SQL queries as logical tables in semantic views (General availability)
You can now use an SQL query (rather than a physical table) as a logical table in a semantic view. This lets you define logical tables based on joins, transformations, or any SQL expression without creating a separate view first.
Support for variables in semantic views (General availability)
You can now define variables in a semantic view to parameterize facts, dimensions, and metrics. Variables let you customize calculations at query time without changing the view definition. Define variables when you create a semantic view using the VARIABLES clause in the CREATE SEMANTIC VIEW command, or by adding a variables key in the YAML specification .
