    Add the capability to disable the default cache to postgreSQL

    Having this configuration available an admin will be able to permanently "disable" any caching to the local postgresSQL database which could be out of compliance for data sensitive systems.

    Random Sample data as Transformation option

    Don't think this is currently possible. Currently, to do a random sample, I create a calculated column for random value like Rand(1). Then I filter the data to my sample size (e.g. I filter out 0.0 to 0.7 if I want a random sample that's 30% of th...

    need storage persist option for replacing data tables

    I am really missing the option to set scheduled updates / reloads for analysis files (and/or individual data tables) in Spotfire Cloud. If we had this feature, it would be a no-brainer to buy multiple licenses of Spotfire Cloud. I would just lik...

    Visualize months with single letter code

    When visualizing trends using binned dates it would definitely help to have the possibility to visualize a single letter code for months instead of the three letter codes. When all months are displayed it could help in optimizing the visualization.

    Enable indents for HTML script in the textarea

    Folder structure to organize different map layers

    File Routing and/or Deny Open for Scheduled Updates Change

    We like having scheduled-updates.performance.deny-open-when-not-scheduled set to true in config.bat so that users don't try to open large cached analyses outside of their scheduled window. However, we also want to be able to route a specific file ...
