This QuickStart lists all the new and public beta features released, as well as bugs fixed in July 2026.

It is summary in nature, and you should refer to the specific Sigma documentation links provided for more information.

Public beta features will carry the section text "Beta".

All other features are considered released (GA or generally available).

Sigma actually has feature and bug fix releases weekly, and high-priority bug fixes on demand. We felt it was best to keep these QuickStarts to a summary of the previous month for your convenience.

New first Friday features QuickStarts will be published on the first Friday of each month, and will include information for the previous month.

For more information, see Create and manage tenant organizations

Sigma Tenants (GA)

Sigma Tenants is now generally available, allowing organizations to set up a multitenant architecture with multiple Sigma organizations under a single account. Designed for enterprises and ISVs managing separate business units, regions, or customer deployments, Sigma Tenants is a premium feature.

WHY IT MATTERS:
Multitenancy has historically required separate Sigma instances or complex shared-infrastructure workarounds. Sigma Tenants gives enterprises and ISVs a governed, first-class path to isolate organizations, manage content deployment centrally, and audit activity per tenant — without the overhead of maintaining multiple accounts.

For more information, see Multitenancy at Sigma

Tenant Audit Log Storage Integrations (Beta)

Administrators can now export tenant audit logs to cloud storage, enabling centralized log management across tenant organizations.

For more information, see Configure tenant audit log storage integrations

AI spend templates (GA)

Three new workbook templates — Claude, OpenAI, and Snowflake — visualize the costs associated with AI tool usage across your organization. Use them as a starting point for internal AI cost tracking and governance reporting:

WHY IT MATTERS:
AI spend is increasingly showing up in IT and finance conversations — and right now most teams have no easy way to see where it's going. These templates give you a working cost dashboard on day one, built on live data, without starting from scratch.

AI usage dashboard (GA)

A new dashboard tracks token consumption, conversations, engagement, and model usage across your organization. Includes an AI analyst agent for querying usage data in natural language:

WHY IT MATTERS:
As AI usage scales across teams, cost visibility becomes a governance requirement. The AI usage dashboard gives administrators a live view of consumption by model, user, and feature — the audit trail enterprises need before expanding AI access broadly.

For more information, see AI usage dashboard

Amazon Bedrock AI provider support (GA)

Amazon Bedrock is now a supported AI provider, allowing Sigma's AI-powered features to run on Anthropic foundation models through your existing Bedrock configuration.

WHY IT MATTERS:
Enterprises with AWS infrastructure can now route Sigma's AI requests through their own Bedrock account — keeping AI workloads inside their AWS boundary and satisfying data residency or compliance requirements.

For more information, see Add Amazon Bedrock as an AI provider

For more information, see Use the Sigma MCP server

Natural language questions about usage data (GA)

The Users and Document Activity dashboards now support AI agent queries, letting administrators ask questions about usage patterns in plain language. Requires a configured AI provider:

Sigma Plugin for ChatGPT (GA)

A one-click installation connects Sigma's MCP server to ChatGPT, letting users query Sigma workbooks, data models, and live data directly from their ChatGPT workflow.

WHY IT MATTERS:
Analysts who live in ChatGPT can now access live Sigma data without switching context — with access governed by Sigma's existing permissions and audit logging intact.

For more information, see Set up the Sigma MCP server in ChatGPT

API connector from cURL (GA)

Import an API connector configuration directly from a cURL command, reducing manual setup when converting existing API calls into Sigma connectors.

For more information, see Create an API connector based on a cURL request

A new action type allows agents and actions to insert one or more rows into an input table. Rows can contain new defined values or data pulled from existing workbook sources.

For more information, see Create actions that modify input table data

Parse API responses to tables (Beta)

API connector call actions can now insert multiple rows by parsing array structures from API responses, turning list and paginated responses into table data.

Sigma Assistant plan and build modes (Beta)

Sigma Assistant now supports plan and build modes in the workbook, enabling natural language construction of dashboards, charts, tables, KPIs, forms, and AI-powered apps.

WHY IT MATTERS:
Plan and build modes shift Sigma Assistant from answering questions to constructing workbooks. Describe what you want to build, review the plan before a single element is created, and end up with a governed, publishable workbook — live on real data, with version history and permissions intact from the start.

For more information, see Build Dashboards and Apps with Sigma Assistant

App templates (Beta)

A growing library of pre-built app templates is now available, covering common business scenarios including Project Management, Revenue Forecasting, Demand Planning, and seven additional use cases. Use templates as a starting point and customize them to your data and workflows:

1: Restored documentation MCP server functionality.

2: Fixed inactive version tag timestamps to show correct dates.

3: Preserved element layout positions when copying/pasting multiple elements.

4: Resolved Snowflake Cortex Agent warehouse selection issues.

5: Improved tooltip theme setting compliance.

6: Preserved code representation id values in data model creation endpoint.

7: Linked input table creation now validates write-back schema compatibility before proceeding.

For more information, see Sigma integration with Databricks Unity Catalog and Unity Catalog metric views

BusinessDays function (GA)

The new BusinessDays function calculates the number of weekdays between two dates, including both the start and end dates and excluding weekends.

WHY IT MATTERS:
Date calculations in business contexts — SLA tracking, payment terms, project timelines — routinely need to exclude weekends. A dedicated function makes these calculations accurate and readable without workarounds.

For more information, see BusinessDays

Automate Sigma from the Command Line with the Sigma CLI

This QuickStart shows how to install and use the Sigma CLI (sigcli), a typed command-line wrapper over Sigma's REST API, to turn repetitive administrative work into repeatable, auditable automation.

It walks through how to:

• Install and configure sigcli with a named authentication profile
• Map CLI commands to the underlying REST API and discover resources with built-in help
• Read JSON output and reshape it with jq
• Export a governance snapshot of members, connections, and workbooks to CSV
• Wrap the inventory in a script you can run on a schedule

WHY IT MATTERS:
Anything you can do in the Sigma REST API, you can now do from a script — turning one-off administrative clicks into repeatable automation for inventory, provisioning, and deployment. Because every command runs through the same API, permissions, and audit logging as the rest of Sigma, that automation stays governed.

Build Dashboards and Apps with Sigma Assistant

This QuickStart shows how to use Sigma Assistant's Plan and Build modes to design and construct dashboards and AI apps from scratch, then refine them conversationally — all live on your data.

It walks through how to:

• Use Assistant's Plan and Build modes, and switch between them
• Start from a governed data model and let semantic search find the right source
• Plan a build from a design image, and have Assistant question the plan before building
• Build a revenue forecast with actuals, a projection, KPIs, and COGS/margin views
• Refine the result conversationally, adding controls and adjusting the forecast

WHY IT MATTERS:
This moves Assistant from analysis to construction — describe what you want in plain language and get a governed, publishable workbook rather than a throwaway mockup. Builders design and iterate faster while the result stays live on real data, with Sigma's permissions and version history intact.

Sigma Starter Apps

Sigma Starter Apps are fully built, production-ready applications covering common business workflows across finance, sales, operations, and support. Each app is built entirely on Sigma's native capabilities — input tables, AI agents, actions, and live warehouse data — and comes with a QuickStart that walks through the design patterns so you can adapt it to your own data.

• Budget Variance

Ad hoc calculated columns in pivot tables (GA)

Pivot tables now support one-off calculated columns for analysis without modifying the underlying dataset.

Array unnesting for tables (GA)

The new Unnest feature creates table rows from array data, expanding nested arrays into a flat, analyzable table structure.

For more information, see Create a table from an array

Button element icons (GA)

Button and navigation elements now support icons alongside labels, or as a standalone replacement for text, giving interactive controls and navigation a more visual and compact appearance:

For more information, see Button elements

Cancel materializations in progress (GA)

Users can now request cancellation of in-progress element materializations, giving more control over long-running operations without waiting for them to complete.

Configure data loading (GA)

A new data loading configuration option lets builders manage prefetch queries for specific elements, optimizing performance for pages with multiple or complex data sources.

Convert workbooks to reports (GA)

Existing workbooks can now be converted to reports, enabling pixel-level formatting control and more reliable export behavior:

WHY IT MATTERS:
Builders who already have a workbook no longer need to rebuild it as a separate report asset to get pixel-perfect formatting and reliable exports. Convert in place and keep everything you've already built.

For more information, see Convert workbooks to reports

Enhanced export formatting (GA)

Excel and Google Sheets exports now preserve cell background color, text color, row banding, and font properties from the source workbook.

WHY IT MATTERS:
Export fidelity has long been a gap between what analysts see in Sigma and what stakeholders receive. Preserving formatting in Excel and Sheets exports means reports land polished and ready to share — without manual cleanup.

Find in table (GA)

Find in table is now generally available, letting users search for specific values within tables and input tables directly in the workbook.

WHY IT MATTERS:
For analysts working with large datasets, locating a specific row or value without sorting or filtering reduces friction — especially in input tables where pinpointing a record before editing is a common step.

Locale-based number and date formatting (GA)

Append :lng= to a workbook URL to apply locale-specific number and date formatting without changing account-level localization settings.

Mailto link support in text elements (GA)

Text elements now support mailto: links, allowing builders to add clickable email links directly in workbook text.

For more information, see Text elements

Manage translations panel (GA)

The Manage locales panel has been renamed to Manage translations. Functionality is unchanged:

New homepage sections (Beta)

The Sigma homepage now includes Popular activity and Your Work sections, surfacing frequently accessed and recently visited content for faster navigation.

Responsive segmented controls (GA)

Segmented controls with long display values now automatically convert to dropdown menus, preventing text truncation in compact layouts.
