The "Event Trends (Sample)" dashboard in the Data Visualization component of Skylar Analytics now displays the Policy Name instead of the Policy ID, making the dashboard easier to read and understand.
-
Added the ServiceNow record ID (external_id) to the "BusinessServices" dataset in the Data Visualization component of Skylar Analytics. This ID enables reporting and integrations to reliably correlate Business Services with their originating ServiceNow records. The filter_guid and search_additional_orgs values were also added.
-
This release includes a number of updates to improve processing time and overall performance for Skylar Analytics.

Known Issues
This release has the following known issues:
- If you had customized tables and views in an older version of the Data Visualization component of Skylar Analytics, that data will not display correctly if you upgrade to Skylar AI version 2.1.0. Any tables and views created in the local database require that the "InstID" and "OrgID" columns contain data for related datasets, charts, and dashboards to be functional. You should not experience this issue if your tables and views in the local database contain values in the "InstID" and "OrgID" columns. (Jira ID: SKY-3824)
- The "Interface Statistics (Sample)" dashboard was deprecated with Skylar AI version 2.0.0. A Skylar AI administrator will need to remove this dashboard on the tab of the Dashboards page (
> Analytics > Settings > Dashboard Mgmt). (Jira ID: SKY-2822) - A Skylar AI instance can ingest telemetry from multiple external sources, but only one Skylar One system should be configured to send telemetry to that Skylar AI instance to prevent data collisions and potential data corruption. To avoid this situation, do not reuse a Skylar AI authentication token with more than one Skylar One systems that are sending data to that Skylar AI instance. (Jira ID: SKY-3538)
- Skylar AI uses unique PowerPack naming conventions for creating datasets in the Data Visualization component. If you change the name of a PowerPack, Skylar AI triggers a new dataset, which will cause charts to fail and lose the historical data for that PowerPack. At this time, ScienceLogic recommends that you do not rename any PowerPacks in Skylar One if that Skylar One system is connected to a Skylar environment.
