What's new in Sigma

Admin

Team provisioning for SAML SSO

Team provisioning for SAML SSO is now supported. Team assignments for a SAML user are synced when logging into Sigma. See Single sign-on with SAML.

Search and discovery

Send bug reports from error messages

For select errors, you can now send a bug report from a link in the error message.

Workbook elements

Customize element styles in a workbook layout (Beta)

You can now customize the styling of data elements such as tables, input tables, visualizations, and UI elements. Add or remove padding, change the corner style, add a border, and change the text alignment for text elements.

Set default styles in an organization theme, customize styles for an entire workbook in the workbook settings, or style individual elements.

See Customize element background and styles and Workbook settings overview.

Copy pivot table contents

You can now copy cells, rows, and columns in pivot tables to your clipboard.

Highlight the selected row for the pivot table

When you select a cell in a pivot table, the corresponding pivot row is highlighted.

Updated Geography map visualization

The Geography map visualization now uses Mapbox. The Point and Region map visualizations already use Mapbox.

As part of this change, the default zoom of your map might be different. Use the Pin viewport option on a map to persist the desired zoom level.

Workbook features

Make actions conditional (Beta)

When you define an action for a workbook element, you can now define an optional condition for that action. Customize the trigger behavior of your action based on the value of a control element or using a custom formula.

In the animation, a user clicks each of the two values, demonstrating that the chart visualization switches between a trellis view of each country and a combined view in a stacked bar chart.

See Make an action conditional (Beta).

New version of plugins available

Enhancements include:

  • Plugins can now trigger actions in other workbook elements.
  • User-defined functions can now be called in plugins through workbook actions.
  • Paginated data fetching, allowing you to fetch more than 25,000 data points.
  • Warning messages if configuration items are passed into functions/hooks before they are registered.

Developers can access detailed installation and usage guides on GitHub.
