Source Object Name refresh in Import Data Sources tab of Actions (Model Settings)

New UX: Ability to view and export "codes" as labels in grid view

Likewise, having the option to export with the code. A small example is below. I note the export…

Excel Add-in: refresh all connections in a workbook at once
Hi It would be great if you could refresh all connections at once in one excel workbook. Currently, each sheet has to be done manually. In some of our excels we use for reporting, I have 15-20 sheets as currently you can only have 1 connection / 1 sheet. This would help a lot in efficiency. Thanks Kinga

As Solution Architect / Model builder, I would like to be able to create a "connection" in CloudWorks Anaplan using a webservice managed by Anaplan which automatically updates in the backend a file that contains the periodically updated CurrentTimestamp in UTC (something like "2021-02-01T14:10:45"). I will know this will…

When working in a worksheet the user is able to add various cards (text, field etc.) to the additional insights pane and even add a process/action to these various cards. However, the Action icon in the top right of the card is extremely small compared to most large blue processes Anaplan offers in the UX. Can we increase…

Ability to change Pivot in Google Sheets Add-on
The Google Sheets add-on doesn't let us change the dimensions in the Pivot when setting up the connection, unlike the Excel add-in. We need to create custom views in the model to be able to pull the data in the format we want. This is a big deterrent towards adoption of the Google Sheets add-in and restricts the…

Ability to test the Docusign Integration without sending out an Envelope
DocuSign currently charges a rate for sending out envelopes, and clients would save money if we allowed them to test the integration without having them send out an envelope. If you are working on a large document, you may be testing a number of envelopes to test. This can cost the client quite a bit just to do testing. My…

Import in a list. Fileds mapping - need empty mapping selector in a drop down
Hello I've noticed one thing which is not native for many beginner anaplanners. While we set-up import to the numbered list and we should not have any mapping in the name field (as we choose to use a code as a default way to identify items). But quite often it is pre-populated and in a drop-down there is no option for a…

Export defined in a model should be connected to a view
Hello Team, Currently, when we create exports and save them in actions - they are disconnected from real module views. Example: if you create a new export definition, based on a current view (with a filter or smth else) it is not possible to revisit and amend this view after some time and see what view is feeding an export…

Action Button to Trigger Outbound Requests (GET, POST etc.)
It would be great to have a button on new ux available that could be configured to send an outbound request to an external endpoint (GET, POST etc.), for now even an empty request could be helpful, but bonus points for allowing a configurable payload within Anaplan. This would allow us to seamlessly execute external parts…

Publish Export Actions to UX without creating a Process button
At present we can publish all other actions to UX except for Export Actions, without creating a process button. It would be nice to publish the export action without having to create a process button. We could create process button only for those which needs to be grouped together. When we have siloed export process of one…
