CloudWorks Azure Integration - Connection Related API's
Similar to the API's available for AWS Connections in CloudWorks (refer below). The ability to do the same thing for Azure Blob Connections would be helpful. Specifically, updating of SAS tokens on connections. https://cloudworks.docs.apiary.io/#get_connections https://cloudworks.docs.apiary.io/#edit_connection

Keep Model In Memory (KMIM)- can we keep model cache alive , it will help with performance
n we keep the model cache in the buffer/memory (Keep running) alive, instead of clearing eveytime after logout? This will take a long time to load the model every time when size is huge ..otherwise we have to keep some dummy job running to Keep Model In Memory (KMIM)

Parquet file format
It would be great to have the capability to load parquet format files to Anaplan as it becomes more and more popular in databases. At the moment we need to add one more step to the integration process to change the format to csv./txt. before loading data to Anaplan.

New UX: Model Status/Refresh Messaging on New UX Page
Idea is to have a message or status on the New UX page in order to notify user that something is happening in the model that is causing the model to queue or be blocked (examples include: save state, actions, etc.). The lack of messaging causes massive frustration for users who think the New UX page is "slow". The classic…

Use setting grids as a model Import Dat Source
There are certain fields in the settings tables of a model that would be very useful to be able to easily import into a module for further calculation/model usability. The uses I have already encountered would be: * The 'user settings' table - this would allow filters and dynamic cell access more easily based on role, or…

Create an action using command line/shell script Instead of creating an action in anaplan.
The below feature is not yet to be included in the Anaplan Connect: Create an action using command line/shell script Instead of creating an action in anaplan.

Suggested Import Data Source
Would be nice if I could quickly select an import data souce when setting up new import based on the most recently created saved view. The suggested source item can be based on whatever the last source in the Import Data Source list is.

Pivot feature for Google add-ons
The information toolbar suggests that we pivot in Anaplan using filters and pivot feature. This is an inconvenience from the user experience perspective. If that were to be the case then we are better off creating views for everyone. Moreover, this feature that's been mentioned as information does not work as intended.…
-
Cloudworks to include all Process status just at running in Model manually
In Cloudworks, only the detailed status of failed Process/import/export is shown, the successful ones are not shown. Would be great if the details status (Updated, Ignored, Unsuccessful) will be recorded for all imports/exports run, so that users will be able to confirm if the Process has been run correctly.

Ability to Connect Power Point Add in with Dashboards
It would make every end users' life easier if we have an ability to connect Power Point Add-in directly with the dashboards instead of modules. Now Reporting page coming into action, it will make a lot of sense if we could just create the connection with any page/dashboard and boom power point is ready.

NUX Forms: Exception handling when duplicate code entered
When using forms to add to a list (where the code can be entered), users can accidently re-enter an existing code which triggers a model roll back, as it's considered a duplicate. There's also no notification the model is rolling back so it looks like the app is spinning its wheels. This leads to confusion and potentially…

CloudWorks Scheduling by Day of Month
It would be great if we could schedule Imports & Processes during Month End dynamically. e.g. Each Month I need to edit my schedule to update the Start Date & End Date for the relevant month end period. Would be great to have 1st day of month as a selection from Start Date and 7th day of month for End Date as an example so…

"While/Wend" or "Do Loop" Functionality in Anaplan
Within VBA, it is possible to create "Loop & Exit"/"While/Wend" or "Do Loop" functions. This allows formulae to continue running until an answer is produced. Within Anaplan, there are workarounds, but none are truly as flexible, and all have their limitations. Creating this functionality would close the gap on some of the…

API Calls for "Export PDF" in Reporting
It would be great if Anaplan had API's that could call for the "Export PDF" in reporting. Allowing for this would give customers a flexible way of automating the exports at whatever consistent frequency needed. Thank you..

Importing Large Files on Pages - Two Step process should be one step
When importing a large file during a Process on Pages, I'm required to first attach the file, and then wait for the attached file to finish uploading to Anaplan, and then I have to come back to the action to run it. However, in the original UX, this is all one process. Having this as a two-step process is preventing us…

Reject entire import if there's an error
I am building a model where I need to reject entire import whenever there's any error during import process. As of now them action runs and the module/list is getting populated but the cell which had incorrect value(reason for the error) is not, leaving it blank. This case is not ideal for the customer and they want to…

Ability to combine processes across models in CloudWorks
The use case is to orchestrate a data integration workflow in one CloudWorks schedule containing steps executing model-to-model imports from many processes residing in various models, e.g. update DataHuab lists and modules, then update planning model lists and modules, then update reporting model lists and update.

Force the API cell read to include Row Header Labels.
When using the data read API, any row dimensions do not have headers. This is an option in the Export tab when using the UI. When trying to process the results via code, I have run into issues a few times where this is a problem. Please consider always including the row label headers or at a minimum provide a setting to…

Allow for more control around duplicating, adjusting, and managing Exports
Imagine you need to update an export with a new column, but you want to retain the previous export for another group. In order to create this new use case, you now have to create an entire new export OR you have to inform the other team that you are adding in additional columns (even if you are allowed). Once you do fix…

Execute Import Action from Source Model
Currently, the import action needs to be defined and executed on the destination model. (Import by "Pull") Though the authority of the destination model should be set, it will be useful to execute the import action from the import source model. The improvement will be helpful to enable freely set the action execution…

"Search" box for the list when list is assigned as a line item format
As a model builder, I would prefer to have a "search" box to look for a list name when I assign a list as a line item format. Currently, I can only scroll to look for a list name. "Search" box is more efficient than scrolling when the list is quite extended . What do you think?
-
Differentiate if you are Importing into a Module or a List on the Actions system view
Create a new naming convention based off of the action being either an import to a Module or a List. EG. The L8 and 9 and 4th row would have List in the action section and the 3rd row would have Module in the name. This would be used to quickly reference things and make it easier to do research.
-
Provide detailed log on cloudworks
As an integration admin, it woulf be very useful to be able to get (through api or the ui) a log detail of the last cloufworks run for a given integration. This is necessary as the current error messages are a bit cryptic to understand like "process failed"

Google Sheet Addin: Remove leading spaces from Lists items
Our primary purpose for pulling data from Anaplan into Google Sheets is to use it as a data source. This purpose is made significantly more difficult by the formatting of list items brought in through the add in. Specifically, lists are formatted with leading spaces as you can see by the " Bookings" member in the…

Add Wildcard Functionality to Anaplan Connect Scripts
When working with the latest updates to Anaplan Connect I noticed a few of the scripts that require specific List IDs would be more effective if there was a wildcard option. This would allow users to pull every list from a model and all the related properties.

Search Option
Hello Modeler's I would like suggest one enhancement or feature, this is the thing I feel like anaplan should have search option. As we know most of us not like to scroll a lot for what we need. I found this while doing import action from anaplan with connect to anaplan models.There will be a lot of saved views we have and…

Allow importing items with the same name into different levels of a hierarchy
When importing items into a child list. If there is an item in that hierarchy which already has that name it will be ignored in the import. However if you create the list items manually, you can give items the same name at different levels of the hierarchy. It would be helpful to be able to flag certain items in list…

Restrict Characters in Open Text Line Items
It would be great if text formatted line items that are user inputs could be restricted to only allow certain characters. When users are allowed to input an escape character or newline, it can create problems for exports.

Allow multiple line item updates with the transactional API
The current write back to Anaplan supports a single line item, its intersection and its value. If trying to update multiple line items at the same intersection they whole block of json needs to be repeated for each line item. My recommendation would be to have the ability to have multiple key:value pairs per intersection…
