Feature Ideas
Submit IdeaReturn `total row count` from `loadData` to make pagination easier.
Cube supports setting total to true (here) in order to have it return the total row count (here). In Embeddable we set this to false, as setting it to true can be very detrimental to query performance. A workaround, for pagination in Embeddable, is to use a second loadData request to request the row count. This roadmap ticket is about exposing the option to set total to true and return it in the loadData response, so that you don't need a separate loadData request.

Component thumbnails
When you click "Add component" in the builder it currently shows a list of component names. We'd like to have it show preview thumbnails so you can see what the components look like. This idea is not related to the end-user experience. It relates to how the components are shown in the "Add component" modal in the builder.

Add a drilldown in the no-code builder
Drilldowns are super helpful for end users, so being able to add them within the no-code builder is really important - e.g. by opening a sub-embeddable via a modal.

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

Support for different timezones
Currently Embeddable uses UTC by default (e.g. when aggregating results by day / week / etc.). We plan to support supplying a timezone, per dashboard session, so each user can see the results in the timezone that makes sense for them. This will also involve making the caching layer timezone-aware.

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

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

Folders for Embeddables
Make it easier for Embeddable builders to organise their Embeddables using folders.

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}

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.

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

Ability to push a dashboard from dev to live workspace
Currently you might build a dashboard in dev that you then want to "push" to a live workspace
