2023 November updates - v.27.11 - 16
LogAlto New and improved features - November 2023
The team worked super hard this month with over 123 released tickets and several quality-of-life improvements. Here are the highlights:
New features
Improvements to the table's column selector
You could always show/hide columns and sort your tables. You can also search for columns and select/deselect the filtered selection. This will make manipulating your standard tables in Analytics that much easier.

Improvements to the JSON url and M Query script generators (Power BI)
Similarly, you can now search and group select your columns when building your JSON URL or M Query script to export your datasets.

In addition, the order of column selection is now reflected in the script, so you no longer need to re-order the columns during or after the querying step.

Mobile app improvements
The mobile application has received numerous performance increases.
It also used to not always be easy to know why certain records failed to synchronize on LogAlto. A notable new behaviour is that data collectors will now be able to upload records even if some of them are blocked (for example for violating a unicity condition) and get more information on why some were blocked.
Improvement to webhooks
In our last news update we mentioned the integration of webhooks. A webhook is a URL you manage, and to which LogAlto can send the events you want to be informed about. The feature has been expanded and you can now manage through LogAlto's API or the Settings page.

The list of available events can be found in the API documentation.
