Microsoft 365 improvements
We’ve supercharged our Microsoft 365 data source with 8 new out-of-the-box dashboards, covering License Usage, Teams, Outlook, Copilot, and more. We've also added relay agent support for secure on-premise access, fixed timeout issues, and improved default timeframes and paging for a smoother experience.

Temporarily silence alerts during planned maintenance or known noisy periods. No need to delete or reconfigure. Simply pause individual notification rules in your workspace with one click, and resume when you're ready.

Changelog - March Update
In March we released a new
InfluxDB plugin
, enabling users to query and visualize time-series data. Alongside that new plugin, we've been busy improving existing plugins too: Jira Query Language
(JQL) data streams have been enhanced for faster performance, smarter paging, and clearer warnings when data is incomplete, and the Azure Cost
data streams now auto-retry and show progress when requests are throttled, while caching improvements ensure longer-lived metrics like cloud cost are retained for better analysis. We also added better validation when setting up several plugins, including UptimeRobot
and MySQL
.Beyond the feature updates and bug fixes, we've also tweaked our pricing model this month. Shared dashboards are now available on our Free and Starter plans - read more about how we're making SquaredUp even more affordable and flexible below 🎉

The new InfluxDB data source lets you query and visualize time-series data from your InfluxDB instance. It supports connections to both cloud-hosted and on-premise databases. The integration offers two data streams: metric queries (for example to chart trends over time), and table queries for displaying raw data on dashboards. Ideal for monitoring infrastructure, application metrics and more.

If an API returns a 429 (Too Many Requests) error, we now display a progress bar indicator while the tile loads.
- For Azure cost data streams, the progress bar will remain visible until all data is retrieved, based on the API's throttling response. Additionally, a 24-hour cache is maintained to improve efficiency and reduce unnecessary API calls.
- For other data streams, the progress bar will display for up to 30 seconds, before retrying up to 3 times, after which a throttling message will appear.

The integration offers three types of data streams: table queries for displaying tabular results on a dashboard, metric queries for graphing metrics, and state queries for rollups and health tiles.

The new Snyk data source allows you to monitor and visualize security issues from your Snyk environment. It supports connections to your Snyk organization(s) and provides key insights out-of-the-box, including issue counts by priority, time to resolve, and open issues. The integration offers four types of data streams for reporting on security issues and statistics, enabling you to track vulnerabilities, measure risk, and improve security posture across your projects.

Congratulations if you've read this far (and thank you!) - if you're looking for more SquaredUp updates, check out some recent posts from our blog:
- How Evidi built the perfect MSP single pane of glass
- Dashboarding your KQL queries
- Getting eyes on your KPIs

Here at SquaredUp we believe that someone says "I need a dashboard", they're not just asking for another static, dead-end view – they're really asking for something more. User's demand a dynamic experience – one where you can explore data, drill down into specifics and gain real insights without hitting a dead end.
With that in mind, we've just extended our drill down capabilities to nearly all of our visualisations. Users can now drill down to relevant objects and data from: Line charts, Bar charts, Donut charts, Tables as well as the Blocks visualisation. Coupled with our Data Explorer, this provides users with the capability to dig into the data, find out more about a specific object such as a VM or Web App and gain real insight. No more dead-ends!
