DataLion Release 2025.2.185 – revamped sharing & embedding, cleaner reports, smarter filters

🚀 Highlights

Sharing & Embedding, Reimagined — We’ve completely overhauled how dashboard sharing and embedding works. Cleaner URLs, more reliable authentication, and a smoother experience for everyone — whether you’re sharing with colleagues or embedding dashboards for your clients.

✨ What’s New

  • 🔗 Smarter share links: Ever shared a report link and the recipient ended up on the wrong page after logging in? Not anymore! Unauthenticated users are now redirected straight to the shared report — zero friction, zero confusion.

  • 👁️ Clean shared reports: Sharing a report with external stakeholders? You can now hide the navigation buttons for a sleek, presentation-ready view. Find this option in your dashboard’s share settings.

  • 📊 “Different base” warning control: Got pie charts where the “different base” warning is more noise than signal? A new setting lets you hide it. Head to Admin → Projects → Settings → Value Display and toggle “Hide different base warning”.

  • 🔍 Sorted filter lists: Excluded questions in global filter dropdowns are now sorted alphabetically — finding the right filter just got a lot easier.

📈 Improvements

  • PDF report export now runs in the background, so you can keep working while your reports are being generated. No more waiting around!
  • Benchmark filters now support selecting multiple values at once — power users, rejoice!
  • Codebook export validates visibility settings more strictly, preventing items with invalid display values from sneaking through.
  • Grid layout changes are automatically cleared from your browser when you navigate away — no more stale layouts reappearing unexpectedly.

🐛 Bug Fixes

  • Fixed tooltip display issues on certain chart types.
  • Improved pie chart source warning behavior.
  • Fixed category axis label rendering.
