Hi,Is there a way to query Snapshot Metadata via API? As I understand every snapshot of an application is a separate application, but when I retrieve Metadata using this post by ​@DamianAtPigment I only get live applications. In API docs I don’t see that I can configure Snapshot or Live, but maybe I’m missing something.Why you might ask? I would like to automatically extract data from the same metric via API, but from different snapshots to show and monitor historic changes. I know that I will have to use text comparison to extract the metric by name, but that’s ok.Thanks!

Hello All, I’m currently trying to build a budget for the next year and running into issues on how to lock data down.Example: Set up a budget for FY26Current Date: 12/19/25Current Month = Dec 2025Latest Actual Month (Switchover Month) = Nov 2025OpEx Planning: I will set the switchover month as Nov 2025, so the data is locked down already.Headcount Planning: Our headcount roster is being loaded on a daily basis and overwritten until the last day of each month so our most up to date data is 12/19/25.Let’s say I want to say today is the day I want my budget to be set and won’t change after 12/19/25. I can create a scenario based on my current scenario which locks down the data for OpEx but my headcount data will essentially be still moving because by tomorrow, it would be using a new transaction list on 12/20/25.I’ve thought of few proposals to resolve this issue but each has its own flaws so I would l

Hi everybody,To my great surprise I saw that the powerpoint connector is now available. Christmas came early this year. I immediately tried it and already noticed a few things. But I was curious about the experiences of other users. For example - with grids, I noticed that the export of the grid sometimes moves beyond the border of the visual in powerpoint. And since it's a static picture there is no way to retrieve the rows or columns that fall under of after the border of the powerpoint visual. Another thing that I noticed deals with the width of the columns. For example, I have a certain grid that has columns in a certain width so that all the text fits. The export to powerpoint however squeezes the width of the column so you can't read all the text.Has anybody experienced the same or knows a workaround solution to these types of issues?Thanks, Bas 

Hi everyone,I duplicated Applications in order to test some new Pigment functionnalities without impacting Live Applications.There are 3 apps which are linked together (Shared metrics) Tests are over ; I’d like to delete those Apps, but Pigment show this message :“Cannot delete application: some of the shared objects are still referenced by other applications.”We have around 200 Shared Blocks !Must we delete each Shared Block before Pigment allow us to delete the whole App ? Thanks for your support !RegardsMatthieu  

Some of our users do a lot of scratch work in Sheet View. Is there a way to clear all those extra edits out and start from a clean slate?

Hello,I would like to test the ppt connector you are currently working on .Can you contact out to me ? Thanks

Hi,Is there a way to create a master button to import data in mutiple metrics at the same time instead on having to click 20 times (20 metrics) on each import data button ? Thanks for your help

Hi Everyone,I would like to merge two Dimensions into a new Text Dimension in order to get a Unique ID, using a FormulaBut the trick is that one of the two Dimension is a Date Data Type :Dim1 : Item.Code (Text Type)Dim2 : StartDate (Date Type)Formula result : Item.code &”_”& StartDateHow to make this formula ?Thanks in advanceMatthieu

Hi, Following another post that has been marked solved (Is this now possible ?- create import configuration- add a connector- trigger the import with the api (that uses the connector)If not at the present when would tthis be available ?

Hi everyone, I have two questions regarding input configuration in Pigments. 1. Conditional input depending on the versionWhen I enable data input in the metric settings (by checking “Allow overriding formula result with an input”), the input becomes available for all cells.However, I would like to enable input only for specific periods depending on the selected version.For example, for the Forecast Q2 version, the cells should be editable only from Q2, while Q1 should remain read-only because it contains actuals.Is there a way to restrict input to specific periods depending on the version? 2. Input

Hi - do model snapshots factor in Access Rights? In other words, if a user takes a snapshot but does not have full access, will the snapshot only include the data they have access to or will it still snapshot the entire model?

I accidentally deleted a snapshot, is there a way to restore it ?Thanks

Hello Pigment Community,I just want one option to be marked, if suppose Absolute is checked, then the other options (Percentage and fixed) cannot be checked. How can I do this?  Please kindly guide me to perform this operation. Thanks a lot!

I have a Calendar folder in [01] Data Hub app. As I create additional related apps should I create a new Calendar in each? I know I can open the Data Hub dimension to be shared  Can I dimension-chain my way back to the Data Hub time dimension’s properties? I use the Data hub Time period lists in the structure (dimension format) of Metrics in the related apps, can I reach data hub propts in formulas? 

Hello,I Have the below list of leads and I want to count 1 in the column Count only for the lastest lead of the company.The goal is to remove duplicate leads of my lead analysis.Thanks  

Hello,I have a question. Hope you guys can help me out. I have a metric dimensioned on week, business unit and version. This is calculated from a TL that is being continually and automatically updated from the source system. However, I would like to ‘freeze’ this data for specific versions. For instance, at this moment in time I would like to freeze the metric for the budget 2026. Later on (in a couple of months) I want to freeze the data for the first forecast of 2026 (but leaving the data for budget 2026 untouched of course). I was thinking along the lines of using a M2M import, but I can't seem to work out a scalable solution on how to import only item A and not item B of the same dimension. Maybe using data access rights? Thanks for your help.Best, Bas 

Hi Pigment - would you please share the difference between Previousbase and Previousof. They look the same from the documentation perspective. Thanks,Louie

 I am trying to recreate a table like this in Pigment where the scenario would be Actuals and Var $ and Var % are calculated items and $ per head is ‘Total $’ in ‘Show Values as % of’ format. In Pigment, the red cells end up calculating as a % of as well instead of a variance. Does anyone know of a work around for this? If I make an independent $ per head metric the total $ per head line will be inaccurate. Thank you! 

Hi!Could you please elaborate on what “preferred” means here? If dimensions are not in the preferred selection, will they be left out? Thanks,Louie  

Can we integrate Pigment with Python
