The new PostgreSQL data source allows you to query and visualize data from a PostgreSQL-compatible database. It supports connections to both on-premise and publicly accessible instances. 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.

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:

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!

We've extended the tile editor to support sorting by multiple columns. This is a highly requested feature and helps with cases where you'd first like to sort by a label, and then by a value for example.
It's worth noting that the sorting will carry through into the visualization, meaning you can choose how to sort the bars on a bar chart, or the series on a stacked bar or line chart.

We’ve just launched a powerful new way to compare data - whether it’s tracking support tickets, monitoring cloud spend or keeping an eye on DORA metrics.
With just a few clicks, you can:
  • Compare metrics like tickets this month vs. last month (from Zendesk, Jira, HaloPSA etc.)
  • Track cloud costs vs. budget or month-over-month spending
  • Visualize changes using our scalar tile, overlaying colour for easy insights
And this is just the start - in the future, you’ll be able to combine data from multiple sources
without writing SQL
and add
custom calculations
beyond a comparison.
📺 Watch the demo below to see how it works!
When working with data that includes a date/time column, there are now more options for filtering the data. For example, showing SSL certificates that are expiring in the next 30 days, or showing Jira tickets closed in the last week.
You can now filter dates using three new operators:
  • is more than [x] [days/weeks/months] [ago/from now]
  • within last [x] [days/weeks/months]
  • within next [x] [days/weeks/months]
This now covers many more use cases and enables greater control over the data you're visualizing. If you've got additional cases that aren't covered by these new operators then drop us an email, or try SQL Analytics for complete control over your datasets.

When SquaredUp connects to a new data source, it can sometimes take a couple of minutes to index the various resources and objects. During this time, you can browse any sample dashboards that were installed but they often error or display 'No data to show' as they rely on the indexing process.
We've updated this experience to make it clearer that a data source is still indexing, or flag more clearly when a data source has failed to index. When visiting a sample dashboard you'll see a modal indicating it's in progress or has failed, a link to view further information on the data source page.

We've recently shipped a few small improvements to our fullscreen view. The most notable of these is that we'll launch the fullscreen when interacting with the visualization (unless there is a better drilldown/view to show). For example, when clicking on a donut chart we'll launch the fullscreen view so you can easily see the data behind the visualization. Alongside this we've also shipped the following improvements:
* Added resizable sections to allow you to focus on either the viz or data
* Added table search functionality
* Added a close button for clearer UX
* Displaying data stream warnings
Check out the changes:
It's now even easier to rename your dashboards. You no longer need to enter edit mode to rename a dashboard. As long as you have permission to do so, just click the title and rename!
