We're looking to feed live or near-live Anaplan data into Claude through MCP, but our current approach — exporting CSV files via the Anaplan Bulk Export API, loading them into MySQL, and querying from there — has a significant lag (hour-long turnaround). Curious if anyone has found a faster path, whether that's through the…
What's the #1 bottleneck in your Anaplan build cycle right now? A. Model documentation B. Onboarding new builders C. Optimizing slow formulas Curious which one takes the most time for your team and how you're currently addressing it.
If an AI agent could build your next Anaplan module from a plain-language prompt, would you trust it, or would you still rebuild it yourself line by line? Curious to hear how comfortable people would be with AI-generated Anaplan models and what level of validation you would expect before using the output.
The July and August releases added several useful capabilities to Anaplan AI, including the ability to create and retrieve saved views and create list import actions. It would be valuable to extend these capabilities to support the full end-to-end user story: creating a saved view and using it as the source for an import…

Some background : I have 2 IDs ( my company`s ID and our client ID ) both are identical in term of set up in plan ( roles permissions etc. ) . The…
Problem: Co-modeler often suggests formulas that don't work - invalid syntax, or timeouts requiring manual copy/paste that still fails. This forces users to debug the suggestion and explain the model's structure back to the tool (often having to leverage another AI like Chat or Claude) instead of just applying a working…
Hello there, we are using AnaplanXL to pull data from 3 different sources into one Excel file. Two of them are Azure SQL data bases and the third is Anaplan itself. Whenever the Excel is opened 3 pop up windows to log in to each data base appear. Until they appear and everything is entered or clicked already 2 minutes are…
Done with the course but want to practice a bit more before I take the Level 1 exam
Hi, I'm using the OFFSET formula, where a calculated and number-formatted field determines how many previous weeks the formula should look back. Based on this value, it retrieves the corresponding week's data into the output line item. The formula works correctly for some products; however, it fails for others. The issue…
Hello All, I am stuck on this ask for DCA and I can't figure out what is holding me up. I have seen a number of people try to tell people the answer but after being stuck for over an hour would love some help understanding why my answer isn't working. I am trying to recreate the DCA seen below with the description for the…
Has anyone tested Analyst’s response quality/speed on large, sparse models (think 10+ dimensions, millions of line items)? Wondering if there’s a practical ceiling before it starts timing out.
Hello there, I just had the most unenjoyable experience in speaking with someone from the Academy tech support. Level 2, Dynamic Cell Access 2.4.5 has a model to download. Seems simple enough. However, what they fail to remind you in the training video or anywhere on the screen, is that if you don't have the Page Builder…
We've been building a tool called aplan4sheets and we'd genuinely like input from this community — both on what we've built so far and on what we should prioritize next. The problem we set out to solve: Anaplan's Excel add-in is Windows-centric, and there's no real native way to pivot Anaplan data in Google Sheets. We…

Interested individuals will respond to this 5-minute survey to help us understand personal needs and behavior when using the add-in. The feedback provided by survey takers is essential to the roadmap of Anaplan's products.…

I have designed a simple new UX Page (Page:A) so it can be viewed on a regular laptop / monitor size screen. This Page (Page A) is also viewable on the Anapaln mobile App (with no loading issues), but involves lots of scrolling to see the whole Page content I have been trying to design a simple mobile App friendly size…

I have a question about the new Expand or collapse grid rows option. Is it possible to publish a grid containing a 5-level hierarchy so that all items from levels 1 and 2 are always visible? And I do not want to use a filter for this.

Please let me know 2)Also it says Update another line…
Since account targets are allocated by the ratio of previous year revenue, an account with no history would get a target of zero. Is that expected, or do new accounts get a target another way?
Polaris doesn't support FIRSTNONBLANK as a function parameter. I have a solution workaround for this already but not too happy with it. So wanted to know what solution workaround people have done to get around this limitation
