Feb 025 Qrew Meet Up Recap and March Agenda
Hi Realm Admin Qrew, Thank you to all who were able to attend Tuesday’s Realm Admin Qrew Meet Up. Here’s what we discussed: Josh Kaylor, Principal Customer Success Manager, presented the Governance Scorecard. He walked through the app that creates a report based on number of users, active/inactive apps, permission, security preferences, and more. The Qrew really enjoyed seeing the elements that make up the calculation for the scorecard, and how to take steps to update their governance strategy. Folks enjoyed seeing an app Created by Quickbase that’s being actively used with customers. With the Governance Scorecard taking license type into consideration, Josh took time to highlight key governance features that are available. This includes the Governance Core Apps, Sandbox, and a bit on the Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) tools. As a reminder from what Rayna and Ventsi shared last month for Solutions API and QBL features: Enterprise customers continue to have unlimited access to Solution APIs and QBL Business plan customers can use Solution APIs to the limit of 150 API calls per QBL version released by Quickbase Teams plan customers do not have Solution APIs availability Quickbase recommends a bi-annual of your governance Scorecard for optimal environment health. This is a free report that your account team can provide to you at any time. To get started, connect with your account customer success manager and let them know that Josh and Esther sent you! So far, I hear we had three customers reach out after our Meet Up and asked for their own Governance Scorecards after our meeting. Way to go! Missed the meeting?

Hello Realm Admin Qrew! Thank you all who were able to attend yesterday’s Realm Admin Qrew Meet Up. Here’s a recap of all we discussed: 1) Ventsi Tasev, Product Manager, did a quick Empower Pro recap of governance and ALM solutions that are coming in the roadmap. Customers wanted to know why the audit log export from the admin console only contains the numerical part of a UID. After doing some research, the numeric part can still be used to identify any unique users. Adding the alphanumerical part to the audit logs is not a simple task that can be resolved at this time, but it has been noted. 2) All user login events have the full UID in the resourceurl 3) Customers suggestions to add UserID in a formula such as UserIDtoUser() is actively being reviewed with the product team. I’m very hopeful about this! 4) Next, Robert Reeise from BCMSMN, shared this Governance Core App experience and what it he worked on with Shawn Renn, Sr. Implementation Consultant, to customize it to his needs. He needed transparency on how many open seats remained when managing users, so Shawn created a solution to auto-calculate and display it on the admin console dashboard. Were you inspired and plan to download the Governance Core Apps after hearing Robert’s use case? Reply to this email and let me know. Would love to hear your thoughts on this. 5) Missed the meeting? I got you! Here’s the recording link below. I have removed the password from zoom meeting links so you just need to click the link below.

Thank you all who were able to attend yesterday’s Realm Admin Qrew Meet Up. Here’s a recap of what happened: 1. Josh Miller, Customer Solutions Manager – Governance, gave the group a long-awaited update to the Governance Core Apps. After 25 downloads with customers, he was able to create a sweet suite of Governance Core Apps that will give every Realm Admin a front seat to manage their apps, users, usage, and more. 2. Customers were given a very brief overview of the topic of governance and showcase the updates that were made. He mentioned that it would take about one hour to download then prop up the first iteration of the app. 3. People loved seeing how Josh used code pages to create a guided experience when downloading and implementing the governance apps. 4. A couple of customers wanted to see Replication IDs added to the fields that can be pulled in for the ACC table. Thanks to Dwight Munson for adding it to the feedback tab.
