What's new in Data Visualization 7.2.0

New visual type: Artificial Intelligence (AI) Assistant [Technical Preview]

The AI Assistant introduces a natural language interface for interacting with dashboards and datasets. The new visual type is available for SQLite and Solr data connections that contain vectorized column information that you would like to use for creating a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) chatbot. Data upload is now also available for Solr data connections, with support for vectorized fields in Solr 9.0+. For more information, see the AI Assistant documentation.

Administrators or users with Additional system privilege can now easily move dashboards and apps to any workspace, including private ones.

Application-wide performance improvements, including enhancements at application startup, during dashboard editing, and to loading the Data and Job Status interfaces.

The Visuals page has been redesigned for quicker loading and enhanced usability.

The Reorder sheet IDs to match positions option has been added to dashboards with multiple sheets. You can use this setting to update sheet numbers if a sheet is moved or deleted. For more information, see Reordering sheet IDs.
