• Improved contrast: Upgraded theming tokens for better visibility in light and dark modes.

We are excited to introduce field value auto-completion in APL queries, enhancing your query writing experience by providing suggested field values as you type. This feature is designed to boost productivity and reduce errors while writing and managing queries.

An example using the where operator and string operator is included in the image above. As you type your query, the possible values for the method field appear automatically, allowing you to select the correct value quickly.

Our goal is to help you explore data faster, and this is one enhancement that should help with that.

We're excited to announce the new search operator in APL, a special operator that enhances data search capabilities by performing full-text scans over specified datasets. Instead of limiting you to particular fields or conditions, this feature allows for a broad search across multiple fields.

• Versatility: Search for a specific text or term across various fields within a dataset, without the need to specify each field.

• Efficiency: Save time by quickly locating the data you need.

To make APL Queries easier to work with we now support Query Options like strict types to silently enable type hinting for compatible data types behind the scenes.

For example, in normal operation, a field containing a mix of floats and integers can be worked with as if they are all numbers. However, there are times where you want to disable all such conversions, and then strict types query option lets you do this.
