1. New Features
1.1 Workflows — more triggers, actions, and control flow
You can read more about this in the The Workflows section.
Workflows now support richer automation from end to end:
- New trigger: On data refresh — run a workflow automatically right after a selected data source refreshes (supports multiple sources with OR logic).

-
New actions to build pipelines without leaving the editor
- Enrich data with AI (generate output columns per row)
- Report (select a report from the workspace and use it later in the workflow as an artifact)
- Build a chart (from previous steps or any Sheet)
- Export to data source (export a table result with export mode + access policy)
- Generate output (produce a text result using variables from prior steps)
- User task (assign a task to a user and collect form inputs before the workflow continues)

-
New logic blocks for advanced orchestration
- If / Else with multiple rules (AND logic), comparing values from prior steps (grid, aggregates, properties)
- Routing to split one input table into multiple routes (R1/R2/R3…), each with its own slice and actions
- Interrupt workflow to immediately stop execution (useful as an “emergency stop” inside branches/routes)
-
More ways to run workflows: from the Controls panel (button → Run workflow) and from AI Chat as Agent commands (add workflows to an agent and run them directly from chat)
1.2 Create Multi-sheets — support Pivot tables and Charts across multiple sheets
Now user can create a Multi-sheet (a combined sheet) that consists of several child sheets. A Multi-sheet supports working with multiple primary data sources in one object.

- Multi-sheet supports Pivot Table and Chart as the main modes (Grid Flat is disabled), so user can build visualizations using columns from different child sheets.

- Filters show all Multi-sheet columns (from all child sheets).
- A 2-level hierarchy was added to the column picker: Data sources → Columns, so sources don’t get mixed into one list and the setup is easier to understand.
_multisheets3.png)
- For Multi-sheet, the “Join a new data source” option was removed.
- For Multi-sheet, AI Chat and Automations are disabled; the Model is still available, but read-only.
- Editing actions that don’t make sense for Multi-sheets were removed: Edit linked columns and mapping edit.
1.3 Views — cancel a computation
Long-running computations can now be interrupted directly from the loading state using a Cancel action. A new backend command, InterruptComputation, stops the current computation and returns a CANCELLED status (with metadata and empty records).

1.4 Reports — Read-only (View) mode
Reports now have a clearer View (read-only) mode designed for presenting and consuming content:

- A dedicated View mode toggle is available.
- When a user has read-only access, Reports open in View mode by default.
- The Control panel works in View mode: if at least one control exists, it is shown so viewers can apply filters without editing the report.
- Export to PDF is available in View mode.
2. Improvements & Bugs fixes
2.1 Data sources
- Changed data deletion permissions
2.2 Pivot table & charts
- Improved legend behaviour
2.3 Filters
- Improved Text filters: User can now paste a list of values copied from Excel into a text filter. KAWA converts line breaks into ; and automatically selects all pasted values (even if they are not currently in the list). The same behavior is supported in the Control panel.
- Improved date filter
2.4 Reports
- Improved AI widgets
- Visual polish and UI fixes
- Added button to duplicate dashboards
2.5 Python
- Scripts — built-in script library: Scripts can now be marked as built-in (builtIn: true) and surfaced as a dedicated “built-in” set in the Scripts list (with a filter). Built-in scripts are read-only for users: they can’t be deleted, renamed, edited (description), or shared — only Add to favorites is available.
2.6 Authentication
- Improved API key management
2.7 Other
- Improved Conditional formatting
