Wdata
Broken queries can now be fixed via SQL
We previously released a new broken query experience that allowed users to automatically fix or replace errant source files. Based on the initial feedback from our users, we've now released an additional update that allows the query to be edited in "advanced mode" through the SQL editor. This ability was previously locked for any queries that contained missing data sources.
Broken queries must now be manually saved
In addition, we've released a secondary update that requires broken queries to be manually saved after a change is made. This applies to both automatic updates and manual updates through the SQL editor. Previously, all changes were saved automatically.
Sheet-to-sheet connections across workspaces
We’ve updated the spreadsheet connections panel so that sheets can be easily connected across workspaces. This means a sheet in Workspace A can connect to a separate sheet in Workspace B; the sheet designated as the “source” sheet will then update the data in the destination sheet.
