 Performance and quality enhancements

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.

• PowerMetrics: To add clarity for single PowerMetric charts that include multiple metrics, when you add one to a dashboard, its name includes the names of all of the metrics within it (in the order you added them and in the order in which they display). If desired, you can modify the name afterward to suit your data story.

• 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.
