New Dataflow Run Options
Looks like Domo has silently updated trigger options for dataflows (hopefully its not silent and they tell people, I think it just got to my instance about an hour ago so hoping I am just early and more details will come out soon). I love this idea but do feel it is a bit clunky and requires a lot more clicks but I need to…

ETL Field Search Capability
It would be helpful in an ETL to be able to search for a field name and have the tiles that directly reference that field name be highlighted. Many times when supporting dataflow development we are looking for a field and we have to open every tile to see where that field is referenced - in join, in formulas, in filters,…

Need Rank to update in non-standard (?) way
I've got customer records with customer GUIDs, record dates, and member status. If the data for a specific customer looks like this: Date Status 1/1/2023 Active 2/1/2023 Active 3/1/2023 Inactive 4/1/2023 Inactive 5/1/2023 Active 6/1/2023 Active 7/1/2023 Active I want to get a dense ranking that groups the status together,…

Group By issue
I am doing a group by tile in magic etl. i have different values for different ID's and need to sum up all the values in each ID. For some reason some of the ID's are not summing and I get null in column for the ID. I did formula to make sure all null values before grouping are 0 thinking that would fix it but for some…

Allow users to specify the color of Magic ETL tiles
This would be a small change that could help organize extremely busy dataflows. While you can currently change the color of the line

Reloading Recursive Dataflow Data
Hello, I have a recursive data flow running daily adding on and updating our sales data. It was discovered that the join wasn't using a fully unique identifier so some rows of data have been cut out over time. I want to clear out the data and resend it all to domo so that I make sure I have it all. Is there a way to clear…

Preview Window Limits in Magic ETL
There is currently a 100 rows preview window limit when you do the preview run on the ETL. We need to increase this as it can help drastically with further work in the MagicETL.

Maintain Input DataSets when Pasting Copied Magic ETL Tiles
Currently, when copy and pasting Magic ETL tiles between flows, input tiles are scrubbed and become a plain input tile without a DataSet selected. I understand why you'd want to scrub this if pasted in the same flow, but it should be maintained when pasting in a different flow. This should be relatively easy to implement…

Filter Rows Tile | Option to include or exclude NULL
Currently if you use a filter such as <> or != "xyz", this will also filter out any NULL values in the column as well. This is default behaviour for SQL, and I do understand that the reason it's filtering out NULL is because it cannot compare a value to a NULL. So it implicitly excludes NULLs, just as SQL would. The…

Select All Columns in Remove Duplicates ETL Tile
Instead of having to add each column individually, it would be great if there was a select all columns feature for the remove duplicates step in the ETL.

Maintain tile position when copy and pasting Magic ETL tiles
When working with large enough groupings of tiles, or groupings near the bottom of the canvas in Magic and copy/pasting, there is a tendency for tiles being pasted on the canvas to be squished into the bottom. This can be a pain to untangle and reposition the grouping. It would be helpful if by default or through maybe a…

Change Number format in dynamic concat statement
I have create a concat statement to dynamically highlight a certain metric. Essentially it changes as the time period and other categories change. The number is showing in the format in the above picture and I am hoping I could abbreviate in Billion or at least show the number in account format. I would really appreciate…

How do I search for rows containing specific text and replace the information in that row?
I have a column in my ETL dataset that is named "City", in that column there are multiple city names however they have been put in in all different ways (ie: st george, St. George, ST George). I would like to search that column for rows containing 'george' and replace the information in that row with 'St. George'. I've…

Im trying to do a group by to get a new column with total sum of charges by bill ID. I want the total sum to be constant all for every day associated with Bill ID.

Block tiles in Magic ETL to simplify complex dataflows
"Block Tiles" are larger tiles that contain a string of tiles inside. Block tiles could make large Magic ETLs (100+ tiles) easier to document, and much easier to read and understand. These tiles would contain a group of tiles that have a single output tile (not an output dataset) to make for an easy way to connect block…

Assign colors to tiles
I would like to be assign colors to tiles: this would make troubleshooting and code reviews much easier. A stretch goal would be to add setting the color of tiles to the options when you select more than one tile in addition to Delete, Duplicate, and Copy To Clipboard. Using this to visually indicate functional sections of…

Add Formula Rule to Join Tile in ETL
It has been extremely useful in Magic ETL 2.0 to have the Add Formula Rule available in certain tiles such as the Filter tile or Group By tile. I would like to see it be available in the Join tile as well. This would make it operate more like a SQL join. For example, if I need to use a BETWEEN statement for my join key, I…

Magic ETL Organization Tiles
Would be nice to have a feature to add a box around several tiles in order to organise better the dataflow. Sometimes we have a complex dataflow with several business logic and a lot of tiles, and it would be easier to identify the several steps with that boxes. An example of that is like the one in Unreal Engine:

More Dataflow suggestion: When I "cancel" out of a data flow don't dump me back to the Dataflow page
It doesn't always happen, but when it does, UGH. I hit cancel when in an ETL and then I go all the way back to the All Dataflows page. I don't want to go that far back. That's not even where I started. It seems to depend on how I get to the ETL. In this case I can be in the Overview page, click edit etl, once in the etl I…

I need to make a bar chart that combines multiple columns based on date
Simply put, I want to display how many users completed each program in Q4 2023, and I want to later be able to select a different date (so later, for example, I can see how many people completed programs in Q1 2024). I want my users to see the most popular progams during a given time period. I think a bar graph will…

Different time zone

Nested Case and Concat Statement
Hi, I am trying to figure out how to create an Etl that expresses: If a particular year has a result then concat that with another column's result. Something like: CONCAT(case WHEN 2015= 1 then '2015', '-', Virtual vs In-Person else '' end) 2015 has a 1/0 constant and I want the result to be if they attended in person (so…

Is it possible to batch edit source data?
I have a large dataset that needs some cleaning. We have appended to this dataset daily over several years and some of the data values have drifted over time as users have renamed what are essentially labels for different entities. If this were SQL, I could write an update statement and quickly replace the values in label…

Does anybody know how should I use the magic ETL to do that? I used my old way to transform the…
