A new year is bringing big changes to Curator! We’re always on the lookout for ways to improve and unify your data experience—not only on the frontend for your users but also on the backend for you and other admins. We’re thrilled to announce the new features included in the January release of Curator. In the video below, I walk through all of the changes, including:
- Enhanced layout and navigation, like improvements to Page Builder
- Customized security options tailored for each instance
- Central Dispatch – a controller for multiple Curator instances
- Streamlined and seamless group syncing from Tableau
- System checks, new login screen and more!
See firsthand what’s now available for your Curator users by watching the video, and be sure to let us know what you think, so we can continue to improve and support you with the best Curator experience possible.
Managing a self-hosted web platform can be time-consuming, costly, and complex. If you’re currently self-hosting Curator, migrating to our SaaS platform can unlock a world of advantages designed to make your analytics experience seamless and hassle-free, freeing your team to create further impact on your business.
Recently, Tableau has been encouraging the use of connected apps for external applications, instead of using trusted tickets. All of Tableau’s recent embedding features require connected apps. Since this only deals with behind the scenes authentication, there is no impact to the end user. In our effort to remain closely aligned with Tableau, Curator is transitioning to only using connected apps.
Curator has added the feature to be able to send mark commenting data to a webhook. With the widespread use of API integration platforms, this really opens the doorway to virtually unlimited use cases.
