Dimensions of "seasonality" argument for SEASONAL_LINEAR_REGRESSION


The documentation for the SEASONAL_LINEAR_REGRESSION function states that the
“seasonality” argument can have the following dimensions: No Dimension or
Dimensions of Text 1 I have two questions about this… When I try to use a metric
with no dimensions as this argument, I get the error “Function
SEASONAL_LINEAR_REGRESSION requires argument 2 to be a positive integer”. What
am I doing wrong? The metric where I’m using SEASONAL_LINEAR_REGRESSION has

I want to set up a dimension from a calculation


Hello community, I am creating a PnL report for our company. At the moment it
displays revenue (metric), cost (another metric), gross profit ( metric from
formula) and so on. The metrics are derived from a transaction table that I
imported. Now I would like to show the total USD and in the coloumn next to it I
want to display avg per person. I have calculated the Avg per person and managed
to create the same table as above from the avg metrics of the above metrics. BUT
because these are metrics, I cannot have them side by side in the table. If I
add the avg per person to my total table it will just add all the rows below. I
can move upp the “metric” in pivot to columns but then that messes up the
revenue, costs, gross profit placement etc. I created a dimension called version
and was able to attach that as a property to the total metrics and the avg
metrics, but haven’t found a way to union the two metrics with the variant
dimensions. So my question is, how can I create a dimension fro

Application Snapshot Limits

Snapshot limit alerts are available from the week of Dec. 9. Your Workspace has
a Snapshot limit based on your subscription plan. It’s best practice to take a
Snapshot of your data at the end of each planning phase. However, retaining
unnecessary Snapshots can lead to significant storage consumption and
organizational inefficiencies for Administrators. How do Snapshot limits work?
Members must have a Builder account type or higher, along with the Display
Application permission for the Application, to create Snapshots. Only
Application owners can delete Snapshots. Contact a Workspace Admin for support
if you’ve reached your Snapshot limit. You’ll receive an alert in your Workspace
once you reach your Snapshot limit. You must review and delete unnecessary
Snapshots after this alert or risk being temporarily blocked from Snapshot
creation. If you’re blocked from taking Snapshots, you must delete unnecessary
Snapshots to restore access to Snapshot creation. Contact a Workspace Admin to

I am working on setting up an integration between TeamOhana (headcount platform)

link, I have been able to set up the API connection and the action button to

API request so the transaction data in Pigment gets updated? Essentially where
is my data going if the API request result shows successful? FYI: It is
