Adaptive refresh mode for dynamic tables (General availability)
ADAPTIVE refresh mode for dynamic tables is now generally available. ADAPTIVE refresh uses incremental refresh by default but automatically reinitializes the dynamic table when internal heuristics detect that the volume of upstream changes makes an incremental refresh significantly more expensive than a full refresh.
Genie Agents enhancements and bug fixes
- Chat sharing : Sharing an individual Genie Agent conversation is now generally available. See Share a conversation . Download visualizations on Private Link (Beta) : You can now download visualization results through the Genie Conversation API on Private Link workspaces in supported regions. See the Conversation API reference .
