  • Distribution view is now generally available. See Analyze a distribution in the User's Guide.

  • Chart hover cards have been redesigned for better readability, especially for numbers.

Additional improvements

Scuba 4.4 contains the following additional improvements:

  • The Every aggregation can now aggregate over a set. See Compare actor or flow properties on the fly with sets in the User's Guide.

  • An Scuba admin can now ask to hide the query share button in Explore and apps, which copies a query URL for sharing in an external messaging application. This discourages users from sharing queries that use properties that others do not have access to, especially in a cluster with a strict RBAC model. To hide the query share button, contact your technical account manager. See Share an object with other users in the User's Guide.

  • Improvements to the advanced filter expression builder:

    • Flow operations are now validated.

    • Better support for static values functions and day of week strings in MATCHES.

    • Improved validation in MATCHES.

    • Fixed a bug where parentheses were not being respected.

    • Fixed a bug, and also provide suggestions with filtering to an event flow step.

    • Context-based typeahead suggestions.
      See Calculate measures and filter in the expression builder in the User's Guide.

  • The default limit in the retention app has changed from 25 to 10. See Analyze user retention or engagement with the retention module in the User's Guide.

  • The table view context menu now lets you filter to, filter out, or view a trend. This is consistent with context menus in other views

  • The CLI flag for deleting a folder (time range) changed from --i'm-feeling-lucky to --by-folder for clarity. See the CLI reference in the Admin Guide.

  • Moved schedule server processes into subprocesses for better visibility into memory usage.

Resolved issues 

Scuba 4.4 contains the following resolved issues:

  • The following issues around boards:

    • Fixed a bug preventing panels from being renamed.

    • Chart controls on a pinned panel can now be edited.

    • Fixed a bug where creating a new, empty board included the last panel you pinned to a different board.

    • Improved load time of boards with several (cached) panels

  • Corrected some confusing behavior where your cursor would turn into a pointer so it looks like a part of the UI is clickable, when it in fact is not clickable. The fix means that the cursor no longer turns into a pointer in those locations, as follows:

    • The name of an app when you're in the app.

    • In Admin > Boards, the entries in the list of panels and the list of emailed reports.

  • The following issues related to queries:

    • The percentile function now works in BAQL.

    • Fixed an issue in which different trailing windows in a multimeasure query (where each measure has a different trailing window) were not being respected.

    • Dropdown list with "Flow ends after inactivity" is now in a more reasonable order.

    • Fixed a race condition that was causing query results to load slowly in the UI.

    • Fixed a bug with opening the URL to a query that uses a regex filter on a lookup column.

    • Fixed a bug that showed an error if a pre-filter used a lookup property that was sharded (that is, a lookup property joined to an actor).

  • Improvements to distribution view:

    • Improved rounding behavior for x-axis numbers greater than 100

    • The maximum number of group by bins increased from 100 to 1000.

  • Improvements to A/B view:

    • Fixed a bug related to time windows.

  • Fixed issues related to operations:

    • Fixed a bug with exporting a knowledge object that has been copied from a since-deleted knowledge object.

    • Improved import performance for data with many columns.

    • Empty columns that look like the base node of a URL are now hidden from the UI.

    • Removed requirement of cluster downtime while provisioning new nodes.

    • Changing a password at the CLI (without single sign-on) no longer requires sending an email.
