Workspace Explorer Enhancements

Enhancement

Moving views across folders has now become easy. You can select multiple views from across folders, and move them to a folder within a Workspace. Also, you can now move the parent folder as a sub-folder and move sub-folders from one folder to another within a Workspace.

Another handy feature that has been added is that you can favorite your most accessed reports and dashboards from the left navigation menu bar.

Enhancement in "Similar to Another Table"

Enhancement

Similar to another table has been a handy feature, which helps you to create similar reports on a single click, over a new table, similar to the ones already created over an existing table. So far it has supported creating reports only on a single table, not considering the connected tables. This limitation has been removed. From now on, you can create similar reports based on connected tables as well.
