DataLion Release 2025.2.185 - revamped sharing & embedding, cleaner reports, smarter filters

πŸš€ Highlights

Sharing & Embedding, Reimagined -- We've completely overhauled how dashboard sharing and embedding works. Cleaner URLs, more reliable authentication, and a smoother experience for everyone -- whether you're sharing with colleagues or embedding dashboards for your clients.

✨ What's New

  • πŸ”— Smarter share links: Ever shared a report link and the recipient ended up on the wrong page after logging in? Not anymore! Unauthenticated users are now redirected straight to the shared report -- zero friction, zero confusion.

  • πŸ‘οΈ Clean shared reports: Sharing a report with external stakeholders? You can now hide the navigation buttons for a sleek, presentation-ready view. Find this option in your dashboard's share settings.

  • πŸ“Š "Different base" warning control: Got pie charts where the "different base" warning is more noise than signal? A new setting lets you hide it. Head to Admin β†’ Projects β†’ Settings β†’ Value Display and toggle "Hide different base warning".

  • πŸ” Sorted filter lists: Excluded questions in global filter dropdowns are now sorted alphabetically -- finding the right filter just got a lot easier.

πŸ“ˆ Improvements

  • PDF report export now runs in the background, so you can keep working while your reports are being generated. No more waiting around!
  • Benchmark filters now support selecting multiple values at once -- power users, rejoice!
  • Codebook export validates visibility settings more strictly, preventing items with invalid display values from sneaking through.
  • Grid layout changes are automatically cleared from your browser when you navigate away -- no more stale layouts reappearing unexpectedly.

πŸ› Bug Fixes

  • Fixed tooltip display issues on certain chart types.
  • Improved pie chart source warning behavior.
  • Fixed category axis label rendering.
