Please consider improving the bug reporting workflow. Currently, I try to describe in words via an issue ticket the steps needed to reproduce a bug and the expected result, and the issue ticket requires the bug report to be tied to a file or object.

Instead, please consider a way to capture video within the platform for bug reporting.

For example, I’m seeing a bug in Monocle, that honestly I wasn’t going to report due to other priorities, but it’s a good example where I wish I could’ve natively recorded a 5 second screen grab in Foundry to report it to Palantir. In Monocle, the Expand → Expand All (“>>”) is not expanding nodes beyond an OSv2 Materialization dataset. This contributed to a stale data issue where we first checked the impact of deleting a column from a dataset by using Monocle’s Expand All from a dataset, noted all object types that were then visible, and then deleted the column and updated those object types’ configurations. This broke a downstream object type that was using that column because the Expand All didn’t show nodes beyond the OSv2 Materialization.
