What's new in Sigma

AI

Agent skill for the Sigma CLI

The sigma-cli skill provides instructions and reference materials that an AI assistant can use to call the Sigma REST API from the command line with the Sigma CLI.

For more information, see Install skills for AI assistants.

Assistant in build mode: complex dashboards (Beta)

In workbooks, Sigma Assistant in build mode can now generate complex dashboards that span multiple pages sourced from related warehouse tables or an existing data model. Use plan mode to preview the layout of pages, elements, and data sources, then review the plan and make structure adjustments before Sigma builds anything.

Admin

Allow embed users to interact with each other (Beta)

If you use Sigma Tenants and embed users are separated from each other in different organizations instead of through teams and workspaces, you might want to allow embed users to interact with each other.

An admin can turn on a setting and allow the following interactions for embed users in an organization:

  • Comment on workbooks, including @-mentioning other users.
  • Share documents and folders with other users and teams.
  • Create and manage shared views.
  • View scheduled exports created by other users if they have edit access to the document.
  • View public teams that they don’t belong to.

For more details, see Manage embed user settings.

Data modeling

Migrate warehouse views in datasets to data models

When you migrate a dataset to a data model, warehouse views for the dataset are now included in the migration. Sigma creates a warehouse view for the corresponding table in the data model and preserves the original view name so that references to the view continue to work.

For more details, see How warehouse views are migrated.

Templates

Snowflake Object Usage template

Track usage of tables, views, columns, and more for Snowflake connections in Sigma with the Snowflake Object Usage template. Answer questions like:

  • How many people actually use this table?
  • Which users have been able to see a certain column?
  • Which Sigma workbooks use this column?
  • What tables are used by this Sigma workbook?

Setup instructions are available in Sigma QuickStarts: Snowflake Object Usage Template setup.

For more information on templates, see Get started with templates.

Workbook elements

Drawers (Beta)

Use drawers to create a side panel that slides in to overlay the workbook page temporarily, allowing you to display new content and information at specific points in a workflow without disrupting other content.

For more information, see Use drawers to manage complex workflows.

Stack layout for containers (Beta)

You can use the Stack layout type to create containers that change their layouts responsively as you add new elements. Similar to the CSS Flexible Box Layout Model, stacks arrange all elements automatically based on a specified layout direction, distribution, and alignment, rather than requiring you to manually place each element in a grid.

For more information, see Use stacks to make responsive layouts.

Workbook features

Trigger workbook action sequences with webhooks (Beta)

Configure an automated action sequence triggered by a webhook. You can also pass variables from the webhook for the action sequence to reference.

To run a webhook-triggered action sequence, call the Send to a webhook (POST /v2/webhooks/:workbookId/:sequenceId) endpoint.

For more information, see Create a webhook-triggered action sequence.

Bug fixes and improvements

  • CSV uploads with high column counts (roughly 150 or more) now save correctly as data sources.

  • In workbooks, Sigma Assistant in build mode no longer crashes intermittently when asking the user a variety of question types.

  • Previously, the element crumb menu overlapped with elements on-hover, causing it to obscure options. Now, it adaptively moves to a position where it doesn’t obscure workbook contents.

  • When using a warehouse agent with Sigma Assistant, more information is available in the conversation about what actions the agent is taking. With the additional detail, you can review the steps the agent took to calculate an answer, helping validate actions taken by the agent or identify errors in logic that you can correct with follow-up messages.

  • When you create a child table element that transposes columns to rows from a parent element with column-level security rules configured, the child table no longer displays hidden column names to users who should not have access or displays “No access” for column values to users who should have access to the column.

  • You no longer need to click Cancel twice in order to successfully cancel a materialization in progress.
