It’s the end of the month, so it’s time for a new take on an old classic! Welcome to the February Curator release notes. Key new features we added this release are listed here in more detail, so you can explore and try them out for yourselves.
Think of it like we’re upgrading your monkeys in Bloons TD6 (for our flash game fans out there!) We’re giving you better stats, abilities and more to make sure you’re popping those pesky bloons better and faster. Or, you know, sharing those dashboards better and faster too. Whichever works.

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.
If you’ve got users reporting access issues, your first stop on the road to resolution should be the User Menu Access button. This feature gives you a snapshot view of any given user’s current menu structure, as well as their permissions status for all the content within that menu.
