Re: Domo Community Declining - Oliver to Blame?
if i'm honest, i just don't have anything to say. :D
i think you're right, claude, slack, chatbots trivialized getting answers to simple questions, and honestly most of community-forums WAS easy answers that many times could be googled, or were variants of the same three or four questions, so after you built a youtube or had the canned answer … it was pretty easy to … not have to rely on community.
but i would offer that the onus is then on community and community shapers to do something different with this space.
if claude and ai can trivialize getting answers to questions what do you do with that free time? do YOU share about projects and stuff you are working on?
i don't think as a community we can have TONS of lurkers and then be surprised when the community quietly dies. honestly i love coming here and participating in this space, but i'm frequently uninspired by the discourse.
THIS question caught my attention though :D and maybe we need more of that … questions that capture attention and cannot be answered by a chatbot. — although @ellibot will say, my slack bot is pretty good ;)
if it could be different how would it be different? claude and AI can save 5 to 15 minutes if not hours out of your googling and struggles… so do YOU make time to do something with it? make content that is not AI slop so the model gets smarter ;) or post thoughtful responses to thought provoking questions?
low key i think AI has turned us into extractors. where we just want to extract the knowledge as fast as we can… but we should also consider using our freed up time to put something back into the system. but what?
Governance uglier and more important with AI?
I've been running into more and more conversations inside the walls at Domo about the impact AI is having on the importance of Data Governance. It seems that we are working through that inside our own biz, and that we're hearing more and more about it among our customers.
What are you doing at your company to help assure that people now armed with "AI" in all kinds of forms can be confident they're working apples-to-apples inside your business?
Release Notes: Knowledge Base Updates (v2.20.0)
Hello everyone!
We're excited to announce that version 2.20.0 of the Domo Documentation Hub is now available! This release sharpens our DataSet sharing guidance, keeps connector documentation current with upstream API changes, and adds a fresh batch of microlearning videos. You can view these changes in our knowledge base at www.domo.com/docs.
🌟 What's New
📊 Clearer DataSet Sharing and Access Rights
The Share a DataSet article got a significant accuracy pass. The Access Rights table now correctly reflects that Editors can change dataset configurations, and that Can Share users can view all data in the dataset (subject to PDP policy). The article was also reformatted with corrected icons, links, and note styling so it's easier to scan. See the updated guidance on sharing a DataSet.
🔌 Connector Documentation Updates
- The Facebook Advanced Connector article now includes an important notice about Facebook metrics being deprecated on June 30, 2026, with a table mapping each deprecated metric to its replacement so customers can update datasets and reports ahead of the change. Read the full details in the Facebook Advanced Connector article.
- The Commission Junction Connector prerequisites were updated to reflect CJ's move from an API key to a Personal Access Token. See the current setup steps in the Commission Junction Connector article.
- The Neurio connector was repositioned alphabetically in the navigation between NetSuite and New Relic.
🎓 New Microlearning Videos
The Domo Video Library picked up a new set of microlearning videos this release, including a Managing DataFlows series (dataflow details, history, naming and tagging, scheduling and triggering, and sharing), SQL-based DataFlows using the SQL DataFlow interface, and consumption and distribution topics. Browse them all in the Domo Video Library.
🔗 API Reference Correction
The User API reference was updated to use the correct endpoint path, /api/identity/v1/users, in both the spec and the navigation.
🙏 Thank You
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped make this release possible. Your accuracy fixes, connector updates, and new training content keep the knowledge base trustworthy and genuinely useful.
If you have questions or feedback, please reach out — we're always happy to help!

Community Member of the Month
Our Community Member of the month for August is the very prolific Domo coach, @MarkSnodgrass! Mark is a long-term Domo expert who loves to visit the community regularly so he can help answer questions. Like a few of our other coaches, Mark likes to create videos. His passion for all things Domo also has led him to generate over 30 Domo instructional videos you can search out on his channel in Youtube! (That’s where I stole his pic for today’s recognition). If you’ve posted a question or two the past few months, Mark is likely to be one of the experts who’s jumped in to teach you the answer. It’s coaches like Mark who drive the community’s ever-increasing skills with Domo.
That’s it for this round! What are some of the highlights you’ve enjoyed recently with Domo?
Re: August Community Forum Recap
Thanks @CamBarnes ! It's an honor to be named the community member of the month!
Re: Jupyter Compute Tier management
@Oleksii @OleksiiZakrevskyi i'm pretty sure this is built into domojupyter already you should be able to write a MONIT dataset, then just scrape for the PUT command to edit the tier
