May 2024 Domo Release
If you logged into Domo today, you should have seen a preview of the new features and enhancements and betas coming to Domo next week. As I started doing earlier in the year, posting a PDF here since those messages disappear
once you read them. Enjoy.
Make Exporting, User Comments, and Real Time Collaboration Possible within App Studio
There are two main concerns my team has which is preventing us from utilizing App Studo more: 1) the inability to export cards or outputs to Excel/PPT and 2) the inability for users to communicate or point out key findings with each other in the platform.
A majority of dashboards we create typically require and/or influence communication between stakeholders on what actions we should take to address Y or prompt a stakeholder to find out what's driving X reulsts and why. However, as of today I'm not aware of a way for one stakeholder to communicate such points with another in the platform and to an extent and easy way to do it outside of the platform.
Giving users the ability to either add commentary to cards/in tables or highlight specific sections could help address this. It seems users only have the ability to filter and that severely limits the what they can do when collaborating with others if they aren't sitting side-by-side. Another potential solution could be to add the ability for one user to quickly share what they're seeing, without having to share the specific filters or drill downs they've done. This could be achieved via exporting, but also allowing users to quickly send a link or email from the platform on what exactly they're looking at.
Hover Text Settings for Radial Gauge
It would be helpful to be able to turn off the hover text on a radial gauge. I would like to be able to show the range without the customer seeing the actual value.
Ability to Disable Alerts
It would be awesome if you could enable/disable alerts on a card or dataset, that way if you have hundreds of people attached to an alert and it needs to be paused for a time, you don't have to delete it, create a new one, and then reshare it to all users individually.
Ability to turn off click-through from emailed reports
Can we add a configuration to turn off the ability to click through links in scheduled reports? We have created some email-only reports that don't look good on the dashboard and we would like to disable the click-through.
Thanks!
Improved messaging when deleting a page
I deleted a parent page, which deleted multiple child pages. I didn't remember or know there were sub-dashboards associated to it. So, when developing this, please add the same "Are you sure" logic you have when you have to delete a dataset and show you everything associated to the page.
Folders for Workbench
We already have many Workbench jobs, making it difficult to find the specific job I need. If we could organize these jobs into folders, it would be much cleaner and improve both management and work efficiency. Could you please create a folder system for storing jobs in Workbench?
This feature was also requested by some of Domo buddies members in Japan.
Line Numbers to heatmaps and Tables
I'm a user who works with various table cards like heatmaps and others in a table format, and I would like the ability to add line numbers to my cards.

Drillpass symble
It's currently difficult to tell the difference between a card with a drill path and one without. At our company, we've tried prefixing the titles of drill cards with "/d:", but this method isn't immediately clear. It would be helpful if we could add a specific mark or icon to cards that have a drill path set, making them easily identifiable at a glance.

Be able to change the default color of positive and negative values in charts
Hi Community,
We'd like to request the capability of changing/defining the default positive and negative color in "Change value options" in charts like "Multi-value". Currently, the default color for positive value is green and it's red for negative value. However, we'd like to avoid using red and green for potential user groups that are color blind. We'd like to change the default ones to more user-friendly colors. We understand that we can select the drop down for "positive color" and "negative color" and pick other options to adjust the color of that value as well as entering a hex value in the the text box at the bottom of that option screen for more specific colors. However, this involves changing every time and for each card, not to mention if we want a specific color, we will need to pass on that hex value to all creators. Therefore, we believe the option to change the default color would make our cards/dashboards more user-friendly and reaching broader groups but not adding too much work to individuals (and keep our choice of color consistent across different teams).
