When creating a new source in Sifflet, a default refresh frequency is now set based on the source type:
These default frequencies will apply to new sources, but you can still select a custom refresh frequency as needed. We also recommend updating existing sources to align with these frequencies, ensuring that metadata in Sifflet remains up-to-date.
For more details on how we categorize sources, you can refer to our integrations documentation.

You can now automatically create Jira issues in case of monitor failure: whenever a Sifflet incident gets created, you can decide to have a Jira issue created in the appropriate project and with the appropriate issue type. This issue will then automatically be linked to the failing monitor and corresponding incident in Sifflet.
This streamlines incident management by embedding data quality alerts directly into your existing ticketing workflows, saving valuable time and ensuring issues are never overlooked. By empowering your team with immediate visibility and prioritization of data anomalies, we’re helping you maintain data trust and operational efficiency at scale.

Sometimes qualifying multiple points is required, for example when tagging multiple points as false positives.
We're introducing two new ways to batch qualify.
A new "Select" Mode has now been added to graphs. allowing the qualification of multiple anomalies at once!
Select the area for which you want to qualify anomalies and hit the Qualify button
We've added a Datapoint Summary Table to allow an easy review of the unqualified anomalies
Best Practice: Treat this as an inbox of anomalies left to treat. Make good use of the "Reviewed" and "No Action Needed Qualification" to easily qualify anomalies that have been seen
You can now view the domains an asset belongs to directly on its asset page and lineage side panel. This makes it easier for your teams to understand which business line an asset is associated to and which users can or cannot access a given asset. It also helps identify assets that haven't been added to any domain to improve organisation within your Sifflet account.
