June 26 Release (v50)
Wave Browser Extension v50 is here, bringing a powerful set of enhancements that help your team work faster and with more context, right inside the grid. From the all-new 360 Snap experience to greater flexibility in Matrix timelines and rules, this release brings meaningful upgrades to how you view, filter, and manage your data.
These enhancements have also been extended from Wave Embedded v22, ensuring a consistent and seamless experience across both platforms.
Release Highlights 🎉
360 Snap
How many times has your team had to open a separate tab, navigate away, or switch context just to get the full picture of a record? That's time lost and focus broken.
360 Viewer ends that. Now, every record in your Wave Grid is a single click away from showing you everything you need: the full record details, related lists, and the ability to make changes all within a clean, structured panel that sits right inside your grid.
No tab switching. No navigation. No lost context.
What is 360 Viewer?
360 Snap gives every user in your organization a complete, contextual view of any Salesforce record directly inside the Wave Grid and Matrix. Click on a record or a related lookup field, and a 360 View panel opens instantly, showing:
The record's key details
All the header fields you care about, laid out cleanly. No scrolling through a full Salesforce page.
All the related lists in one place
See Opportunities, Cases, Contacts, or any related data organized in tabs on the left, with the full grid experience on the right.
Editable, right where you are
Make changes to record fields or related list data without navigating away. Save with confidence using the same familiar Save Changes workflow.
360 Viewer is also supported on the Matrix Y-Axis, bringing the same full record experience to your matrix grids.
Why It Matters?
Your team works in the grid because it's fast, structured, and powerful. 360 Viewer extends that power so users never have to leave to get the context they need.
Open a record → wait for Salesforce to load → find the related list → navigate back → lose your place in the grid.
Click once → see everything → edit what you need → save → stay in the grid.
Ready to set it up? See the 360 Snap Documentation for a full configuration guide.
Slim & Sleek Toolbar
The Toolbar has been redesigned to be slimmer and sleeker across both Grids and Matrices. Designers now have granular control over which toolbar items are visible at runtime and how they are displayed (icon only, or icon with label).
Grid Updates ✨
Date and DateTime Support in Formula Fields
Formula Fields now support Date and DateTime as return types, in addition to the existing Number and Text types. A new set of date-specific functions is available, allowing Designers and Standard Users to create calculated date columns such as days until close, contract duration, or deadline status directly in the Wave grid.
What's New at a Glance
New return types
Date, DateTime, added alongside String, Number, Boolean, Currency
now()
Returns the current date and time
dateDiff(d1, d2, unit)
Difference between two dates in days, weeks, months, or years
dateAdd(date, n, unit)
Adds or subtracts days, weeks, months, or years from a date
date(y, m, d)
Constructs a date from year, month, and day integers
year() / month() / day()
Extracts individual components from any date field
formatDate(date, fmt)
Returns a date as a formatted display string
Note
Time components are not supported when the output type is Date. Any DateTime input will have its time component discarded.
Filter by Color — Rule Driven Visual State Filtering
Users can now filter grid rows by their Rule state directly from the Legend panel or a column header dropdown. When rules are applied to a grid, the Filter by Color option lets users instantly isolate rows that match a specific rule such as rows highlighted in a particular color, marked as read-only, or flagged with a bar indicator without needing to set up manual field filters.
Fiscal Year Support in Rules and Header Filters
Rules and Header Filters now support Standard and Custom Fiscal Year configurations from Salesforce. Fiscal Year and Quarter literals align with the fiscal settings defined in your Salesforce org, allowing rules and filters to evaluate data accurately against your organization's fiscal calendar. If fiscal settings are not configured, standard calendar behavior is maintained
Copy Link — Shareable Custom Grid Links
Users can now generate and share a secure link to a Custom Grid directly from the Share Grid dialog. The generated link can be copied and shared with peers, who can access the grid if they are in the same org. Links are secure and do not expose any internal identifiers. A link can be revoked at any time, immediately revoking access for all users it was shared with.
Matrix Updates ✨
Matrix Timeline Enhancements
The matrix timeline offers more flexibility in how date intervals are configured and displayed on the X-axis.
Salesforce Fiscal Year Support in Matrix Timelines
Matrix timelines support Salesforce fiscal calendars. When the Fiscal year type is selected, X-axis date buckets align with the fiscal periods configured in your Salesforce org — across weeks, months, quarters, and years. If fiscal settings are not configured, the matrix falls back to standard calendar-based timeline generation.
More Flexibility in Telescopic Matrix Timelines
Telescopic timelines now support week-based combinations, including:
Weeks → Quarters → Years
Weeks → Months → Quarters → Years
Custom Date
The Choose Date Format dropdown includes a Custom option, allowing you to define your own date format for X-axis column headers using supported date tokens, labels, and separator characters.
The following tokens, labels, and separators are supported:
Date tokens
DD, {W}, MM, MMM, MMMM, {Q}, YY, YYYY
Labels
W, Wk, Q, FY
Separator characters
\ / , . : ; ' ` ~ ! ( ) [ ]
Matrix – Two-Level X-Axis Configuration
The matrix X-axis now supports two levels of column headers, allowing data to be grouped and displayed hierarchically or inline across two dimensions. Designers can configure how the two levels are displayed either as a parent-child hierarchy or combined into a single header using a separator of their choice giving users a clearer, more structured view of comparative data.
Rules in Matrix
Rules are now available in the Matrix, bringing the same rules capability from the Grid to the Matrix. Designers can define conditions using fields from the Y-axis, X-axis, and data objects, and apply a range of formatting actions to cells, rows, and columns. New matrix-specific actions include Column Format and Column Highlight, which apply formatting to X-axis columns and their data cells. Filter by Color for rule-driven filtering is supported on the Y-axis.
