August 2025 Release Notes

The new SQL Sandbox in the Objects and Events module allows you to safely test and validate your transformation data in a separate editor without impacting your source tables. Any commands performed in the SQL Sandbox are for testing purposes only and will not modify the source data within your transformation tables. Previously, your data could only be validated by either creating new objects and transformations for testing purposes or using objects in an existing transformation and then removing the SQL expressions before saving.

This SQL Sandbox can be accessed by clicking the SQL Editor link in the upper right of the Transformations page. This opens a blank SQL editor with your data sources shown on the left, but without parameters or data sets listed. Enter your SQL commands on the Editor tab and click the Run query button to validate your expression and preview the data returned. You can also click the “Preview” link next to a data source on the left to view the contents of that table in the Preview window.

You can now create global parameters that can be used across all transformations in Objects and Events. This reduces the multiple recurring steps and thereby clicks when (re)creating and updating local transformation parameters, making transformation parameters scalable across your Object Centric data.

When creating transformation parameters, select Global and either add a new parameters or apply an existing one:

For more information about modeling your objects and events, see: Creating custom transformations.

You can now configure a world map layout for the Network Explorer component in your Studio Views.

The Network Explorer component allows you to examine how objects are related across your business. By choosing different node dimensions, you can explore your object-to-object relationships by country, plant, material, or distribution and the KPI to display for each object.

To learn more about the Network Explorer component, see: Network Explorer.

Put your Tasks into action! With the new Create Task actions, you can initiate manual task creation directly from Studio components. For more information, see Adding Actions to Studio components.

You can now select the number of variants that display for individual event logs in Model Miner. Previously, a single slider controlled the number of variants that displayed across all event logs in a model.

The addition of a separate slider for each event log gives you better control and more flexibility, helping you create a more accurate baseline model.

For more information, see Reviewing and adding variants.

Process Explorer is updated to include a "Process Animation" feature that will visually depict how your cases flow through process activities and connections. By animating this process, it will be easier for users to follow the path of your processes rather than trying to visualize a flow on a static graph. This animation can be applied to processes with both single or multiple event logs.

The animation will not initially be active when your Process Explorer graph loads. Hover over the start node for an event log and click the Play button to begin the animation. This feature also adds a button in the lower left that allows you to pause and restart the animation at any point. Pausing the animation makes it easier to highlight specific activities within the process and then resume the process flow animation.

You will also be able to use the new Grouping dropdown to group the cases shown in the animation by hour or day in order to better identify patterns within the specified timeframe. When grouping is applied, the size of the animation bubble reflects the number of aggregated cases within that timeframe, with larger bubbles indicating larger numbers of cases. If grouping is not applied, the animation does not reflect aggregated case numbers.
