Changelog - August Update

This month’s update brings two major new features: Custom Columns, giving you the flexibility to add your own fields to any dataset with powerful expressions, and the brand new RollUp data source, which lets you see the health of your workspaces and dashboards at a glance.

We’ve also delivered a refreshed navigation bar, smoother chart defaults, clearer data source error handling, and plenty of plugin upgrades - from new Azure policy compliance and GitHub dashboards, to HaloPSA, and fresh out-of-the-box streams for UptimeRobot and Zendesk. As always, lots of bugs have been squashed along the way to keep things running smoothly!
