Make all API's available across tenants.
Currently most API calls only work within the default tenant. As a developer this limits the ability to work with other projects.

Ability to change Pivot in Google Sheets Add-on

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.

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…

This would allow us to seamlessly execute external parts…
