Leaderboard Top 3
Who would have guessed that ArborRose remains our top leader in the community! That’s right; he is now on his seventh consecutive month as #1, a feat that maybe only one other community legend, @GrantSmith, could claim to have achieved. Will ArborRose be the first to claim the top of the leaderboard for a full 12 months? Or will someone challenge him and his dynasty? Only time will tell...
In all seriousness, we can’t thank our leaderboard enough! Thank you to Mark Snodgrass for being an absolute unit and consistently showing up to support the community. We have a first-timer on the leaderboard as well — way to go, Elliott Leonard!
- @ArborRose: 228 points

Community Member of the Month
November’s Community Member of the Month has one of those special success stories that you rarely get to see. Elliott Leonard has a long history with Domo. He formerly worked for Domo in 2022 and has remained active in the Community since. He stayed close to home, working for companies like GUIDEcx, a prominent Domo partner, and Henry Schein One, just down the road from Domo HQ. During Domopalooza 2023 he won the Community Member of the Year award. This month he made it onto the Leaderboard for the first time, participating in 10 discussions and answering 6 different questions. He’s less than a hundred points away from earning the prestigious title of Community Coach. Elliott is so loyal to Domo and its community that he has decided to return to Domo and reclaim his status as a Domosapien! He just started his new role as a Sr. Solutions Engineer this week, and we’re so glad to have him back.
If Elliott Leonard has helped you find an answer to your question, help me thank and congratulate @ellibot in the comments below!
Drill to final dataset report
Hi all
To me it seems strange the drill to final dataset is allowed by default. We need the to be off by default to protect our master datasets. My suggestion is to have a company configuration option to set this as on or off and for a report to be available in the governance datasets.
Domo Support confirmed thats thers no report to flag this so we have created a workflow to run against 20k cards and run off drill down. Massively overkill as a report would flag the ones we need to lock down and run a workflow multiple times a day to add to our data security.
Sharing custom themes in App Studio
Hey all! I want to share a custom theme I've built with our company's branding for all to use in App Studio, but I don't see the option to do that. Am I missing something or is this feature not available?

Campaigns App - Campaign Version Control
For individual campaigns in Campaigns App, to have version controls similar to that of Dataflows. So that you can revert your Campaigns to previous versions should you need to.
Utilize column definitions in DomoStat dataset schema
As a lot of the data being returned are the programmatic values and are sometimes are unclear what they represent it’s be nice if they were defined right in the schema. Having column definitions on the DomoStats dataset schemas will also help illustrate best practices and show that Domo fully utilizes data governance on these governance datasets.
Change default background color for expanded card
This applies to App dashboards:
When the page has a picture fill and the card in the page has a transparent (0% opacity) fill, then the card default color when exanded is steel grey. This steel grey color interferes with other card elements, and I'd like this color to be changed to plain white when the card is expanded.
App page with transparent card on a page with background image:
Card in expanded mode:
Desired fix is to change that steel grey color to white color when the page has image fill and the card is transparent.

Analyser Default Templates
Could we have the option to create one or more default starting templates for Analyzer where we can pre-define options, chart type etc. for each new card creation which would be far more efficient.

Run Dataset Input From Inside Magic ETL
There is often a situation where I am developing or troubleshooting a dataflow where I need to have the most updated version of a data input in order to continue my work in Magic ETL. The current process is to click on the dataset in Magic, go to the Details tab, click the link to open the dataset, click the options button, then Run Now. Then I have to navigate back to the flow, save my changes, refresh my browser, then edit the flow again.
Ideally, I would like to click on a data input tile, click on a Run Now button in the configuration tab, a "refresh" animation/notification would pop up, indicating that it was running and finished. Then continue my work without having to navigate away.

Disassociate 'Card Name' with 'Dashboard Card Name'
I would like the ability to change the title of a card on a dashboard without it renaming the card everywhere in Domo.
Often when the card is on the dashboard it has additional context surrounding it to give it meaning and this allow the card title to use a more concise title such as 'Revenue'. The problem is that doing this currently changes the card name everywhere in Domo. Viewing the card anywhere outside of that dash it is no longer clear exactly what that card may represent.
