Changelog

Creator Mode lets you embed the full Cube application into your product, so your users can build and modify their own dashboards without leaving your app. Instead of embedding a single dashboard or chat interface, you give users the complete Cube experience — creating and updating workbooks, publishing them as dashboards, and sharing them with their team.

Creator Mode is isolated on a per-tenant basis and supports additional layers such as groups inside tenants, so you can model your customers and their teams cleanly. It also supports customization at both the dashboard and application levels, so you can bring your own design system into Cube.

We're continuing to invest in Creator Mode and plan to add interactivity via events for building interactive experiences, as well as support for scheduled notifications.

Workspace

You can now drag and drop Workbooks and Dashboards into folders in the Workspace.

To get started, a workspace admin connects Slack from Settings → Integrations → Slack and selects a deployment and agent to power responses. Learn more.

Other improvements and fixes:

• You can now attach files (not only images) to chat
• Relative time filters are now supported on Dashboards
• Workbook Version History now shows the current draft
• Dashboard builder supports undo / redo via hotkeys

• Result table can optionally be colored with alternating rows
• You can now duplicate a Workbook from the Workspace
• You can copy tabs from one Workbook to another via copy to clipboard

The documentation website has been updated with improved structure, search, readability, and mobile support. It also includes an AI-powered chat — ask the assistant your documentation questions directly from the docs.

Other improvements and fixes:

• You can now copy Explore and Workbook tabs to the clipboard and paste them into a different workbook
• You can now search folders and explorations in the Workspace
• Added sorting to the Workspace
• MCP responses now include raw data
• Added Claude Sonnet 4.6 support for BYOM
• You can now create filtered measures directly from the pivot UI
• Chats automatically restart after a browser network disconnect

• Context window usage is now visible in the chat interface next to the send button

Data masking is now integrated with access policies and supports both static and dynamic masking. With data masking, you can return masked values for restricted members instead of denying access entirely. Users who don't have full access to a member will see a transformed value (e.g., ***, -1, NULL) rather than receiving an error.

To use data masking, define a mask parameter on dimensions or measures, and add member_masking to your access policy alongside member_level. Members in member_level get real values; members not in member_level but in member_masking get masked values; members in neither are denied.

Data masking is available in Cube Core starting from v1.6.23.

Image Attachments in Chat

You can now attach images to your chats in data model, workbooks, dashboards, and analytics chat. Show the AI a chart and ask it to create a similar one, or share an ERD diagram and ask it to turn it into a Cube data model.

Other improvements and fixes:

• Semantic modeling agent can now read query history to debug failed queries
• Power BI integration can now automatically authorize users present in Cube and use their defined user attributes and groups in data access policies
• Updated pagination across multiple pages
• Minor UI updates to improve consistency and readability

You can now send email or Slack notifications with a screenshot of a dashboard after each scheduled refresh. This is useful for distributing regular updates to stakeholders without requiring them to log in.

Notifications are configured as part of a scheduled refresh. When creating or editing a schedule, click Add notification to expand the notification configuration. Choose between email and Slack delivery channels, and attach a dashboard screenshot as PNG or PDF.

Email notifications are sent to selected workspace users with a link to the dashboard and the attached screenshot. Slack notifications post a message with the screenshot to a selected channel — just connect your Slack workspace via a one-time OAuth flow to get started.

Notifications are available on Premium and Enterprise plans.

Personal Core Data API Token

Cube users can now generate a personal token to authenticate SQL API connections directly from external tools like BI dashboards, notebooks, and SQL clients. The token carries the user's identity, so all groups, user attributes, and data access policies are automatically applied to every query.

Navigate to Preferences → Personal Core Data API Token and click Generate Token.

Other improvements and fixes:

• Workbooks page has been renamed to "Workspace" and now displays reports created in Google Sheets and Excel add-ons
• Reference lines support in charts builder
• Various fixes to charts and visualizations
• Improvements to workbook filters

A new Viewer role is now available for users who need quick access to data without the complexity of data exploration or workbook creation. Viewers can browse dashboards, use Analytics Chat, and query Cube semantic models from external tools like Tableau and Power BI.

This role is ideal for business stakeholders who want to consume analytics without managing data models or building reports.

The Viewer role is available on the Premium plan.

Other improvements and fixes:

• Share content (workbooks, dashboards) with groups, not just individual users
• Improvements to data labels and dual axis charts
• SCIM now supports user attributes sync
• Certified queries can now be edited
