    @Gabby Rubin-Oracle Hi Gabby, when watching replays from latest (November) Global Analytics Leaders and Oracle Analytics Live I could not miss - when you have been talking about 2023 Feature Highlights (on slide with Oracle Analytics Cloud & Server Roadmap), that implementation of (for us) highly awaited feature - Variables/Parameters for workbooks - has been postponed from end of 2022 to H1 2023. Since we (and we, as customer, are not alone, assuming from thumbs up received for this Idea) are waiting for having it included (to be able to build BI outputs in DV with comparable complexity as in classical tools - Answers/Dashboards - unfortunately this is not possible due to current status) since mid of 2020 (when this Idea has been created), this delay are making us very sad. We were expecting to have it in next yearly release of OAS (in first Q of 2023), but it seems, that we will have to wait till OAS release in 2024....... Is there any slight chance, that this will be implemented in first release of OAC and be included in yearly OAS release for 2023 ? Our business users would be very unpleasantly surprised, as soon as we will tell them, that they will have to wait for another year (and more)......

    Thanks and kind regards

    Michal

    TBD. Yes, Parameters will not be in the January update which is the basis for OAS, however, we are still looking at ways to include it into OAS. It is not lost on us that the delay puts the OAS inclusion at risk and we do not want OAS customers to wait another year for the capability. Unless there will be an additional delay, there is a good chance that we will manage to squeeze it in.

    Note that Parameters will get more enhancements later in the year, those will still need to wait for the next OAS release.

    Hi @Gabby Rubin-Oracle,

    You mentioned in your last update, that parameters will not be in the January release of OAC. Would really appreciate it, if you could share when it is being postponed to?

    Parameters will be GA with OAC March 2023 update.

    Parameters will also be available on the annual OAS 2023 update.

    As mentioned before, parameters have been available since OAC March 2023 update.

    Indeed, Parameters have been in OAC for over a year. But be very specific about what you want to DO with parameters, as the functionality has been rolled out for about a year now. You can get a good sense of what you can do from the Oracle videos at https://www.youtube.com/%40OracleAnalytics/search?query=parameter . I filtered using keyword Parameter.

    Good luck!
