What's new in Sigma

July 25th, 2025

Admin

Email template changes coming soon

The default email templates used for scheduled exports, invitations to join an organization, and more will have an updated design:

Email viewed in Google Mail with a subject header that matches the workbook name. The header of the email body contains the Sigma logo and the name of the Sigma organization, and the text "Here's your report on "My Workbook", with the message body text below it. A box titled Document contains the name of the workbook, and a blue button after the box says Open workbook. Text at the end of the email includes the name and email of the person who created the scheduled export

The changes are already available to some customers and will gradually become available over the next two weeks, with full availability planned for August 8, 2025.

Custom email templates are unaffected by this change.

New events captured in audit logs

You can now view audit log enabling and storage integration events in your audit logs.

Version tag metadata available in Document activity and Queries Usage dashboards.

You can now filter by version tags in the Document activity and Queries Usage dashboards. This allows you to see activity or query data only for documents with a specified version tag, such as Production or Development.

Document creation metadata is also now available in the Queries Usage dashboard.

API

New API endpoints to list and get details for data models

The following endpoints to list data models and get details for a data model are now available:

Data apps

Pause or resume action sequences

Pause or resume action sequences to debug and test actions. You can control the pause/resume state of individual sequences or globally change the state of all sequences in the workbook. To prevent stale paused states and avoid workflow disruptions, paused sequences automatically resume when the workbook is refreshed.

For more information, see Create and manage action sequences .

Set range values with actions

The Set control value action now supports Number range and Range slider controls as target elements. You can configure the action to execute the following effects:

  • Set or clear the min and max values of a Number range control
  • Set the range start and end values of a Range slider control

Data modeling

Additional metadata for dbt jobs

If you run dbt jobs, you can see additional metadata about the dbt models and dbt jobs in the data catalog for a connection in Sigma. View the SQL used to create the model, the last run time, the job ID and run ID, and more.

See Manage dbt Integration.

Embeds

Hide bookmarks URL parameters

Sigma now provides a new hide_bookmarks URL parameter for secure embeds that enable you to hide saved views from the embed menu. This is available in the embed sandbox.

For more information, see Embed URL parameters.

Workbook elements

Reference data elements in custom SQL statements (GA)

You can reference data elements and other custom SQL elements in SQL statements in Sigma using the sigma_element('Element Title') syntax. Creating a warehouse view from a table created using custom SQL that uses this syntax is also now supported.

For more details, see Write custom SQL.

Tabbed containers (GA)

Sigma now supports tabbed container elements. Add a tabbed container to your workbook pages when you want to offer multiple sets of content in the same section of your workbook canvas. A tabbed container has multiple tabs at the top of the container, which can either be visible or hidden for end users. By placing content on different tabs and configuring logic about which tab should display, you can allow users to experience different views in the same space without scrolling or navigating elsewhere. See Use tabbed containers to organize workbook content.

Workbook features

Conditional exports will no longer list the condition in the email message

Any export scheduled to send an email when a condition is met will no longer list the condition in the email message starting August 4th, 2025.

If you still want to include the condition in the export after this change, update the message included in the scheduled export to include the condition. For more details about scheduling a conditional export, see Schedule a conditional export or alert.

Pivot table totals changes coming soon

Starting August 1st, the placement of pivot table totals is changing. The pivot table total label is moving up one level in the table.

For example, the current placement of pivot table totals is as follows:

Pivot table with Store Region and Store State pivot rows and Product Type and Product Family pivot columns. The subtotals for the Store Region row appear with the title Total at the same level as the Store State values. The subtotals for the Product Type columns appear with the title Total at the same level as the Product Family values.

After the change, totals look as follows:

Pivot table with Store Region and Store State pivot rows and Product Type and Product Family pivot columns. The subtotals for the Store Region row appear at the same level as the Store Region and include the name of the specific region: East total. The subtotals for the Product Type column appear at the same level as the Product Type header values and include the name of the specific product type: Arts & Entertainment Total.

For row totals, the change is only visible when displaying rows as separate columns.

Set custom banding colors for table and pivot table rows

When formatting a table or pivot table, you can now use custom colors for row banding.

For more details, see the section on banding in Format and customize a table.

Warehouse view support for transposed tables

You can now create a warehouse view for a transposed table.

To transpose a table, see Transpose a table. To create a warehouse view, see Create and manage warehouse views.
