Dear team, I would like to bring up two feature requests, that hopefully your product teams can take up and consider for future iterations: 1. Proper computed attributes: Currently all we can do is “bucketing” an attribute by another metric. What I’d like to do is to use logic expressions combining different metrics or attributes to come up with new attribute values. I think in the past 2 years with GD Platform (transitioning to GD Cloud as we speak), we had probably 20 cases where computed attributes would have simplified our lives, but in the end we had to build it in snowflake and load it to GD. 2. Hidden metrics/attributes in an insight. Use Case: I build a table and I have Metrics M1, M2 and M3=M1/M2. On my table insight I only want to show M1 and M3, but I need M2 to compute M3. We had this case as well quite often. I know there is the workaround of just defining M2 in MAQL, but that leads to a lot of throw-away metrics, and it doesn’t work for hiding attributes (see 1.)
none of this is urgent, but all of it would be wonderful quality-of-life improvements
For the first case our most recent use case was renaming attribute values under specific conditions.
