Use maximum values in new metric

Hello Community!  I created a metric where I can see the revenue of a product split by different countries per month. I can then use the aggregator “MAX” to give me the maximum obtained revenue - e.g. in which country the revenue was the highest that month. I would like to use this value (thus the name of this country) in a separate table where I have already other information on this product. What I would like to add in this table is thus “Product X - Top performing country”. Would this be possible? Thank you very much in advance!

Viewing login activity by User

Hi, Is there any way as an admin to track when an user last logged into Pigment / track this over time? Would be great to have in order to track the actual adoption of Pigment across the business, given that a lot of user will only be consuming information (not making any changes to the assumptions, which would have appeared in the History logs).

Can we use variables in formula?

Generally, we create metric for current month or year and use it for further calculation.If we can use variable in formula than we will not have to create metric for the same.So I would like to know that we can use variable in formula, if yes then how?

Changes to Autosave in Sheet View and Blocks

Hello friends, On Friday April 14th, we will be making some changes to the Autosave functionality and the default Autosave behavior when inputting data in Sheet View. What is the “Autosave off” feature that will be released on April 14th? Now Members with Configure Blocks permission will have a block-level setting controlling Autosave.  This setting is now available on all block types and determines if inputs within the block are automatically saved or not. While already existing, the Autosave functionality was changed to expand its functionality to Boards for all types of display modes and not only Sheet view, making it more accessible to Members inputting data on Boards. This change also enables the autosave setting to be consistent across users and views. How does this impact Sheet view? On April 14th, Sheet view’s default behavior will change from Autosave being off to Autosave being turned on. This means Members will no longer have to save inputs before they sync with the rest of
