and properties.
* 307858: Expression language: Support for array operators.
* 307845: Header buttons layout has been improved.
* 307870: Preprocessings are determined automatically.
* 307761: Functionality that user doesn't have access is now disabled in the dashboard designer and workspace to avoid access denied errors.
* 307839: Generic chart and gauge presentation objects are removed.
* 307863: Automatic redirection to SAML authentication.
* 307872: API support for querying if SAML is configured.
* 307846: Error message further improvements.
* 307888: Error message text changes for Dashboard not found and Multiple dashboards found.
* 307874 & 307887: ChartView and main header has been improved.

== QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.2 (released 2020-03-09) ==
===Fixed issues===
Build number: 2020.2.0.41129, Model compatibility version: 3, Database version: 67, PACM file version: 7, Protocol version: 33.
*Prevented following error in Snowflake dashboards: Object "qprpa_dt_cache_..." already exists when creating a cache table. (D-14348)
*In-memory chart "Cases filtered by attribute" didn't work for date type of attributes. (D-14387)
*Fixed issue where each dashboard element resize made element width or height increase when chart margin was more than zero. (D-14361)
*Chart related buttons are now hidden in datatable content preview. (D-14360)
*Fixed issue where gateway based data import didn't write SAP errors into script log. (D-14351)
* Snowflake chart gave error when "Last Row Aggregates Over-limit Rows" setting was used with list aggregation. (D-14352)
*"Users" system report performance has been improved by adding EffectivePermissionTypesFor function. (D-14266)
*Fixed issue where AI Assistant crashed when used with a model having ODBC or expression datasource. (D-14340)
*Fixed issue where AI Assistant explaining charts crashed when applying to Label component. (D-14344)

'''Notes:'''
===Other improvements===
* Expression language has now a [[QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_Expressions#Conditional_operator_.28if.29|conditional operator "if"]] and [[QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_Expressions#Define_variables_.28let.29_and_assign_variable_values_.28.3D.29|variable declaration operator "let"]]. In earlier QPR ProcessAnalyzer versions, the expression language had functions [[Generic_Properties_and_Functions_in_QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_Expressions#If|If]] and [[Generic_Properties_and_Functions_in_QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_Expressions#Let|Let]] which earlier could also be written in lowercase (i.e. "if" and "let"). Starting from QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2020.2, the lowercase versions refer to the conditional and variable declaration operators, and the uppercase versions refer to the corresponding functions. If there are expressions containing "If" and "Let" functions written in lowercase, please change them starting with uppercase.
*Changed Snowflake charts to store [[QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_Table#Table_actions|variable change actions]] in stringified format to make them compatible with linked settings. (B-08587)
* Issue workaround: The Root Causes analysis don't work (shows empty) in the right side chart (PAPO) of the ''Process Discovery'' view. The issue can be fixed as follows by an administrator: click the ''Edit'' toggle button, click the right side chart, click the ''Edit'' icon in the top right of the chart, click the chart again, click ''Properties'' icon in the top right of the chart, open ''Variables'' tab, find the ''InfluenceAttributeTypeId'' variable, and change its value to empty (instead of ''20''). Click ''Close'' twice to go back to the main level and click ''Save'' button. The issue will be fixed to 2020.3.
*Backend support for [[Filtering_in_QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_Queries#Object-centric_filter_rules|object-centric filter rules Disabled flag]]. (B-08611)
* Issue workaround: In ChartView, the ''Duration between events'' measure and dimension don't work when there are filters in use (the chart is empty). Workaround is to add the following ''Suffix expression'' to the measure or dimension settings (without quotes): "''//eventtypes''". The issue will be fixed to 2020.3.
*Implemented Entity Framework based database initialization and migrations. (B-08566)
*Added support for following Entity Framework database providers: SQL Server (full), Snowflake Hybrid Tables (experimental), PostgreSQL (experimental). (B-08581)
*Frontend components have been updated. (B-08597)
*Backend components have been updated. (B-08596)
*Translations have been updated for release 2025.2. (B-08607)

Latest revision as of 09:49, 5 November 2025

This page lists all new features and fixed issues for each QPR ProcessAnalyzer release.

Next Release: QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2025.7 (planned 2025-11-11)

See roadmap for next release features and fixes

Latest Release: QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2025.6 (build 10690) (released 2025-10-01)

New features presentation: QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_2025_6.pdf

Known issue: If the DefaultUiLanguage system configuration is not defined, users who haven't changed their own language, are unable to login. To prevent this problem, please ensure the DefaultUiLanguage is defined. The next release will fix this issue (D-14706).

Content-Security-Policy (CSP) HTTP header has been updated to enhance security by implementing more restrictive settings. The following directives have been added:

  • object-src 'none'
  • frame-ancestors 'self'
  • form-action 'none'
  • base-uri 'none'
  • worker-src blob:

These new restrictions may affect usage that has previously been possible. For example, with the new settings, QPR ProcessAnalyzer can be embedded to a website only within the same origin. For detailed instructions on embedding QPR ProcessAnalyzer on a different website, please refer to this quide. Additionally, for information on modifying the CSP settings, see documentation for security hardening.

In the QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2025.6 Native App, the release version number is not displayed correctly in the User Settings dialog. This omission does not have any other complications. QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2025.6 is the only release with this issue, making it possible to identify this release despite the missing version number. This issue is specific to the Native App only. The next release will fix this issue (D-14703).

QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2025.2 (build 9410) (released 2025-03-05)

New features presentation: QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_2025_2.pdf

Detection of models with incomplete datasource configuration has been improved, and now models where the event timestamp column type is string, are not anymore considered valid models. Earlier the string type of data was accepted and converted into dates when model was loaded (for in-memory models) or in SQL queries (in Snowflake models).

The following query can be run in the Expression Designer (with System administrator user) to list models where the events datatable timestamp column type is string:

Models.Where({
	let timestampColumn = _.Configuration?.TryGetValue("Datasource")?.TryGetValue("Events")?.TryGetValue("Columns")?.TryGetValue("Timestamp");
	return First(_.EventsDatatable?.Columns?.Where(Name==timestampColumn))?.Datatype == "String";
}).(Name + " (id: " + Id + ")");

For Snowflake dashboards, table actions to set dashboard variables now set the variable values in the stringified format instead of as raw values. This makes the variables set by table actions compatible with the linked settings which also use the stringified format by default for the Snowflake models.

New features

  • Introduced AI Agent which is a new dashboard component showing LLM generated answers based on user prompt and input data. (B-08556)
  • Added filtering by object attributes for object-centric models. Filters can be created from dialog or selecting items from charts. (B-08547)
  • In object-centric models, object-to-object relations are followed only forward and backward directions. Additionally, there are performance improvements for object-centric models. (B-08577)
  • Snowflake warehouse can be specified for each model allowing to use optimal type of warehouse for different sizes of models. (B-08610)
  • Home screen has been removed, and Workspace has new card layout and other UX improvements. (B-08541)
  • Added filter description field to filter properties dialog. (B-08451)
  • Removed event type existence check from charts, so that non-existing event types are allowed. (B-08585)
  • Snowflake Native App configuration data can be backed up to a snapshot and restored. (B-08591)
  • Improved detection of invalid models by adding CheckModelValidity function returning model validation errors. (B-08426)

Fixed issues

  • Prevented following error in Snowflake dashboards: Object "qprpa_dt_cache_..." already exists when creating a cache table. (D-14348)
  • In-memory chart "Cases filtered by attribute" didn't work for date type of attributes. (D-14387)
  • Fixed issue where each dashboard element resize made element width or height increase when chart margin was more than zero. (D-14361)

  • "Users" system report performance has been improved by adding EffectivePermissionTypesFor function. (D-14266)
  • Fixed issue where AI Assistant crashed when used with a model having ODBC or expression datasource. (D-14340)
  • Fixed issue where AI Assistant explaining charts crashed when applying to Label component. (D-14344)
  • Improved client-side import not to perform redundant datatable configuration data queries. (D-14347)
  • Model was incorrectly identified as in-memory model when datatables were missing. (D-14325)
  • Model default filter is now in use when model is opened from Workspace. (D-14376)

Other improvements

  • Changed Snowflake charts to store variable change actions in stringified format to make them compatible with linked settings. (B-08587)
  • Backend support for object-centric filter rules Disabled flag. (B-08611)
  • Implemented Entity Framework based database initialization and migrations. (B-08566)
  • Added support for following Entity Framework database providers: SQL Server (full), Snowflake Hybrid Tables (experimental), PostgreSQL (experimental). (B-08581)
  • Frontend components have been updated. (B-08597)
  • Backend components have been updated. (B-08596)
  • Translations have been updated for release 2025.2. (B-08607)
