Troubleshooting agent (public preview)

When receiving an alert from Monte Carlo, the troubleshooting agent can automatically work through 100s of hypothesis and highlight the ones that are most likely to have caused the issue. It will consider changes in the data, system issues (e.g. Airflow or dbt failures) apd code changes when analyzing an alert, and will automatically traverse lineage to identify the root cause.

Learn more in the Troubleshooting agent documentation.


Streamlined Access Requests

When a user tries to open an alert they don’t have permission to view, Monte Carlo now provides a clear path forward with an Access Request option. Here’s how it works:

  • Users can request access directly from the landing screen
  • Account admins are notified by email of the request
  • Admins can decide whether to update the user’s role or group to grant access
  • Once permissions are updated, the user is notified by email and can return to the alert

We hope to streamline the process of getting unblocked, both by giving users a clear way to request access and by reducing the back-and-forth in organizations where it isn’t obvious who to contact. At the same time, access decisions remain fully in the hands of admins, ensuring the right level of control.


Domains Improvements: Exclusion, Assets+Tags

MC shipped a series of improvements to the domains creation experience -

  1. Users can now exclude assets in addition to include.
  2. Users can use tags along with assets selection
  3. New UI: the domain creation workflow got a brand new look, which includes a tree navigation and side-by-side assets v.s. selection summary.

A sleek new alert page is coming!

We're launching a brand new concept for our alert pages, across all alert types. This is a complete makeover of the page that improves clarity, usability and overall user experience. Some of the highlights of the new page include:

  • Less clutter, more focus on the information our users are most interested in when triaging/troubleshooting – specifically the chart/details of the alert
  • Critical triage actions are placed in the navigation bar – still very accessible, but taking less real estate and attention away from core information about the alert
  • Grouped events now have a more intuitive and concise visual representation
  • [coming soon] This page will be AI-native... Troubleshooting agent will become a more organic component of the page, using the space under the alert as a canvas for conversations


Our new alert page

Bucketing by 'Week' and 'Month' now supported in Metric Monitors

Historically, Metric Monitors supported bucketing data by hour and by day. We now also support bucketing by week and month, making it much easier to monitor sparse or infrequently updated data. For example, if a financial institution wants to do anomaly detection on data they get from an external partner once/month, that is now much easier to do than before.

In addition, when bucketing by week or month, the monitor now backfills much more historical data than before in order to understand seasonal trends. Up to 3 years of history is backfilled when bucketing by week, and up to 10 years when bucketing by month.

Auto filter warehouses for SQL monitor creation

For customers with many warehouse integrations, in SQL monitors creation view, MC now automatically filter the warehouse list by domain, so users will only see the warehouses mapped to the assets in the domain selected on top.
