Improvement Builder
We've upgraded the in Builder maps, shifting the data export process to work in server-side mode for an enhanced efficiency and data integrity. This improvement ensures a more reliable data retrieval experience.
Additionally, when exporting data as CSV, it now includes the geometry column in WKT (Well-Known Text) format, if applicable. This enhancement simplifies data handling and boosts compatibility with various geospatial tools, making integrations smoother.
Looking to leverage this enhanced functionality for RDS for PostgreSQL data sources? Don't forget to set up the necessary S3 bucket integration to enable the export feature. For more details and guidance, check out our .

New Workflows
It can be used to help analyze the result of an enrichment; to generate labels or categories based on variables on your table; or could also generate new content for each row on your data, using different variables to compose a prompt that will be evaluated on each row.
With this new addition, Generative AI capabilities are handy and readily available from Workflows.

New Workflows
The node's data will be exported as a series of files, which URLs will be stored in a table. Just inspect the Data tab in the results panel to access the links to each file.
This component is currently available for all CARTO Data Warehouse and BigQuery connections.

Improvement Workflows
We have added a few improvements to the results panel in Workflows that are focused on better usability and data exploration capabilities:
Renovated, sleeker design;
See when the workflow was executed for the last time;
Easily find the number of columns and rows of a result;
Explore the complete result with pagination for optimal performance;
Copy the content of a page to the clipboard, ready to be pasted into a spreadsheet;
Analyze statistics of each column:
Frequency of the Top 20 categories for string, date and timestamp columns;
Maximum and minimum values, average and sum for numeric columns.
SQL control code is hidden to facilitate readability.

New Workspace
You can now set up an OAuth integration to connect CARTO and Snowflake. This allows users to follow their usual Snowflake login flow (Snowflake OAuth) to set up their connections in CARTO, which has security benefits and is a more familiar process for all Snowflake users.
If you have an external identity provider integrated in Snowflake such as Azure Active Directory or Okta, we also support External OAuth to achieve the same process.

New Builder
Thanks to this new feature you can quickly and easily analyze data proportions and category weights, allowing for better understanding of each data category within your dataset. This enhancement empowers users to make more informed decisions by providing a clearer view of their data.
We have added a to Workflows that leverages capabilities to allow embedding Generative AI functionalities into your geospatial analytical pipelines.
We have just released a that allows exporting the result from any node in a workflow to a storage bucket.

We're excited to announce the latest feature in Builder - a tool that will allow users to measure distances between two points on their maps.
In Builder, you now have the capability to style your qualitative data using hex color codes pulled directly from your table or SQL query sources. If you're curious about generating these hex color codes, we've prepared a to assist you, detailing the steps using either Workflows or SQL. What's especially exciting? The range of possibilities this opens up. Whether you're aligning with your company's branding, looking to automatically style a high number of categories, or exploring diverse color schemes, the choice is all yours.
Take a look at our catalog of workflows examples !
We have added a new mechanism to . Just download an example from the gallery, drag and drop into your CARTO Workspace (or browse a file from your computer) and the workflow will be automatically re-created in your account.
And also we have just added a new way to . Either from a local file in your computer, or from a URL, this new feature facilitates the task of incorporating data into your analytical pipelines.
The new is designed to simplify the visualization of complex categorical data in Builder, making it more user-friendly and insightful.
