Datmodo 1.1¶
Released October 6, 2026
Datmodo 1.1 is built for big data. You can upload datasets of hundreds of gigabytes to a project and chart them like any other data. Projects become your home base, and the platform moves to Apache Superset 6.1.
Highlights¶
- Project databases from uploaded data. Upload very large files to a project and query them in charts, dashboards and SQL Lab.
- Faster queries on large datasets. Heavy queries run in the background on dedicated compute and stay cached.
- Projects is the new home page, with a welcome screen to help you set up your first project.
- Superset 6.1 brings a refreshed look and the latest charting and SQL Lab features.
New features¶
-
Upload data into a project database. Data → Upload data (or Upload database on a project page) takes files from your computer or from the project's File Manager folder. You name each file and add it to a new or existing database. Each file becomes a dataset that works in charts, dashboards and SQL Lab.
-
Refresh with a preview. Refresh database shows what's new, changed or removed since the last refresh and converts only the changes. If anything fails, the previous version keeps working, and you can restore earlier versions.
-
Share a database with other projects. A project database can be shared read-only with other projects.
- Share workspace subfolders with teammates. Give other project members read or write access to a folder in your personal workspace, in the Portal and in DDP Drive.
- Projects home page. After you sign in, you land on Projects, which is now first in the navigation. New users see a welcome screen with a Create your first project button, and visitors who aren't signed in see a short introduction to the platform.
Improvements¶
- Upgraded to Apache Superset 6.1, with the latest chart types, SQL Lab improvements and a refreshed interface.
-
Consistent look across the platform. The header, theme and loading screen match whether you're in dashboards, SQL Lab, Projects, File Manager or Workflow Builder.
-
Large-dataset queries run in the background on dedicated compute, so charts on files of hundreds of gigabytes no longer time out. Results stay cached until the data is refreshed.
- Large CSV files convert reliably and show progress while they convert. Column types (numbers, dates, true/false values) are worked out from every value. Identifiers with leading zeros and dates with an ambiguous day/month order stay as text, so they're never changed by mistake.
- One Databases section on each project page, with Connect database and Upload database buttons and separate tables for connected and uploaded databases.
Fixes¶
- SQL Lab query results and query history load reliably.
- DDP Drive connects reliably when you have access to several folders.
- Admins can open the user and role management pages again.
- Navigation links and the Datmodo logo point to the right pages everywhere, and the browser back button no longer shows outdated pages.
- The File Manager hides the internal folder that stores uploaded databases, so it can't be edited by accident.
