This release brings two headline updates — a with a simpler three-stream model (Alerts, Health, Metrics) and significant performance gains, and the release of , our AI assistant for writing JQL/KQL/MSSQL queries and SQL Analytics queries directly inside the tile editor. We've also shipped a wave of dashboarding improvements — including with auto decimal places and thousands separator control, , , and a friendlier KPI experience. On the plugins side, expect cleaner data streams across , plus a more powerful plugin. 🎉

✨ SmartAssist: write queries with AI assistance: generate JQL, KQL, MSSQL and SQL Analytics queries from plain-language prompts (SAAS-9062).

🛠️ SCOM data source: major updates: a consolidated three-stream model (Alerts, Health, Metrics) with faster imports and cleaner selection (PLUG-3922, PLUG-4604).

🔢 Smarter number formatting: auto decimal places and a new thousands separator toggle give you more control over how values display in numeric columns.

Numeric columns now give you more control over how values are displayed — with smarter defaults for the common cases.

Number columns now automatically detect the right number of decimal places. Columns containing only whole numbers (IDs, counts, durations) no longer show an unnecessary . Columns with up to one decimal place show one, and everything else stays at two. You can still set an explicit value when you need it.

A new thousands separator toggle in the Columns tab lets you control whether large numbers show a separator (typically a comma or period). It's on by default — so existing tiles are unaffected — but you can turn it off for columns that hold identifiers where separators would be misleading (e.g. a ticket ID showing as instead of ).

The updated SCOM plugin introduces a simpler, smarter data model with three consolidated data sources: Alerts, Health, and Metrics, replacing the previous streams. This reduces setup complexity and noise, while cleaner object, metric, and alert selection makes dashboard creation more intuitive.

Performance has been significantly improved, with faster imports and more efficient stream processing delivering quicker, more responsive dashboards. A new cacheMode option provides advanced tuning for specialised scenarios (with Support guidance), and existing tiles will continue to work using deprecated streams, giving users time to transition.

Writing SQL to get data onto a dashboard shouldn't require being a SQL expert. SmartAssist is an AI assistant built directly into SquaredUp's tile editor that helps you build queries faster, without needing to know the syntax or even the language. It can be used in two distinct areas:

Connect to HaloITSM — a popular IT Service Management tool — and visualize data without writing code or complex queries.

This plugin is similar to the HaloPSA data source, but specialised for HaloITSM.

Supports:

This release introduces a series of , including request troubleshooting, allowing inspection of raw request and response details directly from tiles, along with broader improvements to authentication handling, error visibility, and stability.

We’ve also added new plugins for (enabling DSL-based querying of OpenSearch databases) and

Elsewhere, this release includes a wide range of , including bug fixes, stability enhancements, and general usability refinements across integrations such as Azure, AWS, GitHub, Jira, Dynatrace, Zendesk, Microsoft 365. 🎉

🐞 Troubleshooting Web API requests: Inspect the raw request and response details behind your Web API tiles.

🔍 OpenSearch data source: visualise key data from OpenSearch databases using DSL queries.

🔍 HaloITSM data source: visualise key metrics from your tickets and reports.

You can now inspect the raw request and response details behind your Web API tiles. When troubleshooting a tile using the Web API data source, a new troubleshooting panel in the tile editor surfaces structured debug information — including HTTP headers, request body, and response data — so you can quickly pinpoint issues like misconfigured pagination, unexpected response shapes, or missing headers.

It's particularly useful when:

OpenSearch is an Apache 2.0 fork of Elasticsearch, backed by AWS. The new OpenSearch data source enables querying of OpenSearch databases using DSL (Domain Specific Language) queries.

This is a SquaredUp Labs plugin using the new Low Code Plugins (LCP) framework – feedback from the user community is welcome!

This release brings group permissions for admin-controlled access management, and one-click expression insert to speed up tile editing. Other enhancements include negative value support in stacked bar charts, Lodash in Web API response scripts, and smarter rate limit handling. A wide range of bug fixes improves stability across KPIs, timeframes, SQL Analytics, and several visualisation types. Plugin updates cover 13 integrations, with highlights including new HaloPSA out-of-the-box dashboards, KQL and JQL language markup support for Azure and Jira, and a column picker for HaloPSA Tickets.

🔒 Group permissions: Admins can now control who can perform key actions in SquaredUp.

🧑‍💻 Insert expressions with a single click: Expressions are now even easier to work with in the tile editor!

Expressions let you reference dynamic values, like the current timeframe or dashboard variable, directly within a tile. They're especially powerful when building custom integrations with the Web API data source. To make them easier to use, we've added a new button wherever expressions are supported.

Tip: If your dashboard includes a variable, you'll see additional expressions available to insert.
