6 Commits • 4 Features
Oct 1, 2025Month 2025-10 - Metabase/Metabase: Consolidated delivery across data export accuracy, test automation, and UX improvements with targeted testing workflows and cleaner logs. Key features delivered include a Mage NREPL Test Runner enabling running tests via the nREPL server (with documentation/utilities updates); pivot table download that now matches columns using source alias names (including tests for long column names); and dashboard search enhancements with data cleanup to surface verified dashboards while removing deleted data from results. A serialization logging refactor reduces log noise by emitting messages only when an entity is actively loaded from export to the database. A bug fix was implemented to disable comments inside embedded iframes to improve UX, supported by end-to-end tests. Overall, these changes improve developer efficiency, data accuracy, user discovery, and UX stability, while optimizing log signal and test feedback loops.

Sep 1, 2025For 2025-09, Metabase delivered a focused set of core features, performance improvements, and testing enhancements across the metabase/metabase repository. Key features delivered include Metabot Usage Tracking and API Enhancements with persistent storage for conversations and tokens, daily usage reporting, usage date context, default stats, and API/schema adjustments for tool_calls and streaming endpoints, enabling accurate analytics and improved integration. Additional highlights include User Mentions in Documents with mentionable entities support and sandboxed tests; Database performance optimization via an index on report_card.type; Serialization/export improvements for NativeQuerySnippets ensuring exports work when snippets are within requested collections or as dependencies; CamelCase search improvements with explode-camel-case for faster, more relevant search results; Premium token testing utilities with improved testing utilities and stubs for premium token checks; and the Athena JDBC driver dependency update from 3.5.1 to 3.6.0 for compatibility and stability. Major bugs fixed include fixes to the metabot token count query, reporting of usage dates, prevention of recursive token checks in Metabot stats, correcting tool_calls to be treated as a vector, and improved export reliability for NativeQuerySnippets when collections or dependencies are involved.

Dec 1, 20242024-12 monthly review for metabase/metabase: Delivered three core enhancements across export, search indexing observability, and API documentation. Serialization Export Enhancements increase reliability by accepting 21-character IDs without the 'eid:' prefix, improve error messaging, harden dashboard exports, and broaden test coverage for multi-collection exports; Search Indexing Performance Monitoring adds a Prometheus metric to track total indexing time and updates logging/metrics reporting; OpenAPI Schema Simplification and Compatibility reduces oneOf/allOf usage, introduces helpers to transform schemas and improve handling of files and nested structures for better OpenAPI viewer compatibility. These changes improve reliability, observability, and developer experience, delivering tangible business value by reducing export failures, enabling performance monitoring, and simplifying API consumption.
