What's New in Zoho Analytics - August 2024

Hello Users!

We are back with the latest updates and enhancements made to Zoho Analytics. Keep reading to learn more about them.

Connect to the data hosted in the cloud without allow-listing the IP addresses

Utilize Zoho Databridge to connect to the data hosted in the cloud. This method is useful for accessing the data in the private network without the need to allowlist the IP addresses. We have also revamped the user interface of the Databases and Datalakes page to establish a connection with the preferred data source seamlessly.

New in-built function for JSON

Extract data from JSON columns from within Zoho Analytics using the new built-in function extract_json().



String data type in report formulas

Zoho Analytics now supports plain text data types in report formulas. This feature is useful for categorizing numeric data values based on conditions, such as performance tracking and segmenting data.


Conditional formatting based on other columns

With the recent update, you can now apply conditional formatting based on other columns used in the pivot table. This enhancement provides more flexibility and makes comparison between the related columns easier.

Dashboards

The following are the enhancements made to the dashboard functionality

Static images and custom icons in KPI widgets

Add custom icons to provide visual cues about the type of information contained in the widget without the need for lengthy descriptions. Using icons in the dashboard enhances visual appeal and grabs the attention of the users.

Copy and paste reports in dashboards

Zoho Analytics allows you to reuse reports and KPI widgets by copying and pasting reports to other tabs in the dashboards. This cuts down the redundant work and saves time recreating similar reports.



Sharing views created by users with admin

Users can share the reports created by them with Administrators. (Until now, this wasn't possible). The views shared by the users will be listed under the Shared Views folder for the administrator, with the name of the user who shared the report.



Add-ons for Zoho CRM and Zoho Books ultimate plans

Users in the Ultimate plan of Zoho CRM, Zoho Books, and Zoho Inventory can purchase additional rows and users from the online store.
