Performance and quality enhancements

New:

  • Our BigQuery connector now supports pagination, increasing the number of records you can retrieve with your query. Note that data source size limits may impact the number of records returned.
  • Due to Shopify API updates, you may need to modify your existing queries to support cursor-based pagination.
  • Instagram has drastically reduced the amount of data that’s accessible through their basic API. We’ve unpublished our basic Instagram connector and recommend you use our Instagram Business connector instead. Learn more here.

New:

• Klipfolio Apps Selector/Switcher: Access Klipfolio Klips, Klipfolio PowerMetrics, and MetricHQ from our new product selector located at the bottom of the left navigation sidebar. Learn more here.
• Formulas in the Klip Editor and when Modelling a Data Source: We’ve simplified formula building! In the past, if you were modelling or working in the Klip Editor with a data source that returned JSON data and that data included special characters, you had to manipulate the formula to return your data correctly. Now, when JSON data includes special characters, the returned XPath formula automatically accounts for this, without the need for advanced knowledge or formula editing.
