Hello everyone,I am a UI/UX Designer who is new to Cognite Data Fusion and the Cognite ecosystem.I would like to better understand:How UX designers typically contribute to CDF projects Common user journeys and workflows within CDF Design challenges users face when working with industrial data Available design guidelines, design systems, or UI best practices for Cognite applications Recommended learning resources for someone coming from a traditional enterprise UX backgroundAny examples, documentation, or advice would be greatly appreciated.Thank you!

Hi everyone,We're excited to share one of the standout features from our Q3 release: real-time, multi-user collaboration in Industrial Canvas — now in Private Preview.The problem we're solvingUntil now, Industrial Canvas has been a single-user experience. That meant teams working on the same problem couldn't work in the same space at the same time — creating silos and slowing down team-based decision-making.What's newIndustrial Canvas is becoming a truly collaborative workspace, where multiple users can work together simultaneously — exploring data insights side-by-side and driving faster, unified decisions together. Where this creates value — real use cases (not limited to):Root Cause Analysis — multiple engineers investigate different parts of a failure simultaneously and consolidate findings instantly. Field-to-Office Bridge — field operators and back-office engineers mark up the same P&ID together, in real time. Meeting Facilitation — run operational reviews or shift handovers

Hello Cognite Team,I am not sure whether this should be reported as a bug, a configuration issue, or an intended behavior change, but I would like to ask for your help in understanding the situation.We are using alert notifications in Charts to monitor several items. In the past, alert emails were successfully sent not only to the chart creator but also to additional subscribers that were registered for the alert.Recently, however, only the chart creator appears to be receiving alert emails.When I checked the subscription settings, only the creator was displayed in the subscriber list. I tried adding additional subscribers multiple times, and the system indicated that the changes were saved successfully. However, the added subscribers do not appear in the list after saving, and they do not receive any alert emails.The same process worked correctly before, so I am not sure whether this could be related to a recent change, a configuration issue on our side, or a potential product issue.C

I used the Atlas AI agent (default) to locate two timeseries, and then clicked on the “add to dashboard” button. The chart got added, and the title indicates both are added, but the chart only has a single visible line. If I move the mouse pointer down, it snaps to another value (notice the location of the blue point), but not sure if this is the other timeseries or if it is a spike from the raw data that is not shown due to downsampling on the chart. Also, the time range selection do not change the timerange for the chart  

Currently if I perform a search, in equipment for example, I can only display the first 100 results with no ability to see the remaining results.  There is also no way for me to export the results to an excel spreadsheet. We can work around the export issue but there doesn’t appear to be a workaround for viewing more than the 100 first results.

We are committed to continuously improving your experience in Industrial Canvas. Our goal is simple: help you generate value faster through a seamless, uninterrupted workflow—eliminating the friction of slow load times and performance lag. With our March release, Industrial Canvas now loads 50% to 70% faster on average. We’ve also reduced memory usage by up to 70% during loading, even for your most complex canvases. We look forward to hearing your feedback!Best,Andreea

Hi everyone, At Cognite, we strive to ensure that every tool in the Cognite Data Fusion workspace meets our high standards for security, performance, and user experience.The Image and Video Management interface (found under the Data Management workspace) has reached a stage where it can no longer be maintained to those standards. To focus our efforts on more robust, integrated data exploration tools, we are initiating a 12-month deprecation period for this specific interface. This means that the Image and Video Management interface will be deprecated on 17 February 2027.What is changing?The standalone Image and Video Management app is entering its sunset phase. This includes: The specialized Map view for finding image and video data. The Annotation tool for images. The integrated Video streaming/viewing interface within this specific app. Note: This deprecation only affects the management interface. Your raw image and video files stored in CDF remain safe and accessible via the API

Hi everyone!We know that for an end-user, finding data shouldn't feel like a "needle in a haystack" mission. Last summer, we launched Per-Project Search Configuration, and if you haven't set it up yet, your team might be missing out on a much cleaner experience.As a Project Admin, you have the power to curate what your users see when they sign into Search. Instead of a generic view of data that maps 1:1 to your detailed data model definition, you can hand-deliver the most relevant data.Why configure your categories? Instant Clarity: Define exactly which columns appear first. No more side-scrolling to find the "Status" or "ID." Relevant Filtering: Hide the noise. Display only the filters that actually matter for that specific category. Context at a Glance: Tailor the "Properties" card so the most crucial metadata is front and center. ⚡ Quick Start Guide: Check Access: Ensure you have appconfig:read/write and app-scope = Search. Your users also need appconfig:read to make the config

An old version(v1.0.something) of PI extractor was setup in a production environment. We stopped that version for about a month and then installed the latest version v4.14 in a new VM. We have specified the backfilling and front filling settings as below but we still can’t see the historical data in CDF, any ideas what would have happened?frontfill: skip: false streaming-interval: 5 delete-data-points: false use-data-pipe: truebackfill: skip: false step-size-hours: 0 to: 0 

Hello,Please reset my mfa account.nbhatewara@slb.com Appreciate.

Hello, We have a very big CDF workflow with many parrallel steps. When a step fails, all the steps fails with “404: Session was not found.” (because the failing step deleted the session) all steps are market as failed. It makes debugging and finding the real failing step very tedious ! Any improvement planned for this? Any workaround? Thanks

 Issue SummaryCreating `CogniteFile` instances in Data Modeling Service (DMS) automatically creates unwanted "ghost files" - duplicate file resources that are incomplete and have no external_id, no dataset_id, and no content. This causes the Diagram Parser UI to display incorrect file IDs and show "Files not uploaded" errors.  Environment- Project: tridcognite-sanbox- Cluster: aw-was-gp-001.cognitedata.com- Dataset ID: 1242342447467142- Space: diagram_parser_space_1- Data Model: diagram_parser_data_model_1 (version 1)- Python SDK Version: 7.78.0---Methods Used:Method 1: SQL TransformationINSERT INTO cdf_cdm.CogniteFile(v1)SELECT   CAST(externalId AS STRING) as externalId,  CAST(name AS STRING) as name,  CAST('application/pdf' AS STRING) as mimeType,  CAST(TRUE AS BOOLEAN) as isUploadedFROM `Diag_Parser_Cement`.`parser_files_staging`WHERE externalId = 'cement-parser-file-crusher-pid' Transformation Configuration:- Destination: Instances- Space: diagram_parser_space_1- View: cdf_cdm.Cogn

Hello,When testing the new Diagram Parser tool on Vector PDFs, I found that it successfully finds some Assets ingested in the DMS and Symbols from a selected library. However, the Assets only show up as annotations even when verifying them. How can I get the suggested Assets to link to the Diagram in the DMS (i.e. open the diagram and see Assets directly linked to the diagram)? Thanks,Gabriel

Why are we making this change?The CDF CLI was originally designed to streamline application development on top of CDF, specifically focusing on Data Modeling workflows and the generation of type-safe SDKs.However, to ensure we are delivering the highest value to our developer ecosystem, we are refining our product strategy and priorities. The CDF CLI (beta) has not been under active development for some time, and maintaining it to our quality standards no longer aligns with our current roadmap. By discontinuing this tool, we can refocus our resources on the core tools and SDKs that best support your integration with Cognite Data Fusion.If your current CI/CD pipelines or local development environments rely on installing this package, you must take action before February 18th, 2026 to avoid build failures.Timeline of Events February 18th, 2026: The @cognite/cdf-cli package will be unpublished from NPM. You will no longer be able to install it via npm install or yarn add. What do you need

As of January 1st, 2026, the Rule-Based Coloring feature in Industrial Canvas will transition from public beta to private beta. The change will not affect existing users who have previously enabled and are using the feature on a daily basis. The feature will be unavailable for new and existing users who are not in the private beta program.No action is needed. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out.Thank you,Andreea. 

The “Ask a Question” feature inside the Canvas is very helpful—it allows users to quickly access specific documents and find information easily.However, I noticed that this feature is not available in the Industrial Tool – Search option or under the Data Management – Data Explorer tab. It would be very useful to have this functionality directly within the Data Explorer, as it would make the process more efficient and user-friendly without needing to switch to Canvas.What are your thoughts on this?Is it possible to consider adding this feature to Data Explorer in the future?

Hi Cognite Community,We will be performing scheduled upgrade today from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM CEST. Our platform will be temporarily unavailable. We appreciate your patience.

Happy Monday!We wanted to share a small feature implemented and available: clickable URLs in Search. For the URLs to become clickable, we are expecting the domain (text after the URL protocol) to match the regex /^[^\s.]+\.\S{2,}$/. Best, Sofie, Product Manager

Have you seen it? We shared in Product Updates here on Hub about improved Annotation Interactions. Let us know what you think!Best, Sofie, Product Manager

Hi Everyone,I'm part of the performance team, and I want to learn more about transformation.My main goals are:To understand the basic way it works. To see how each step interacts with different parts, so I can troubleshoot problems better. To find out what kinds of scenarios are commonly used with customers. To know which metrics we are currently monitoring in Grafana to check for issues like server errors (5xx), high CPU usage, or memory problems. To learn where I can see live logs. To understand which customer is the biggest right now and what’s the largest amount of data used for transformation so far.

Hi everyone!Are you aware that you can configure default columns per category, and what filters and properties to display per category in search? Per-project search configuration for categories became available in open beta as part of our June release! 🛠️ End-users want to see the data that's most important to them, presented in a way that makes sense instantly. While project Admins have been able to control which data they see using location filters, the ability to configure how that data appears hasn't been possible – until now. This new search configuration capability directly addresses that pain point, empowering the project Admin to curate the search experience, transforming data discovery from a "needle in a haystack" problem into an intuitive and efficient experience.How can you test it out?  Ensure you have the right access capabilities (appconfig:read, appconfig:write, app-scope = Search) for this project Admin feature!
