What's new in Sigma
AI Create AI columns (Beta) You can now create AI columns to enrich your data using natural language prompts. AI columns allow you to construct dynamic prompts that reference specific table columns, and can be helpful for tasks like enriching, summarizing, and classifying data. See Create AI columns (Beta) for more information.
Sandboxes, Infrastructure as Code
This week, Sandboxes are available in Priority Boarding from the dashboard and CLI, and Infrastructure as Code is available experimentally in CLI 5.2.0. Both features use the [Railway TypeScript SDK](https://github.com/railwayapp/railway-ts-sdk) (yes, we released a TypeScript SDK too).

Taxonomy MCP: Branch management and Create tools
Description: You can now build, iterate on, and ship tracking plan changes entirely through AI-assisted workflows. The Amplitude MCP server now includes create and branch management tools for taxonomy, bringing a workflow that was previously only available in the Amplitude UI to any AI assistant.
Web Experiment: Mutex groups, Holdout groups, and Experiment dependencies [Beta]
Description: As your experimentation program scales, controlling how experiments interact becomes critical. Web Experiment now supports mutual exclusion groups, holdout groups, and flag dependencies so you can run a more rigorous, isolated testing program. Mutual exclusion groups prevent users from seeing multiple experiments at once.
Per-Condition Retry Configuration
The new X-Fal-Retry-Config request header replaces all-or-nothing retry behavior with a separate retry budget per failure condition, allowing retry policy to be tuned independently for each failure mode.
