Ability to 'publish' multiple Embeddables in one go
Currently if you have a new code version, you need to go in and re-publish each Embeddable individually. It would be super useful to be able to do this in bulk

Dashboard queries, to the same dataset, should use a single query against the database (where possible)
Queries against your database (especially warehouses like BigQuery and Snowflake) are expensive, and so, if a dashboard can perform a single query to get the data needed to populate multiple charts, this would significantly reduce the cost of a dashboard. Note: This is different to pre-aggregations, which load data pre-emptively and keep them refreshed. This is instead about requesting data from the database on-demand, but reducing the number of necessary queries to do so.

Allow filtering on pre-selected datasets in Custom Canvas templates
When a dataset is pre-selected in a template component, filter/sort/limit options become unavailable after the template is used. If the dataset is left unselected, filtering is available - but this adds an unnecessary step for end users. The request is to support both: pre-selecting a dataset in the template AND allowing users to filter on it post-use.

A Duplicate button on dashboard widgets
Wouldn't it be amazing if there was a copy/clone button close to the Edit and Delete ones 🥺

Show/hide parts of a dashboard based on a variable
Sometimes a part of a dashboard only makes sense to show once the user has selected an input.

Containers for components
To make building dashboards in the no-code builder easier, we'll introduce the concept of 'containers' to layout components on the canvas

API to programmatically configure an Embeddable dashboard
Something to ease a component prop migration, or to create a template in case we go into the hundreds of dashboards. E.g. a basic import/export JSON endpoint to configure an Embeddable

Support for nested AND and OR logic in dataset filters
Currently dataset filters all use simple AND across each filter. It is, however, common that you might want to use OR instead, or a nesting thereof.

Clone a dashboard from prod to local dev
It would be useful to be able to clone a dashboard from the live workspace to local dev preview so that it could be worked on locally

Schedule Embeddable dashboard delivery
Enable users to schedule Embeddable delivery via email/Slack/Teams etc.

Embeddable metadata API
An API for retrieving the metadata for a published Embeddable dashboard: The canvas layout (position and size of each widget)The component values (input values and types for each of the component inputs)etc. E.g. GET https://api.embeddable.com/api/v1/embeddables/{embeddableId}

Manage user permissions
Be able to manage your user permissions within your team on Embeddable, for example limit who is able to publish a dashboard, who is able to push code to Embeddable. Also called RBAC (role-based access control).

API to export Embeddable dashboard to PDF
Like this (https://restpack.io/html2pdf) but specifically for your embeddable dashboards
