What’s New in Zoho Analytics – December 2025

What’s New in Zoho Analytics – December 2025

December is a special time of the year to celebrate progress, reflect on what we have achieved, and prepare for what’s ahead!
As we wrap up the year, this month’s updates focus on refining experiences, strengthening analytics workflows, and setting the stage for a smarter start to the new year.
Here’s what’s new this month!


Multi-Table Auto Analysis 

Auto Analysis now supports multiple related tables based on the model (Star schema). 

Reports and dashboards generated through Auto Analysis can use data from related tables, enabling more comprehensive analysis and deeper insights without manual report creation.


GenAI Updates 

Ask Zia Actions

Ask Zia now supports actions such as Export, Share, and Schedule when using Zoho LLM, extending capabilities that were previously available only with OpenAI

This allows you to take immediate action on insights generated by Zia, making it easier to share results and automate report delivery.

Embedding support by Zoho LLM

Zoho LLM now supports embeddings for GenAI skills in the US, EU, and IN data centers. This centralizes embedding support within Zoho LLM and removes the need to configure OpenAI credentials.


Improved PDF Export 

We have enhanced PDF exports to ensure dashboards maintain their visual integrity. 
  1. Images embedded within widgets are now included in PDF exports along with all applied image customizations.
  2. When exporting dashboards, report card backgrounds now retain the same opacity as in the original dashboard, ensuring visual consistency in PDFs.

New Connectors 

Zoho Analytics now supports new integrations with FreshBooksZoho Voice, and Zoho Shifts, enabling you to bring in data from additional business applications for unified reporting and analysis.
In addition, new modules are now supported for Zoho Inventory, including Zone, Bin Locations, Batch Bin Mapping, and Bin Transactions, helping you analyze inventory-related data in greater detail.

MCP Server Extensibility 

The Zoho Analytics MCP Server can now be installed via NPM (Node Package Manager) package, making deployment and updates significantly simpler and developer-friendly.


Data Connectivity Updates 

Zoho Analytics now supports Databricks (Local and Cloud servers) and ClickHouse (Local server) through Live Connect. This allows you to analyze data directly from these databases in real time, without importing data into Zoho Analytics.
