New Features

Current view box 

With this release, we introduce a Viewing box at the top of the sidebar that contains information about what you’re currently viewing in Daylight. The Viewing box is visible no matter what tab you’re in, and displays the following information:

...

Click Show less to contract the box. 

Project Management: Simplify data upload with a new Create Project page

We’ve released a new Create project page to make the data upload process easier and to reduce the amount of data formatting you need to do in Excel to prepare a file to upload.  Below is a list of things that changed.

...

When uploading data to an existing project, in addition to these new features, you will also see Warnings for metadata fields that don’t match between the project and the data being uploaded.

Enhancements

Search: Advanced Concept Search becomes universal default

We released Advanced Concept Search in version 2.3 in May 2020 as a user-selectable option to enhance the Daylight search experience. 

...

If you have questions about this change, please contact support@luminoso.com or your Luminoso CSM. 

Sidebar: Tabs move to top of sidebar 

With this release, we move the sidebar tabs to the top of the sidebar to maximize real estate in the app. We also exchanged the order of the Configure visualization and Filter documents tabs.

...

Sidebar: Streamlined shared concept list management 

With this release, we streamline the UI for shared concept list management. 

  • All shared concept list management tools are now grouped under the same expandable section

  • Now, to rename a list, you must click the rename pencil button next to the list name before you can enter any text

  • The delete button is now located  next to next to the rename button:

...

Sidebar: Improved layout for Configure visualization tab 

With this release, we add some layout changes to the Configure visualization tab that help make it easier to use, both on its own, and in relation to the rest of Daylight. Now, the tab:

  • Displays the Number of concepts dropdown to the right of the label.

  • Always displays the Number of concepts value. 

  • Includes a link to the Active concepts tab below the Active Concepts selector. 

  • Includes a link to the Filter documents tab below the Unique to this filter selector.

...

Single sidebar: Search details tab now sorts concepts by prevalence 


With this release, the Search details tab now shows concepts sorted by their prevalence when the search box is empty. Prevalence is the term Luminoso uses to describe a concept’s occurrence in a dataset compared to how often we’d expect the concept to occur in the language of analysis as a whole. 

For example, if the word “tree” shows up 1/1000 times in English language samples generally, but surfaces 200/1000 times in a Daylight project, it’s highly prevalent, even if it’s not the top most-used word in the project. As a measure, prevalence helps surface unique insights faster than a count that only used volume. 

Sidebar: Filters display more values

Typically, when you go to the Filter tab in the sidebar and expand one of the filters, you will see a list of the selectable options, such as with the “overall score” filter here.

...

The threshold for going from a list to the search box has been changed from 30 to 100. Now, for any filter containing 100 or fewer options, the selectable values will be shown in a list.

Drivers: Updated viewable drivers selection process 

With this release, we change the way you select which drivers you see in the Drivers scatterplot. Previously, you could use the selection options and eye icons in the Concepts tab of Drivers to select which drivers displayed in the scatterplot. 

...

If you’re using Autosuggest, you can select 10, 20, or 50 AI-identified drivers to view. Otherwise, select Active concepts to use your list of active concepts or a copy of a shared concept list. When you add or remove concepts in your active concept list, the change is immediately reflected in Drivers. 

Drivers: Dots displayed using Active Concept colors

When visualizing Drivers with Active Concepts, the dots are now displayed using the colors from the Concept definition. 

Project management: Completed build opens project immediately

In response to client feedback, we’ve updated the project build page to take you directly to a new project once it’s done building. 

Project management: Minor layout changes on Projects page

Minor layout changes have been made to the Projects page to make better use of real estate.

Highlights: Updated locations for project management buttons 

With this release, we remove the Project details card from Highlights, and change some of the actions you could take there into new buttons for:

...

Additionally, you can now find some of the project details previously stored in the card in the footer. 

...

Settings: Settings page now accessible only from the upper right corner 

With this release, the Settings page is now only accessible from the upper right corner, under your username. This also means that the “Project” hyperlink with a downward facing arrow was removed. Now, open the Projects page by clicking the Luminoso icon in the top ribbon .   

...

Settings: Updated organization of sidebar 

Now, the settings page navigation is organized into Personal settings, Team settings, and Support sections to help you navigate more easily.

We also added more documentation links to the Support section. 

...

Science: Improvements to sentiment calculation speed

With this release, we introduce improvements to our Sentiment science that helps Daylight calculate sentiment data more quickly when rebuilding a project. 

API Updates

API: Updates to Shared concept list endpoints

We made some updates to the Shared concept list API endpoints. 

...

You can also add "name" as an option for concept_list selector. You can read more about this option in the Concept selector section of the API documentation. 

API:  Formatting improvements for concept list names 

With this release, we add an improvement that strips white space from concept list names. Additionally,  blank concept list names are no longer permitted in the API. 

Fixes

Sentiment: The read more toggle no longer turns off if you scroll down or move your mouse away 

Now, the Read more toggle in Sentiment no longer turns off if you scroll down or move your mouse away. 

Sentiment: Export option is no longer available for projects without sentiment analysis

Daylight no longer offers the option to export projects that don’t include sentiment analysis, since there is no information to export. 

Filters: Displays more accurate message when a filter is too small

We improved an error message that appeared when filter selections resulted in too few verbatim to display any concepts. The new message reads: 

  • "The documents in the current filter don't have enough concepts to display. Try changing or clearing the filter."

Account management: SAML users no longer have issues accepting invitations to Daylight 

SAML users were having problems accepting invitations, due to a problem on the backend. This bug is fixed.

API: 500 error bug resolved 

The API was returning a 500 error when it encountered a concept_list concept selector that had a bad ID. 

Now, it returns a 400 INVALID_PARAM, the standard error when an invalid parameter is supplied to the API. 

API Deprecations

API: v4 Token management Endpoints removed 

With this release, the v4 API endpoints related to token management for which a deprecation notice was provided as part of the 3.1 release have been removed. 

For more details, please refer to the deprecation notice in the release notes for the 3.1 release. 

API: All v4 endpoints are now marked as deprecated

With this release, all v4 API endpoints are marked as deprecated. These endpoints will be removed as of the Q3 2021 release. As of this release, all v4 functionality is duplicated in the v5 API, with the exception of:

API: exact_only parameter removed

With this release, we remove the exact_only parameter from the API. It was initially marked for deprecation a year ago.
