Resize Columns in ETL Tab of Data Readers
Maybe we are unique in having a field that is very long, but having the ability to manually change the width of columns in the ETL would be fantastic. We have different combinations of materials that can go into our goods, all depending on what has been ordered. In order to make this happen and price things appropriately,…

Flat data table for enduser
There should be a possibility for endusers to adjust a data table to a flat data table by theirselves. Due to the quick layout (and the possibility to drag several entities in the rows) it might be useful to adjust a "normal" table to a flat data table in play mode for a better overview.

GeoMap improvements
compared to geo maps in other bi tools (Qlik, Tableau etc.) - the BOARD object is way to clumsy and underperforming. More design options like have a kind of head map per country/region instead of bubbles. Also more available maps (not only google maps and one other) would be great.

Write-API for Data-Models to enable Infrastructure as Code
Currently, all elements are manually updated via the UI. However, we would rather like to have a possibility to create entities, kubes, relationships etc. with an API. This would enable us also to provision our data models using infrastructure as code (e.g. Terraform). As e.g. Terraform can also be used to provision…

Description field for Cubes and Entities
In the datamodel, there should be a field "description" for each cube and entity. This would help documenting the purpose of each cube and entity. This would help the maintenance and the transfer of knowledge. for any developer, the good practice is to write comments in the code. This should be the same for Board:…

Waterfall chart - hide variances that equal 0

Warning Message in the Board Application when Max Item number has reached
Hi Team, could we have some sort of a warning message or a notification (in the Board application UI) when any of the entities are at 100% or have crossed the 100% saturation. There have been instances in projects when the entities have crossed beyond 100% like at 120% and the implementation team or the users are unaware…

Defining Temporary cubes "on the fly"
When I write a procedure, I find it tedious to define a temporary cube when I want to implement/change a data flow. In particular I dislike that I have to leave the procedure, define the temporary cube and open the procedure again. Please implement the following feature: In the window where one can define a new data flow…

Queque for parallel Rest API Calls
Here is an additional feature I like to suggest: Consider a procedure P that uses Rest API Calls to start 10 procedures in parallel. I wish there was a comfortable way of telling Procedure P that the 10 procedures called via Rest API are finished such that P waits automatically until all 10 procedures are finished and…

It would be helpful if it would either not let you save the connection if the alias is too long, or at least show an information about this below.…

Button: add rollover color for Font
Hi, simple as that: as you could change the rollover color for the background of a button already, it would be great to also add rollover colors for the text / font. This would help avoid using several layers for the same effect. Thanks! Mads

Delete inaccessible data model command for Board Cloud Administrator
When a data model becomes inaccessible (e.g., due to data corruption), the data model "Delete" command on the GUI is greyed out. This prevents the creation of a new data model with the same name, when there are no usable backups that can be restored. Currently, the only option for Board Cloud users is to create a Support…

Drill-down feature on a chart
The idea is to enhance interaction with charts, enabling navigation of the entity tree. As a front end user, I would like to be able to expand (and also aggregate) on the default dimension set in the graph. In order to give an idea of the use cases, I am thinking at this kind of competitor's feature: power BI drill down on…
