We often hear that customers want greater flexibility in how you curate your workspace, and build knowledge about your data. To that end, we are excited to announce the release of our new “Workstream Docs” asset type.

Think of them as Google docs that also support embedding live data assets (i.e, dashboards, reports, etc). Among many suggested use cases (see below), you can use them to assemble a periodic insight, or summarize a collection of assets available for a specific team.

With their ability to combine embedded assets, text, and video, we have already spoken to folks about a number of potential use cases:

  • A rundown of periodic insights for the company or a specific team
  • Read me documentation as part of a collection
  • Training path of a set of assets used for employee onboarding
  • An exploratory analysis encompassing assets from several different tools

The feature is currently in alpha, so expect many improvements in the coming months. We look forward to seeing how you make the most out of this new way of curating and sharing data knowledge!
