Product updates
What's new in Zenlytic — product updates, new features, and notable changes.
Claude Opus 5 and bulk user management
Claude Opus 5 in the model picker, bulk workspace user management, and fixes across chat, deliveries, and Proactive Agents.
New features
Claude Opus 5 — Opus 5 is available in the chat model picker; Opus 4.8 remains available.
Bulk user management — Admins can select multiple workspace users and change their roles or remove them in one action.
Improvements
Verified-field styling — Modeled fields use a verified style across queries and dashboards, making them easier to distinguish from dynamic fields.
Artifact links open the exact version — Links to an artifact version open the right conversation, select the matching version, and scroll it into view.
Background indexing control — Admins can turn off scheduled background search-index queries for a workspace.
Microphone beside Send — The voice transcription button now sits next to the send button in chat.
Bug fixes
Markdown tables render in delivery emails — Scheduled-delivery emails convert Markdown tables, links, bold, and italic text into styled HTML.
Chat failures end cleanly — Provider errors, oversized inputs, interrupted streams, and failed agent or MCP connection setup now show a clear error instead of leaving the chat hanging.
Files preserved during agent runs — Generated and uploaded files no longer disappear during Proactive Agent runs.
Proactive Agent feedback and filtering — Thumbs-down feedback and status filtering work correctly in the Proactive Agents list.
Consistent workspace connection creation — Connections created from Workspace Manager apply the same credential defaults and validation as Workspace Settings.
Memory setting fully respected — When a workspace turns memory off, the memory button, memory creation, and memory retrieval are all disabled.
Git provider errors shown on model save — When a Git provider rejects a data model save, Context Manager shows the provider's error instead of a generic failure. (Context Manager)
Model-editing toggle hidden without permission — Proactive Agent configuration no longer shows the data-model editing tool toggle to users without model-edit permission. This was a display-only fix — the underlying capability was already permission-gated.
Clearer SQL-permission errors — Zoë's permission-emulation error names the exact setting involved and explains the effect of disabling it.
Web search hidden when disabled — Proactive Agent configuration no longer offers web search when the workspace has disabled it.
Proactive Agents for all workspaces
Proactive Agents are now available to all workspaces, plus refreshed signup screens, HTML uploads, and chat and query fixes.
New features
Proactive Agents for all workspaces — Schedule agents that pull context from your MCP connections and data sources, decide whether a result is worth sending, and alert you by email or Slack only when something matters — not on every run.
Create a Proactive Agent from chat — Save a chat as a Proactive Agent using the conversation title, prompts, and attachments.
Share Proactive Agents — Share agents with users or groups and assign viewer, editor, or owner access.
Cancel running agent runs — Cancel an active Proactive Agent run directly from run history.
MCP connections enabled by default for new chats — Admins can configure an MCP connection to start enabled in each new conversation for users who have access.
HTML file uploads — Upload .html files as context in chat and Proactive Agents.
Improvements
Refreshed signed-out and signup screens — Signup, workspace invitation, and unauthenticated pages use a cleaner, consistent account flow, and campaign or partner signup links can show tailored copy.
More tables in chat answers — Zoë now uses compact Markdown tables more often when they communicate query results more clearly.
Bug fixes
Welcome-message edits save reliably — Editing a workspace's chat welcome message enables Save immediately.
Wide SQL queries no longer time out — Very wide queries, including large SELECT * results, skip a detection step that could previously delay or fail responses.
Refreshed signup flow and smarter documentation search
A refreshed signup flow, smarter Zoë documentation searches, and fixes across artifact sharing, Slack deliveries, and warehouse queries.
Improvements
Updated signup flow — New-user signup has a revised email/password flow, clearer terms links, and moves profile personalization to after signup.
Fewer repeated Zoë documentation searches — Zoë stops searching product docs once it has an answer, instead of repeating searches.
Bug fixes
Fixed Microsoft Teams sign-in — Teams users now get the Entra login flow and no longer see a blank screen after signing out.
Fixed case-sensitive warehouse queries — Queries no longer lowercase quoted mixed-case identifiers on Fabric and Synapse, which caused failures on case-sensitive warehouses.
Accurate upload-type validation — The upload picker now matches supported file types, adds .webp and .ppt uploads, removes unsupported RTF, XML, and GIF options, and shows readable errors.
Web search preserved across run steps — Follow-up steps in a run keep the web-search setting instead of dropping it.
Artifact sharing dialogs stay open — Sharing and access-management popovers no longer close prematurely, and focus and scrolling behave correctly.
Slack respects workspace web-search policy — Slack conversations now honor whether web search is enabled for the workspace. (Slack)
Longer BigQuery Data Project IDs — The Data Project ID(s) field accepts the full 256 characters.
No duplicate artifact refreshes — Repeated scheduling actions no longer create duplicate refresh entries.
Cleaner new-chat drawers — Explore and context drawers initialize and clear correctly for deep-linked questions, without leaking prior-chat state.
Zoë looks up product docs before answering
Workspace switching from Add Data, Zoë checking product docs before answering how-to questions, a refreshed login and signup experience, and fixes across MCP connection errors, data model reviews, daily refresh scheduling, SQL generation, and large-workspace exports.
New features
Zoë looks up product docs — Zoë checks Zenlytic's product documentation before answering how-to questions, so answers reflect what's actually documented. (Slack, docs)
Improvements
Switch workspaces from Add Data — Users with access to multiple workspaces can now switch workspaces directly from the Add Data flow.
Refreshed login and signup pages — Login and signup pages now show an updated brand panel with customer logos and security badges.
Admin chat filter for Proactive Agent runs — Admin chat lists can now include or exclude Proactive Agent run conversations when filtering.
Bug fixes
Clearer MCP connection errors in chat — When an MCP connection is stale or misconfigured, chat now shows a clear error telling you to refresh the connection instead of hanging or retrying silently.
Data model reviews skip deprecated Topics — Data model review guidance no longer recommends legacy Topics unless the project actually contains topic files. (Data Model Editor)
Daily refresh no longer blocks chat — Background daily refresh jobs are now capped so they don't crowd out chat tasks, reducing queued or expired requests.
Fixed duplicate-column SQL errors — Access-filter SQL generation no longer produces ambiguous-column errors from duplicate quoted or cased references to the same column. (Data Model Editor)
Fixed a Claude runtime error — Resolved a runtime error that could affect some Claude-powered chat and agent runs.
More reliable large-workspace exports — Screenshot, PDF, and CSV rendering for large dashboards and questions is more reliable and less likely to crash.

Improvements
More visible table selection — Row-selection checkboxes now have stronger contrast and stay visible on mobile gallery cards.
Clearer skill and code error messages — Zoë now tells you when a failure comes from a workspace-authored skill or uploaded code, including the skill or file and the actual error. (Data Model Editor)
Git-backed skill metadata — Git-backed workspace skills now show their name, description, required status, and file location in Zoë's skills list. (Data Model Editor)
Claude Sonnet 5 in the model picker
Claude Sonnet 5 in the model picker, plus clearer MCP connection error messages.
New features
Claude Sonnet 5 — Sonnet 5 is now the default active model in the chat model picker; existing chats are unaffected.
Improvements
Clearer MCP setup errors — MCP server connection and setup failures now show specific, useful error messages instead of a generic failure.
Expanded file uploads and smarter warehouse location handling
Expanded file upload support, smarter warehouse location handling, and SSO and MCP fixes.
Improvements
Expanded file uploads — Upload macro-enabled Excel files (.xlsm) and structured text and code files (.py, .json, .md) across chat, agents, workflows, document preview, and file analysis.
Warehouse location handling — Zoë treats "schema," "database," "catalog," and "dataset" more flexibly and retries alternate warehouse hierarchy levels before reporting data as unavailable.
Bug fixes
Vanity-host SSO redirects — Vanity-domain auth redirects work correctly for EU and other non-app.zenlytic.com environments.
MCP tool discovery — MCP server tool discovery completes the initialization handshake and parses SSE responses correctly, fixing cases where connected MCP servers showed no tools.
Shared-chat and MCP connection fixes
Shared-chat copy and MCP connection fixes.
Improvements
Shared chat copy navigation — Copying a shared chat now opens the copied conversation through in-app navigation.
Bug fixes
MCP protocol version header — MCP connections send the negotiated MCP-Protocol-Version header after initialization, fixing tool calls against servers that require it. (API)

New features
Source-data citations for dashboards — On request, dashboard visuals can show source-data badges, an underlying-rows view, and CSV downloads.
Improvements
