## Feature Enhancements
| Title | Description |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Logi Symphony in Cloud Marketplaces | |
| Symphony SaaS for Small Business | SaaS for Small Business is a new way to leverage data analytics in your organization with Logi Symphony. We'll deploy and manage your instance in the cloud, providing you and your users with secure access to the information they need to make data-driven decisions. |
| [Source Creation Enhancements](/logi-symphony/symphony/v24/release-notes/symphony-24-2-enhancements#Source) | We've enhanced the user experience for source creation by introducing visualization of data relationships for schemas.
- Navigate to the **Relationship** tab for a specific connection, then select a schema from the available schemas to view or edit the relationships for each.
- Select a schema and view the relationships in read only mode for your data sources in the Entity Details work area for that data source.
- When you’re working with joins, view available joins and create new joins as needed. Recommended joins and joins you add are visible in the join relationship visualization; from there you can draw new joins according to your specific needs.
- Visualization is available for multiple connection types. For Postgres connections, Symphony provides tables and default database relationship data from the connection.
For more information, see Visualize Schemas and Joins, Source Creation Tab, and Visualize Joins. |
| [SAP S/4HANA Support](/logi-symphony/symphony/v24/release-notes/symphony-24-2-enhancements#SAP) | Symphony now includes an SAP S/4HANA connector. See Manage the SAP S/4HANA Connector. |
| [Upgrade to Symphony](/logi-symphony/symphony/v24/release-notes/symphony-24-2-enhancements#Upgrade) | You can now upgrade your Composer to Symphony. On upgrade, your users, groups, and tenants are imported into Symphony. Users need to update their passwords the first time they log in: see [Migrate from Composer to Symphony](/logi-symphony/symphony/v24/licensing/migrate-from-composer-to-symphony) for preparation and migration details. |
| [Symphony 24.2 Enhancements](/logi-symphony/symphony/v24/release-notes/symphony-24-2-enhancements#Pendo) | |
| [UI and UX Improvements](/logi-symphony/symphony/v24/release-notes/symphony-24-2-enhancements#UI) | Many menus, icons, and names have been updated throughout Symphony and the modules available to you in your environment to be more in sync with their associated tasks. - For example, some context menus have been reorganized, making it easier to find the tasks you wish to perform.
- Drill down into presented data by selecting **Drill-down** in available menus, replacing the use of **Zoom** in context menus, panels, and other work areas. Other uses of **Zoom** in your software unrelated to examining data in greater detail remain unchanged.
- Changing the look of a visual or visualization is now done by selecting **Re-visualize** from the appropriate menu or other work area. This replaces the use of the term **Visual Style** in the user interface.
|
| [Tenant Management Improvements](/logi-symphony/symphony/v24/release-notes/symphony-24-2-enhancements#Tenant) | You can now customize your Symphony environment more easily on a per-tenant basis. After upgrading to this version: You can define custom attributes and default views for users on a per-tenant basis. Assign users to tenants more easily, populating tenant membership across all modules in use in your environment. Tenant IDs are now included in the screenshot service logs. Tenant membership is synchronized across all installed Symphony modules. For more information, see Using Custom Attributes to Filter Data by User. |
| [Managed Dashboard Data Connections](/logi-symphony/symphony/v24/release-notes/symphony-24-2-enhancements#Managed) | Previously a beta feature, this feature is now available in all Symphony environments where you use Managed Dashboards along with Visual Data Discovery.
You can now create data sources in Visual Data Discovery data cubes or data connectors. Establish a connection to an available project in Visual Data Discovery then use to create a data source. After you've created the source, use it to create a visual in the Visual Gallery or in a dashboard.
See Add Data Store ConnectionsAdd Data Discovery Data Store Connections and Define a SourceDefine a Visual Data Discovery Source.
**Note:** This feature is no longer in beta and can be used in production environments. |
| [Table of Contents Navigation](/logi-symphony/symphony/v24/release-notes/symphony-24-2-enhancements#Table) | When you add a table of contents to your reports, you can select each entry to navigate to the content in view mode. Symphony generates navigation links and a document outline when exported as a PDF. See Add a Table of Contents. |
| [Export Numeric Fields and Dates](/logi-symphony/symphony/v24/release-notes/symphony-24-2-enhancements#Export) | Exporting raw or visual data from visuals created in Visual Data Discovery to XLSX format now outputs numeric and date fields in number and date format. |
| [RSA Key Signing Support](/logi-symphony/symphony/v24/release-notes/symphony-24-2-enhancements#RSA) | Symphony now supports the RSA asymmetric key signing algorithm when using JSON web token (JWT) authentication. |
| [Select Individual Modules](/logi-symphony/symphony/v24/release-notes/symphony-24-2-enhancements#Run) | Select the Symphony modules you prefer to install during installation: all modules, or exclude Logi AI, Managed Dashboards, or Visual Data Discovery as desired. See [Install Symphony - Kubernetes](/logi-symphony/symphony/v24/licensing/install-symphony-kubernetes). |
| [Breaking Changes Management](/logi-symphony/symphony/v24/release-notes/symphony-24-2-enhancements#Breakin) | We've expanded change management for breaking changes by adding your warning tags to sources or other objects, even if there are no other top level dependencies to that object. See Import or Export Sources. |
| [Import Matching Strategy Improvements](/logi-symphony/symphony/v24/release-notes/symphony-24-2-enhancements#Import) | When you migrate and import objects into your environment, you can define a matching strategy that uses multiple approaches to reviewing objects to determine how to handle them in conjunction with your selected insertion strategy. Matching strategies are processed in order, proceeding to the next and the next if a strategy fails. If all strategies fail, the object is imported and tagged with your selected tags to help you find affected objects and manage any issues. These attributes are used to define the matching strategy and warning tags to use for import. See [Import Dashboards](/logi-symphony/symphony/v24/dashboards/import-dashboards), Import Visual Gallery Visuals, and Import or Export Sources. |
| [Improved Line Chart Performance](/logi-symphony/symphony/v24/release-notes/symphony-24-2-enhancements#Improve) | The data display of line charts in Symphony now supports rendering of large data sets more quickly by halting the calculation of values and percentages for data lengths over 130,000. When this threshold is reached, the **Display as stacked** option is disabled. Work with Support if you need to change the setting of `data-threshold` from the default of 130,000. |
| [Change Schemas in Manual Select Transforms](/logi-symphony/symphony/v24/release-notes/symphony-24-2-enhancements#Change) | You can now can select a schema as needed when you create or edit manual select transforms that use supported data connectors. Create a parameter for the session schema selection and make it public so viewers can change the schema on the dashboard. Use custom attributes to filter and bind the selection options to a user or group.
Enable **Allow Session Schemas** for the appropriate connectors to make this option available in your environment.
Supported connectors include Oracle, Postgres, Redshift, MemSQL, MySQL, and Exasol. See Session Schema. |
| [Map and Tree Visualization Updates](/logi-symphony/symphony/v24/release-notes/symphony-24-2-enhancements#Map) | Customize the selection behavior and set up custom interactions when selection changes in maps, diagrams, and treemaps. Map visualizations now have built-in support for Azure Maps for street level maps. See Using a Treemap and Using a Map Visualization. |
| [Upgraded Python Requirements](/logi-symphony/symphony/v24/release-notes/symphony-24-2-enhancements#Upgrade2) | The minimum supported version of Python for Managed Dashboards and Reports is Python 3.8. |
