IMPROVED STUDIO Validation error improvements when changing Data Model
We've added additional context to help you resolve validation errors when changing the Data Model used by a Knowledge Model.
Validation checks are run to ensure the Knowledge Model will still work correctly with the new Data Model.
Previously, if the validation checks failed, a single, generic error message displayed and the Data Model change was automatically blocked.
Now, more detailed error messages display in a scrollable list, allowing you to review and resolve the generated validation errors. You can also change the Data Model even where validation errors occur, allowing you to fix the errors later on.

May 13, 2026
IMPROVED AUTOMATION Changes to Data Model Triggers
To better control your automations, you can now define a limit on how many items a Data Model Trigger can handle. Whenever that limit is reached, depending on your settings, new items discovered in the Data Model are either ignored or they replace the low-priority items.
For more information, see Creating Triggers using Data Model.

May 12, 2026
IMPROVED STUDIO Changes to the Knowledge sidebar in the PQL editor
We've made some changes to the Knowledge sidebar in the PQL editor to make it easier to work with the aggregation selector. We've also changed the edit button location for filters and variables in the PQL editor Knowledge sidebar to improve alignment with other entities.
Row-click action removed
Previously, clicking anywhere in an entity row in the Knowledge sidebar automatically added the entity's PQL expression to the currently-selected table column:
![]() |
Now, you use the new insert button to add the PQL expression to a table column:
![]() |
Metadata popover action changed
Previously, you accessed metadata popovers for an entity by clicking the info button:
![]() |
Metadata popovers now appear automatically when you hover over an entity:
![]() |
Edit buttons relocated for filters and variables
Previously, you edited filters and variables in the Knowledge sidebar using an inline edit button. This button has been removed and an edit button added instead to the metadata popover.
![]() |
All other functionality and logic are unchanged.
For more information about the PQL editor, see PQL editor.
May 11, 2026
PUBLIC PREVIEW STUDIO Process Explorer enhancements
We’ve made the following usability improvements to the Process Explorer component in Studio:
We’ve removed the limitation on how many events are displayed in Process Explorer. The list of events now displays all available events, with the most relevant 5000 events displayed first.
You can use the search bar to find any events in your event logs.
Events on the list that are not visible in the Process Explorer graph are now marked with a filter icon.

For more information, see Show / Hide events in PE.

PRIVATE PREVIEW DATA INTEGRATION Share Celonis data externally via Delta Sharing
You can now securely and efficiently share process intelligence data from your Celonis Data Pools with external platforms in your data ecosystem using Outbound Data Sharing. This connection leverages the Delta Sharing open standard to transform Celonis into your organization’s central Intelligence Layer, providing third-party tools like Databricks with seamless access to process-contextualized data.
Optimized for the Object-Centric Process Mining (OCPM) framework, Outbound Data Sharing allows you to export your Object and Event tables to maintain semantic integrity across your entire data stack. By sharing these business-ready outputs, you can now power cross-platform use cases and advanced analytics. This ensures your process context remains consistent and actionable outside of the Celonis environment.
For more information, see Outbound Data Sharing.
To learn more about our private preview release, see: Feature release types.
May 6, 2026
PRIVATE PREVIEW PLATFORM New Celonis Assistant available in Private Preview
The Celonis Assistant is an AI support assistant that offers a conversational chat interface to help configure your Celonis implementation in real-time. It is context-aware and has access to public documentation of the platform and latest product guidance. This assistant can provide suggestions on which Celonis products to use, suggest use cases and KPIs to analyze within your data, provide implementation guidance, and more.
As you begin your Celonis implementation, the Celonis Assistant offers guidance on how to get started, provides best practices for your configuration, and helps to troubleshoot any errors. As you prioritize which use cases you want to improve, the Celonis Assistant can identify prebuilt solutions that meet your needs or guide you as you build custom solutions on the Celonis Platform.
To use the Celonis Assistant, you will need to enable AI Settings and Azure OpenAI models for your team. The Celonis Assistant can then be accessed from the main Celonis menu by clicking the “Celonis Assistant” option.

For more information, see Celonis Assistant.
And to read more about our private preview releases, see Feature release types.
IMPROVED OBJECTS AND EVENTS Objects and events assets added to team-to-team copy
You can now copy your object-centric process mining (OCPM) data models (OCDM) and data pools between Celonis Platform teams using the Team-to-team copy feature. This feature also team admins to select the team to copy assets into (known as the target team), check and resolve asset dependencies, and run the copy.
When copying Objects and Events assets, the following applies:
Object-centric process mining (OCPM) data pools are always copied together with their OCDM configuration; copying OCDM alone is not supported.
The OCDM version deployed to production in the source data pool is copied. Individual OCDM assets (objects or events) cannot be copied.
A successful team-to-team copy creates a new OCDM version in the target team, but it is not automatically deployed.
Data pools can be copied to an existing or new data pool in the target team. Once established, this mapping is permanent.
When copying to an existing target data pool, the OCDM version history is reset to 0.0.1 on the first copy.
For more information about the team-to-team copy feature, see: Team-to-team copy.
May 4, 2026
NEW STUDIO Consistent event log colors across all Process Mining components
We've made some changes so event log colors are now consistent across all Process Mining components and assets.
When a color is assigned to an event log in the Event Log Builder or visual editor, that color is now be used for that event log in all your Process Mining components, such as Process Explorer, Variant Explorer, Process Adherence Manager (PAM), Event Explorer, Case Explorer and Throughput Time (TPT) Explorer, as well as in any associated process filters.
If the assigned color is changed in the Event Log Builder or visual editor, the event log color will update automatically across all components.
We've also refreshed the color palette used for event logs so it's easier to distinguish between the colors available, while also improving the accessibility of colors used in Process Mining components.
April 30, 2026
PRIVATE PREVIEW STUDIO Annotation Builder supports direct writebacks to the Process Intelligence Graph
Annotation Builder support for direct writebacks to the Process Intelligence Graph (PI Graph) is now available in Private Preview. Using this feature, you can write AI-generated annotations, such as risk scores, categorizations, and extracted entities, directly into your Object-Centric Process Mining (OCPM) data models as first-class attributes. Previously, enriching data with AI outputs at scale required manual workarounds or was constrained by the 200,000-row limit of Augmented Attributes. With this release, we have built an enterprise-grade pipeline that handles high-volume data enrichment automatically.
By persisting Annotation Builder results natively in the data model, your AI-enriched data is instantly reusable across multiple workspaces, downstream applications, AI Agents, and Action Flows. This eliminates complex data integration bottlenecks and ensures a single source of truth for your AI-generated insights.
This feature also includes:
Direct OCPM Integration ("PIG Mode"): Exclusively available for Object-Centric data models, this feature allows you to map large language model (LLM) outputs directly to existing PI Graph objects.
Enterprise-Scale Upserts: Built to handle massive datasets, the system securely batches and pushes large volumes of annotation data into dedicated, managed Data Pool tables (e.g.,
ai_annotations_<source>_<output>).Automated End-to-End Pipeline: Following a successful LLM run, the system automatically updates the entity's SQL factory, creates a new package version, and triggers an OCPM data job to reload the model with your new annotations. No manual data engineering required.
To use this feature, you must have Data Integration permissions. Then when configuring a new Annotation Builder model, you will need to select your target OCPM entity in the setup wizard to enable native PI Graph writebacks.
For more information, see PI Graph Writebacks.
To read more about our private preview releases, see Feature release types.
IMPROVED STUDIO Smart inputs extended to Knowledge Model metadata
You can now use smart inputs in View modules to retrieve Knowledge Model metadata.
With this additional functionality, you can now write the metadata for any KPI attribute to the View module variable mapping. This lets you use KPI information directly from the Knowledge Model instead of hard coding inputs.
For more information, see the Object variable use case example.
REMOVED BUSINESS MINER Business Miner service removed
Our Business Miner service has been removed from the platform and has already been replaced by our AI-driven Insight Explorer and Studio features.
With these advanced capabilities, you’ll benefit from:
Enhanced intelligence: Advanced AI integration and deeper customization options.
No additional cost: These features are already included in your Celonis Platform offering and can be used today at no extra cost.
Easy transition: With our Celonis Academy course, you can efficiently transition away from Business Miner.
To learn more about Insight Explorer, see: Insight Explorer
April 29, 2026
IMPROVED PROCESS ADHERENCE MANAGER Filtering root causes in Adherence Explorer

![]() |
To learn more about Adherence Explorer, see: Adherence Explorer.
April 28, 2026
IMPROVED STUDIO 'Copy to' alignment for packages and assets
We've redesigned the Copy to modal for packages so it aligns with the Copy to modal for Studio assets, giving you a more consistent and intuitive experience.


We've also added 'lazy loading' where checks for unversioned changes are now made only after a package has been selected. This reduces loading times, improving system performance.
To learn more about creating and managing Studio packages and assets, see: Packages
NEW TASK MINING Task Mining Client software version 2.21.1
We've released a new version of the Task Mining Client software. This version includes enhanced internal message handling. We've also removed legacy, unused decryption paths related to protected Windows data. There are no changes to your sign-in process or how your data is protected.
For more information, see the Task Mining install file release notes.
April 27, 2026
NEW STUDIO Performance Spectrum component added to Views
You can now add and configure a Performance Spectrum component for your Studio Views.
Previously available as a public preview, the Performance Spectrum adds a time-based perspective to your Views, revealing how tasks interact and evolve. It highlights variations, bottlenecks, and performance shifts that are often hidden in aggregations, giving you clearer insights into how your processes truly run.
In this example, the Performance Spectrum helps a government agency to visualize how individual fines move through a defined sequence over time. This helps them to identify bottlenecks and validate that specific process patterns (like batching) are adhered to and stay consistent over time (e.g. throughout the year).
![]() |
To learn more about the Performance Spectrum, see: Performance Spectrum.
NEW STUDIO Object-centric Instance Explorer component added to Studio Views
You can now configure an Instance Explorer component for your object-centric data in your Studio Views. The component, previously in public preview, lets you explore individual object instances, like Orders, Invoices, or Flights, and their events within the digital twin. You can see each object’s lifecycle and relationships without creating custom queries or tables.
The key features include:
Search by ID: Inspect objects by their unique identifiers and view their full lifecycle and relationships.
Investigate case behavior: See object relationships and event sequences to understand current states.
Verify data representation: Check how source system data is represented and share with stakeholders.
The Instance Explorer component can be viewed using a graph or list view, with an example of the graph view displayed here:

To learn more about configuring and using the Instance Explorer component, see: Instance Explorer.
April 23, 2026
PRIVATE PREVIEW STUDIO Message display added to View button components
With this private preview release, you can now configure button components in Views to display a message when a user clicks a button.
You can add standard text formatting and URLs to the message text. The message text is accessible for screen readers and can be copied and pasted by the user.
In this example, a message has been added to the Read this button:
![]() |
When the user clicks the Read this button, the message displays in the View:
![]() |
For more information about buttons in Views, see Buttons.
And to read more about our private preview releases, see Feature release types.
April 22, 2026
PUBLIC PREVIEW STUDIO User language preferences added for Analysis to Views migrations
We've extended Data Model name mapping to Knowledge Models so user language preferences are automatically applied in Views, for example when migrating Analyses to Views.
Previously, when an Analysis was migrated to a View, translations based on user language preferences were not available. This led to a poor user experience as the table and column names displayed in the View were potentially different from those in the original Analysis.
By extending support for name mapping, table and column names now automatically display in the default language selected by the user in the Studio package settings. This applies to all Views, including Views that were migrated from Analyses.
For more information, see Migrating translations from an Analysis to a View and Managing package settings.
And to read more about our public preview releases, see Feature release types.
NEW PQL New PQL aggregation functions for distinct string concatenation
PQL now supports two new functions for concatenating unique string values into a single result: STRING_AGG DISTINCT and PU_STRING_AGG_DISTINCT. These functions allow you to summarize multiple string entries into a single list of unique values.
STRING_AGG DISTINCT: Acts as a standard aggregation, returning the unique values from a source column within a specific group.PU_STRING_AGG_DISTINCT: Acts as a pull-up aggregation, allowing you to pull concatenated unique values from a source table up to a target table. This is ideal for creating per-case or per-object summaries of unique activities.
Both functions support an optional ORDER BY clause to control the sequence of the concatenated results. Additionally, PU_STRING_AGG_DISTINCT supports an optional filter expression to refine which source rows are included in the aggregation.
For more information, see the STRING_AGG DISTINCT and PU_STRING_AGG_DISTINCT documentation.
NEW PQL New PQL WITH clause for organized and reusable query logic
PQL now supports the WITH clause, enabling you to define temporary table aliases and named expressions directly within queries. This allows you to encapsulate complex logic into reusable blocks, significantly improving the structure and maintainability of sophisticated PQL statements.
To provide flexibility in how you define your logic, the WITH clause supports two distinct declaration methods:
REGISTER: Creates a temporary alias for a table or assigns a named PQL variable (prefixed with@) to a specific column expression or condition.EXTEND: Dynamically attaches a computed column to an existing table for the duration of the expression, allowing you to treat derived logic as a native part of the table schema.
For example:
WITH [ REGISTER "EventLog" AS CREATE_EVENTLOG ( "ObjectTable" ), EXTEND "EventLog" WITH "CustomAttribute" AS "EventLog"."Attribute" + 1 ] ( "Eventlog"."CustomAttribute" + 2 )
The declared names are strictly local to the immediate expression. They are not visible outside of it, and the same identifier can be redeclared with a different meaning in a separate expression without conflict.
For more information, see the WITH clause documentation.
April 21, 2026
PRIVATE PREVIEW DATA INTEGRATION OIDC authentication for Delta Sharing is now supported
Delta Sharing connections now support OIDC (OpenID Connect) Federation authentication. This allows you to connect your Celonis Platform pools to external Databricks shares without the need for static, long-lived bearer token files. This makes your Delta Sharing connections more secure and easier to manage.
For more information, see Delta Sharing.
April 13, 2026
IMPROVED OBJECTS AND EVENTS Process Explorer preview added to Event Log builder
We've added a Process Explorer preview to the Event Log builder. This allows you to visualize your process model in real-time during configuration, ensuring accuracy between the data model and the intended process flow. The preview includes auto-refresh capabilities and supports the visualization of dynamic events.
Previously, you had to save the Event Log and navigate to a separate View to verify your process flow. Now, you can spot mapping errors, like inverted timestamps or incorrect activity naming, instantly without leaving the builder.
To learn more about creating and configuring event logs, see: Event logs (object-centric).

NEW STUDIO New MCP tools to interact with Orchestration Engine processes
The Agent Tools (MCP) asset is being upgraded with new tools that allow AI agents to interact with a process running in Orchestration Engine. These new tools are available in Studio and can be configured as part of your Process Copilots. These tools are configured for Process Copilots using the Tool Activation feature and can be either manually fixed by users or defined by the Agents at runtime.
![]() |
These new tools include:
execute_orchestration_engine - Sends a signal to trigger a new Orchestration Engine process instance.
get_orchestration_engine_process_contexts - Fetches process contexts for all Orchestration Engine instances. If no arguments are provided, will return all process contexts.
resume_orchestration_engine_execution - Resumes the execution of an Orchestration Engine process instance.
For more information, see Tool Activation.
April 8, 2026
NEW ADMIN AND SETTINGS Authorization Code Flow as new OAuth 2.0 grant type
We're adding Authorization Code as a new OAuth 2.0 grant type you can select when registering a new OAuth 2.0 clients in Celonis Platform. Authorization Code is a secure, server-side process for applications to obtain access tokens to authorized user data without exposing credentials.
For more information, see Registering your OAuth client in the Celonis Platform.
IMPROVED STUDIO Two-way binding added for enhanced variables in Views
We've changed how enhanced variables in View input dropdowns update to better reflect behavior expected by users.
Enhanced variables in View input components let you centrally create and manage information that is referenced and reused across Studio components and assets.
Previously, an input dropdown using enhanced variables always displayed the last value selected, even if the value of the enhanced variable had been changed elsewhere in the app. This could lead to mismatches between the enhanced variable value displayed in the input dropdown and the actual value of the enhanced variable.
With this change, the input dropdown will now always display the current enhanced variable value. If the current enhanced variable value is not available as an option in the input dropdown, an information message will display in both the app and in Studio, indicating that the enhanced variable value has been inherited from elsewhere.
For more information about enhanced variables, see Using enhanced variables in Studio components.
NEW STUDIO Visual mapping rules added for KPI card and Attribute list
We've extended visual mapping rules for colors and icons to the KPI card and Attribute list components in Views.
Previously, changing the colors used and creating and using visual icons wasn't supported for these components.
Extending this functionality to these components gives added flexibility around their use while providing a more consistent visual experience across Views.
In this example, a Primary Scale visual mapping has been selected for a KPI card and an up chevron icon added to the left of the KPI value.

For more information, see Managing Studio and component color themes and Icon mapping.
NEW PROCESS ADHERENCE MANAGER New mining algorithm
Users can now choose between using the strict or balanced model miner when mining a model. Both miner types analyze the process graph that is created from an event log and try to match the patterns of events within the process graph. They use different approaches where patterns of events can’t be matched. The strict miner takes into account every single variant in a model. In contrast, the balanced miner optimizes models for fitness, which can help when mining a model with many variants.

For more information, see Model miner types.
NEW PROCESS ADHERENCE MANAGER Adherence Explorer
The Adherence Explorer is the new analysis experience for PAM. It's a Studio View component that enables users to analyze deviations in the context of a broader analysis (such as building a dashboard with the conformance rate of a model). It seamlessly interacts with other View components, including charts, tables and Process Explorer.
![]() |
For more information, see Adherence Explorer.
PRIVATE PREVIEW STUDIO Control analyst access to Annotation Builder and Process Copilot assets
With this private preview release, admin users can now control which analysts can access and view and edit Annotation Builder and Process Copilot assets, adding an additional level of protection against unintended or negative consequences related to their use.
For more information, see Control analyst access to Annotation Builder assets and Control analyst access to Process Copilot assets.
And to learn more about our private and public preview releases, see Feature release types.
April 7, 2026
NEW DATA INTEGRATION Java requirement for on-prem JDBC
Starting April 2026, upgrading to the latest on-prem JDBC JAR will require Java 25. This is not a breaking change, as customers who do not update their extractor to the latest JDBC version will not be affected. We will update this page with the exact release version once it is finalized. No immediate action is required, but upgrades should be planned in advance.
To learn more about the on-prem JDBC extractor, see: JDBC Extractor.
March 31, 2026
IMPROVED PROCESS ADHERENCE MANAGER BPMN automatic repair
When importing a BPMN model into Process Adherence Manager, PAM now also detects if a model has multiple start events, multiple end events or multiple incoming/outgoing edges, and repairs these automatically.
For more information, see Automatic repair.
March 30, 2026
NEW TRANSFORMATION HUB Transformation Hub in Views app
The Transformation Hub in Views is a next-generation Business App designed to centralize how you track and report value across your Celonis initiatives. Built on a robust data model powered by KPI Snapshots, it offers a flexible environment to move from high-level summaries to granular details.
Key capabilities include:
Comprehensive Value Tracking: Monitor Action-based, Rate-based, and Non-monetary opportunities in a single location.
Realized Value Trends: Visualize how value is realized over time to demonstrate the continuous impact of your transformation efforts.
Multi-Dimensional Analysis: Break down value by specific dimensions such as country, region, plant, or material to identify where your initiatives are most successful.
For more information, see: Transformation Hub in Views.
![]() |
NEW STUDIO Create and track KPI Snapshots from your Knowledge Model
You can now create and track KPI Snapshots from your Knowledge Model. KPI Snapshots allow users to capture KPI values at scheduled intervals, creating a record of KPI performance at any given point in time. Instead of recalculating KPIs dynamically against live data, KPI Snapshots store the calculated KPI results as historical data, enabling reliable trend analysis over time.
For example, if teams update payment terms to improve results, historical KPIs might look better than they actually were. KPI Snapshots preserve the true historical view, letting you compare performance before and after changes and measure the impact of initiatives over time.
The benefits of using KPI Snapshots include:
Tracking historical performance: Keep a true record of KPI values, even if underlying data changes later.
Comparing before and after: Measure the impact of improvements or corrective actions.
Monitoring initiatives over time: See how KPIs evolve and track progress across teams.
Combining enterprise-wide views: Combine snapshots from multiple data pools and models to get a single, unified view.
Consistent reporting: Build dashboards and reports that reflect both historical and current performance in one place.
To learn more about creating and tracking KPI Snapshots, see: KPI Snapshots.
March 26, 2026
IMPROVED ADMIN AND SETTINGS Granular AI consumption limits and tracking
Managing a centralized pool of AI credits across multiple departments has historically been a challenge for Celonis administrators. Without the ability to subdivide global AI outputs, organizations faced risks of runaway consumption by a single use case, making internal capacity planning and budget forecasting difficult.
With this release, we have overhauled the AI Settings console to provide administrators with precise, proactive control over AI Output consumption. These enhancements ensure you can scale AI initiatives securely and predictably across your entire organization.
This release includes:
Accurate global thresholds: The AI Settings dashboard now accurately reflects your true, up-to-date AI Output limits at the company level (e.g., 10,241 / 100,000 AI outputs/year), allowing for reliable monitoring and budget planning.
Asset-level consumption limits: You can now subdivide your global AI credits by setting hard numerical caps on individual Studio assets. Admins can simply click into any AI asset (like a specific Annotation Builder model or Copilot) and apply a custom consumption limit.
Built-in safety mechanisms: By capping individual assets, you prevent end-users from accidentally exhausting the company’s entire AI quota on a single run. Once an asset hits its assigned limit, execution is paused and a warning is triggered, keeping your overall budget safe.
To manage your AI settings, see: AI Settings
PRIVATE PREVIEW STUDIO New temporary filters for Insight Explorer
Your filtering capabilities in Insight Explorer are getting an upgrade with temporary filters that allow you to perform a more in-depth analysis by applying a filter based on a specific insight. These temporary filters also allow for the use of your own custom attributes. Using these temporary filters, you can go deeper into a group of object instances within a particular insight and then generate additional insights based on that group. This provides the ability to drill down further on any of the insights generated by your Insight Explorer.
These filters can be applied by hovering on the filter for an insight and then clicking the filter icon on the right side. Clicking the Apply Filter button will create a filter based on the case cohort for this specific insight. This temporary filter can be removed at any time by clicking the filter icon again and clicking the Remove Filter button.
To learn more about Insight Explorer, see: Creating an Insight Explorer
And to read more about our private preview releases, see: Feature release types.
March 20, 2026
PRIVATE PREVIEW STUDIO Process inefficiency attributes for Insight Explorer
Insight Explorer is being upgraded with a new option for the process attributes setting that utilizes an AI agent to discover process inefficiencies that may impact the behavior of your KPIs. Identifying these inefficiencies will improve both the causality and quality of the insights being generated while also allowing for more complex process patterns in your insights, such as activity sequences or ping pong behaviors. Those process inefficiency attributes replace the basic process attributes.
To activate the process inefficiency attributes agent in your Insight Explorer, click the Advanced Settings button in the upper right corner. In the Advanced settings window, select the “Enhance with AI-detected inefficiencies” option under “Attribute recommendations” and then click the Update button.
![]() |
Once this Insight Explorer is configured and deployed, the process inefficiencies will be generated and displayed alongside your standard attribute recommendations.
For more information, see Configuring an Insight Explorer.
NEW STUDIO Structured Output from Process Copilots
Process Copilots can now generate structured responses by utilizing a fixed JSON schema that can be customized in the AI Instructions of your Process Copilot configuration. Generating structured responses instead of the text strings provides a more predictable and repeatable output for your integrations with Action Flows, Orchestration Engine, or external APIs. Using this new configuration, you can develop a schema that maps specific fields directly to your Action Flow, Orchestration Engine, or external system without manual parsing. These structured responses prevent the need for manually coding JSON responses while also avoiding the potential processing errors caused by the string responses in your downstream analytics.
Note
All Process Copilot instances will respect the assigned schema regardless of whether the calls are made using ChatAPI, an Action Flow or Orchestration Engine.
![]() |
These new schemas are created on the AI Instructions section of your Process Copilot configuration by enabling the Structured data output toggle. You can then manually enter your schema or click the icon in the right corner to ask the AI assistant to generate the schema Schema based on your description. Once you have finished configuring this Process Copilot, you can test the schema and verify how your responses are displayed using the Integrations tab.
![]() |
For more information, see AI Instructions.
NEW AUTOMATION Cloud functions in Orchestration Engine
You can now define and execute authenticated API calls to external web services directly within your Process Orchestration steps.

This new capability allows you to collect relevant data from external services and seamlessly inject it back into your orchestration workflow, making your automated processes more flexible and integrated with systems outside of Celonis.
For more information, see Adding cloud functions to Process Orchestration steps.
NEW AUTOMATION Process Copilot in Orchestration Engine steps
You can now use Process Copilot capabilities directly in your Process Orchestration steps, bringing conversation AI into your automated end-to-end workflows.

This integration allows you to use Process Copilot's ability to converse with your Celonis data within any orchestration step. You can analyze data by asking natural language questions, build graphs, search for insights, or view process flows, making your automated business processes more dynamic and data-driven.
For more information, see Adding Process Copilot to Process Orchestration steps.
IMPROVED AUTOMATION Updates to the Send emails action
We have enhanced the Send Email action in Views. In addition to using your personal email address, you can now send messages using the Celonis service address (noreply@celonismail.com).
For more information, see Adding Actions to Studio components.
IMPROVED STUDIO View edit mode performance improvements
We've made some performance improvements in Views. The content in your View will no longer reload when you enter and exit View edit mode, giving you a more seamless user experience.
Note
As we'll be rolling this improvement out over the next few weeks to different groups of users, you may not experience this improvement immediately.
March 19, 2026
NEW DATA INTEGRATION Filtering methods added for Extractor Builder endpoints
In the Extractor Builder, you can now use the new Filtering Method configuration to define specific filter rules for endpoints, similar to the existing pagination setup. By selecting specific methods based on your source API, you now have more granular control over your data queries, such as using individual query parameters for standard requests or the request body for POST endpoints.
Note
To ensure continuity, existing endpoints have been automatically assigned a Legacy Filtering setting, allowing current extractions to remain functional without modification. All new endpoints will default to No Filtering; however, we recommend configuring an explicit filtering method for each endpoint to allow for efficient delta loads.
For more information on configuring filtering methods for endpoints, see Configuring endpoints.
PUBLIC PREVIEW STUDIO Knowledge Model asset editor usability improvements
Important
Only eligible customers can access this functionality while it is in Public Preview. If you're an eligible customer and don't want to use this functionality during this Public Preview period, please create a Support ticket at Celonis Support.
With this Public Preview release, we've made some changes to how you interact with Knowledge Models, making them easier and more intuitive to use.
We’ve updated the Knowledge Model asset editor. By replacing the current left-hand vertical navigation with a new horizontal tabbed navigation, we've improved screen real estate use.
![]() |
Within the Knowledge Model asset editor, you can also now show/hide table columns including short display name, internal note, unit and format. We've also introduced advanced filtering at column level:
![]() |

And for more information about our public preview releases, see Feature release types.
March 17, 2026
IMPROVED STUDIO New event count metrics in the Multi-Object Process Explorer
The metrics available for the Multi-Object Process Explorer are being expanded with the new Event Count tab which allows you to see how often an event occurs for a specific object. This new tab is available by clicking on any event in your Process Explorer graph to view the event node details.

This tab includes an expandable section for each object and includes the count metrics for this event, including the average number of times it occurs, the maximum number of times it occurred, and the total number of occurrences for this object. Each section also includes a graph showing the frequency with which every number of occurrences happens for this object, such as how often this event occurred four times or how often it occurred twice. This information is similar to the metrics shown on the “Event count” tab in the Event Explorer metrics.
Along with this change, the average times per object metric is being removed from the Occurrence tab in the node details.
For more information, see Event node details.
NEW STUDIO Updated testing features for Process Copilots
Process Copilots are being updated to include a new option that allows you to switch between sources (External API and Celonis Asset) in order to test both the internal and external integrations of your Process Copilots from the chat interface. This update is designed to give you full control over how you test and validate your Process Copilots during the development process and allows you to simulate different execution surfaces in order to ensure that your configuration delivers accurate reasoning.

REMOVED STUDIO Status badge removed for packages and assets
As part our recent updates to versioning and deploying packages, we added a badge to the user interface which displayed the version and deployment status of packages and other Studio assets. We've now discovered an issue with this status badge so have removed it, meaning the status badge will no longer display.
For more information about versioning and deploying assets, see Versioning and deploying packages.
March 12, 2026
IMPROVED OBJECTS AND EVENTS Objects and Events filter added to the event log builder
We've added an object and event filters in the event log builder. These filters allow you to select specific events or objects to include or exclude in your event log. By reducing the amount of data materialized in the log, this results in faster performance and more efficient analysis of process mining data.
This improvement is especially useful for large datasets, where unnecessary events or objects can slow down analysis. You now have more control over the granularity of the data included in your logs, enabling cleaner and more focused insights.
To learn more about creating event logs in the Knowledge Model, see: Event logs (object-centric).

March 10, 2026
IMPROVED STUDIO Apply and cancel actions aligned across all filters
We've made some changes to improve the consistency of filters across Views in the Celonis Platform.
Previously, some Views filters were applied and saved automatically as soon as values were selected, with the filtered output updated each time an individual value was selected or removed. For other Views filters, the filter was applied and saved only when confirmed via an Apply button.
We've now aligned all Views filters so filters are only applied and saved when the Apply button is selected. A Cancel button also allows the filter selection to be easily discarded.
For more information about Studio filters, see Filtering Studio Views.
IMPROVED MACHINE LEARNING PyCelonis MLWB write directly to the data model with augmented attributes
We have expanded the PyCelonis DataModel with a dedicated Augmentation API. You can now programmatically manage the entire lifecycle of an augmented attribute directly from your Jupyter notebooks:
create_augmentation_table(): Provision a new augmented table on the fly by declaring column names, data types, and the foreign key join definition mapping it to your base Data Model table.upsert(df): Easily update existing records or insert new ones (Upsert) based on a primary key—perfect for updating live machine learning predictions as new data arrives.remove(df, key): Programmatically delete specific rows from your augmentation table.augmentation_table.delete():Programmatically delete your augmentation table entirely.
Previously, injecting machine learning predictions or custom Python calculations back into the data model required routing the data through a complete data integration pipeline and triggering a data load. With this release, you can now close the loop, writing results straight from a Pandas DataFrame in MLWB into your operational data model in real-time.
Ensure your PyCelonis library is updated to the latest version to access the new Augmentation API. For detailed code examples and syntax, please refer to the PyCelonis documentation and the Augmented Attributes user guide.

NEW DATA INTEGRATION Celonis Compute Units tracking added to data pool overview
You can now track your team's Celonis Compute Units (CCUs) usage from your data pool overview screen. Celonis Compute Units are a standardized metric used to quantify the compute capacity required on the Celonis Platform when using the new ETL Engine.
When monitoring and tracking your CCU usage, the following details apply:
Monthly reset: Your allocation resets automatically at the start of each billing month.
No rollover: Unused units expire at the end of each month and do not carry over.
If the monthly CCU entitlement is exceeded: All data processing activities, including data extractions, transformations, and model loads, execute on a best-effort basis. This means ETL tasks may experience reduced priority and slower completion times until the automatic monthly CCU reset.
To learn how to track your CCU usage, see: Tracking CCU usage.
And to learn more about these metrics, see our terms and conditions: Celonis - Terms and Conditions - Services.
PUBLIC PREVIEW STUDIO Object-centric Instance Explorer component added to Studio Views
With this public preview release, you can now configure an Instance Explorer component for your object-centric data in your Studio Views. The component lets you explore individual object instances, like Orders, Invoices, or Flights, and their events within the digital twin. You can see each object’s lifecycle and relationships without creating custom queries or tables.
The key features include:
Search by ID: Inspect objects by their unique identifiers and view their full lifecycle and relationships.
Investigate case behavior: See object relationships and event sequences to understand current states.
Verify data representation: Check how source system data is represented and share with stakeholders.
The Instance Explorer component can be viewed using a graph or list view, with an example of the graph view displayed here:

March 2, 2026
NEW STUDIO Dimension switching in charts
Dimension switching enables faster, more flexible self-service analysis, allowing users to explore multiple data perspectives within a single chart for quicker insights and a better experience.
Users can now dynamically adjust the data in bar, column, line, and area charts by enabling dimension switching.
Previously, users couldn't easily switch between visualizing data on a weekly and a monthly basis.
With dimension switching, users can now change the data perspective displayed using a simple dropdown in the chart.
In this example, the user can select whether to display the Sum data by Ship Mode, State or City.
![]() |
To find out more, see Switching dimensions in charts.
NEW STUDIO Full Analysis to Studio View migration available
You can now migrate your full Analysis assets and settings to Studio Views with the migration wizard, enabling you to create dashboards and reports using our enhanced View editing experience.
While Celonis continues to maintain Analysis (by fixing bugs and ensuring performance remains strong), no further feature development will take place. We therefore recommend you migrate your Analysis assets to Studio Views.
![]() |
For more information, see Full analysis to Views migration.
IMPROVED PROCESS ADHERENCE MANAGER BPMN automatic repair
When importing a BPMN model into Process Adherence Manager, PAM now also detects if a model has multiple start events, multiple end events or multiple incoming/outgoing edges, and repairs these automatically.
For more information, see Automatic repair.
IMPROVED STUDIO Migrating translations from an Analysis to a View
You can now import translations from a Data Model to a Studio package.
Translations in an Analysis use Data Model name mappings. In Views, translations are saved in the package settings. To migrate translations, the name mappings can now be imported to the package settings.
When migrating an Analysis to a View, the translation syntax is automatically updated during the migration and uses the translation keys from the package, with no changes required in the Analysis or View. Users can then select their preferred language from the View Translations menu.
For more information about migrating Analyses, see Migrating Analysis to Views and for information specific to this functionality, see Migrating translations from an Analysis to a View.

IMPROVED STUDIO New object-centric performance metrics in the Multi-Object Process Explorer
The new Synchronization tab introduces object-centric performance metrics in the Multi-Object Process Explorer component, which allow you to view the range of event lead times, execution times, and synchronization times for all objects in a process. These new metrics include:
Event Lead Time: The total duration from when the earliest input object becomes available to the completion of that specific event. Event Lead Time can be thought of as the total amount of time needed for the preparation and execution of all steps in the process.
Synchronization (Sync) Time: The time between when the first and last input objects arrive at a shared event. Sync Time captures the delay caused by waiting for all involved objects to be ready.
Execution Time: Amount of time from when all input objects are available to when execution is complete. During this period, all objects are ready and nothing is blocked on the data side, but no action occurs.

These metrics are computed for all shared events in the process and can be viewed on the Synchronization tab by clicking the event node in the process graph. The Synchronization tab shows the range of times for each metric and how frequently each time value occurred across the events in this process. In addition, these metrics also provide the average, median and trimmed median values.
These metrics are available out-of-the-box and can help to identify critical bottlenecks in your processes such as:
How long does it take events with multiple objects/shared events/events requiring multiple inputs to complete? (Event Lead Time)
How much time is spent waiting for all inputs to arrive? (Sync Time)
How long does a process idle once all inputs are ready? (Execution Time)
For more information, see Event node details.
February 26, 2026
IMPROVED STUDIO Reusing View modules across packages
You can now use View modules across different Studio packages.
Previously, you could only reuse modules within your own package. This new functionality gives increased flexibility by allowing View module reuse across packages. Published changes to the reused View Module can be updated as required.
For more information, see Reusing View modules across packages.
February 25, 2026
IMPROVED OBJECTS AND EVENTS Creating events from tables
Data engineers and analysts can now create event types directly from raw source data. This enhancement streamlines event modeling by automatically generating the SQL transformations that map event types and relationships to the data. It also enables bulk event creation and configuring event-to-object relationships.
Using the import wizard, an event will follow the raw data if it fits one of the three supported structures:
A column(s) of the table represent an event(s)
A row in the table represents an event (as an event log)
A row in the table represents an event (change table with old value / new value)
To learn more about creating events from tables, see: Events.

February 24, 2026
IMPROVED AUTOMATION Updates to Task Types
You can now easily copy Task Types across your Celonis Platform instance to a different team, space, and package. See Copying Tasks Types.

We’ve added a Task Type Status column to the Task Management screen to help you monitor the health of your Tasks. The column displays the current status and flags errors in two categories: errors (critical errors) and warnings (operational issues). For more information, see Troubleshooting Task Types.
NEW AUTOMATION STUDIO Call Process Copilots from your Action Flow modules
Action Flows are being upgraded with a new module that can be used to trigger your existing Process Copilots. This new “Call Process Copilot” module is used to create custom messages that are passed in real-time to your Process Copilot assets. Adding this module removes the need to create workaround solutions using custom code in order to connect your Action Flows to your Process Copilots.
The module can be configured by selecting your connection and the Process Copilot you want to connect to from this Action Flow. You can then create the custom message you want to send using both plain text and Action Flow variables. When the Action Flow is executed, the responses from the Process Copilot are displayed automatically and include the response, the reasoning, and the conversation ID. These calls can also be tracked on the Process Copilot Monitoring screen.

For more information, see Call from Action Flows.
IMPROVED OBJECTS AND EVENTS Attribute sorting added to objects and events
You can now manually control the display order of attributes for your objects and events, which were previously ordered alphabetically. After updating the attribute order and deploying your changes to development or production, the new order will be reflected in both your transformation jobs and the Knowledge Model.
While attribute ordering doesn't impact processing logic, it improves readability, usability, and governance by allowing you to present your data in a logical and consistent structure.

To learn more about creating and managing objects and events, see: Objects.
February 23, 2026
NEW STUDIO Switching annotation lines between primary and secondary chart axes
You can use annotation lines in charts to indicate thresholds and targets. Annotation lines are displayed by default for the primary axis of your chart. If your chart has both primary and secondary axes, you can now toggle annotation lines between these axes using the Annotation line settings panel:

The annotation lines will track correctly against the scales used for each axis, ensuring they are always contextually accurate.
For more information, see Chart annotation lines.
NEW TASK MINING Task Mining Client software version 2.21.0
We've released a new version of the Task Mining Client software. This version includes general improvements.
In addition, we’ve added the remote suspension of Task Mining data capture for Private Preview customers only.
For more information, see the Task Mining install file release notes.
And for more information about our private preview releases, see Feature release types.
PUBLIC PREVIEW STUDIO Performance Spectrum component added to Views
With this public preview release, you can now add a Performance Spectrum component to your Studio Views.
Traditional process explorers show aggregated views that can overlook real process dynamics. The Performance Spectrum adds a time-based perspective, revealing how tasks interact and evolve. It highlights variations, bottlenecks, and performance shifts that are often hidden in aggregations, giving you clearer insights into how your processes truly run.
In this example, the Performance Spectrum helps a government agency to visualize how individual fines move through a defined sequence over time. This helps them to identify bottlenecks and validate that specific process patterns (like batching) are adhered to and stay consistent over time (e.g. throughout the year).

To understand more about this use case and to learn how to configure and use the Performance Spectrum, see: Performance Spectrum
And to read more about our private and public preview releases, see: Feature release types.
PUBLIC PREVIEW OBJECTS AND EVENTS Define composite primary keys on object-centric data model attributes
For source systems where uniqueness is defined by multiple attributes, Objects and Events now supports composite primary keys. Composite primary keys allow you to define a primary key using more than one attribute directly in the data model. This removes the need to manually concatenate attributes in transformation logic and helps improve query performance.
Previously, all object and event types in the object-centric data model required a single ID attribute with a String data type. This attribute served as the PK, uniquely identifying each row and enabling joins across objects and events. For source systems with composite PK (multiple columns), users had to manually concatenate these columns into a single ID using SQL transformations.
You can now define the PK for objects and events in one of two ways:
Single ID attribute (legacy approach): Provide your own ID column as the PK, as before.
Composite PK: Select multiple attributes to form a composite PK.
For more information, including a step-by-step guide to defining composite primary keys, see: Composite primary keys.
February 19, 2026
NEW STUDIO Agent Tools (MCP) now in General Availability
The Agent Tools (MCP) feature is a new Studio Asset that enables AI agents to securely access and interact with Celonis data and insights using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). The Agent Tools asset provides ready-to-use tools that can be used by AI agents to search for relevant information, retrieve real-time process context, trigger actions in external systems, and write decisions back to the Celonis Platform.
![]() |
Agent Tools can be created as new assets in Studio and then configured with the tools you want to make available to AI agents through the MCP. These tools can include data retrieval functions, insight generators, knowledge model queries, and more. Once the new asset is published, it will generate a unique URL that serves as an endpoint that can be connected to by other MCP clients.
For more information, refer to Agent Tools (MCP) in the Celonis Developer Center.

REMOVED BUSINESS MINER Business Miner service removed from the platform
Our Business Miner service has been removed from the platform and has already been replaced by our AI-driven Insight Explorer and Studio features.
With these advanced capabilities, you’ll benefit from:
Enhanced intelligence: Advanced AI integration and deeper customization options.
No additional cost: These features are already included in your Celonis Platform offering and can be used today at no extra cost.
Easy transition: With our Celonis Academy course, you can efficiently transition away from Business Miner.
As a result of the removal of this service, the Business Miner navigation item has been removed from the navigation bar and no users can access the service. As our Quickstarts feature rely on the use of Business Miner features, we have also removed these from the platform.
To get started with Insight Explorer, see: Insight Explorer.
REMOVED DATA INTEGRATION Quickstarts options removed from platform
Following the deprecation of the Business Miner service, the associated data integration Quickstarts have been removed from the platform. As these Quickstarts were only used to establish initial connections to source systems, this change does not affect existing workflows - any connections created with a Quickstart will continue to function as before.
To learn how to connect your source system to the Celonis Platform using our Extractor Builder options, see: Connecting data sources
February 12, 2026
NEW STUDIO Process Copilot Smart Routing
You can now create a “router” Process Copilot in Studio and use it to choose the correct tool for your specified task. To take advantage of this router Process Copilot, you can build a series of focused Process Copilots with specific skills or for a defined scope and then surface them as tools to the router. Then your users can interact with the router and use it to perform any of the tasks provided by the associated tools.
For example, you can build one Process Copilot per domain or one Process Copilot for each task. This allows each Process Copilot to keep its focus narrow and maintain high quality. You can then expose each of these focused Process Copilots as individual tools to the router Process Copilot. The router can then search these tools to find the Process Copilot that best fits the needs of each request.
Note
Each call to a Process Copilot being used as a tool is made with a new id, so the chat history is not preserved from previous calls made to that same tool.
When creating the Process Copilots to be used as tools, it is important to provide clear and accurate descriptions to help the router identify its functionality. Each of the Process Copilots being surfaced as tools must be published in the same Space as the router.
February 11, 2026
PRIVATE STUDIO Consistent event log colors across Process Mining Components
With this private preview release, the colors assigned to event logs will remain consistent across all your process mining components and assets. This means that the color assigned in the Event Log Builder or visual editor will be used for that event log in all of your process mining components, such as Process Explorer, Variant Explorer, Process Adherence Manager (PAM), Event Explorer, Case Explorer, Throughput Time (TPT) Explorer and any associated process filters. If the assigned color is changed in the Event Log Builder or visual editor, the change will be updated automatically across all components.
As part of this release, the color palette used for event log colors has been refreshed to make the available colors easier to distinguish from one another and improve the accessibility of the colors used in the process mining components.
To learn more about our Private Preview releases, see: Feature release types.
IMPROVED STUDIO New object-centric performance metrics in Event Explorer
The new Synchronization tab introduces object-centric performance metrics in the Event Explorer component, which allow you to analyze the arrival times of various objects at specific interaction points in the process. These new metrics include:
Event Lead Time: The total duration from when the earliest input object becomes available to the completion of that specific event. Event Lead Time can be thought of as the total amount of time needed for the preparation and execution of all steps in the process.
Synchronization (Sync) Time: The time between when the first and last input objects arrive at a shared event. Sync Time captures the delay caused by waiting for all involved objects to be ready.
Execution Time: Amount of time from when all input objects are available to when execution is complete. During this period, all objects are ready and nothing is blocked on the data side, but no action occurs.
![]() |
These metrics are computed for all shared events in the process and can be viewed on the Synchronization tab in the Event Explorer by clicking the arrow to the right of the Event logs column. The Synchronization tab shows the range of times for each metric and how frequently each time value occurred across the events in this process.
These metrics are available out-of-the-box and can help to identify critical bottlenecks in your processes such as:
How long does it take events with multiple objects/shared events/events requiring multiple inputs to complete? (Event Lead Time)
How much time is spent waiting for all inputs to arrive? (Sync Time)
How long does a process idle once all inputs are ready? (Execution Time)
For more information, see Event Explorer Component.

And to get started with Insight Explorer, see: Insight Explorer
IMPROVED OBJECTS AND EVENTS Improved control over catalog updates
Teams using Celonis core-process catalog v3.0.0 or higher now benefit from two enhancements to both automatic and manual catalog update workflows.
Auto-updates: Catalog auto updates now apply only to minor and patch releases to reduce the risk of unexpected breaking changes. Upgrading to a major release now requires a manual catalog update.
Manual updates: You can now choose whether to upgrade to the latest major version or stay on the latest minor/patch update.
To learn more about updating your catalog version, see: Core process catalog.

PRIVATE STUDIO Technical connection for View Reports
When scheduling and managing your View Reports, you can now choose between creating a personal connection, where the report is linked to an individual user in the team, or a technical connection.
A technical connection allows you to link a report or report trigger to a team account instead of an individual user in the Celonis Platform. By assigning View permissions to this connection, the report or trigger remains accessible and active even if the original creator leaves the team or loses Celonis Platform access.
In this example, the report is configured for a technical connection:
![]() |
To create a technical connection, a team admin must create a reporting application in the Admin & Settings area. For more information, see: Technical connection for View reports.
And to learn more about scheduling and managing View reports, see: View Reports.
February 5, 2026
PRIVATE STUDIO Migrating translations from an Analysis to a View
With this Private Preview release, you can now import translations from a Data Model to a Studio package.
Translations in an Analysis use Data Model name mappings. In Views, translations are saved in the package settings. To migrate translations, the name mappings can now be imported to the package settings.
When migrating an Analysis to a View, the translation syntax is automatically updated during the migration and uses the translation keys from the package, with no changes required in the Analysis or View. Users can then select their preferred language from the View Translations menu.
For more information about migrating Analyses, see Migrating Analysis to Views and for information specific to this functionality, see Migrating translations from an Analysis to a View.
And for more information about our private preview releases, see Feature release types.
IMPROVED AUTOMATION OAuth 2.0 available for Action Flows
We’re introducing OAuth 2.0 as a connection method for all Celonis Action Flow modules. This industry-standard framework allows applications to interact securely on your behalf without sharing sensitive credentials. You can find OAuth as a connection type in Action Flow modules. This connection type requires a Celonis Admin to create an OAuth client first to obtain client ID and client secret (basic type). See Adding OAuth client to Celonis Platform.

February 4, 2026
NEW AUTOMATION Annotation Builder in Process Orchestration
Annotation Builder, our AI-enhanced Studio asset for processing and labeling data, can now be used as a starting step for Process Orchestrations. This allows you to automatically trigger subsequent orchestration steps based on the specific findings and labels generated within Annotation Builder.
For more information, see Annotation Builder and Orchestration Engine.
IMPROVED ADMIN AND SETTINGS Improved permissions management experience
We’re introducing a refreshed permissions management experience that improves how administrators view and manage access across the platform.
This release includes:
A single, consolidated admin interface for viewing, granting, and managing permissions within Admin & Settings.
A new permissions interface that replaces checkbox-based controls with a chip-based model, making it clearer and easier to grant or remove permissions across users and teams.
An updated central authorization service that supports the new permissions experience.
While this update focuses on improving clarity, consistency, and usability for administrators, the underlying permission model remains unchanged:
There are no changes to permission behavior, access levels, or role definitions.
Existing user access remains exactly the same.
To learn more about managing your user permissions, see: Managing permissions.

IMPROVED OBJECTS AND EVENTS Updated Related Objects interface for one-to-one relationships
The interface for the Relationships to objects tab in the Objects and Events module has been updated to provide a clearer overview of your object-to-object relationships. In this new interface, the Outgoing and Incoming tabs have been replaced with a single list that shows all your one-to-one relationships on one page.

In this new list, the positioning of the objects on the card is meant to reflect their positioning within the relationship. For example, all one-to-many relationships will display the 1-sided object on the left. For many-to-many relationships, the current object will be displayed on the left. If there is a join table in the relationship, it will be displayed between the two objects.
![]() |
The list also uses the color of the chips to differentiate between the objects in the relationship. A dark chip will always be used for the current object and a light chip is displayed for the other objects. You can also click on a light chip to be taken to the page for that object.
For more information, see: Modeling objects and events.
February 2, 2026
PRIVATE STUDIO Insight generation within Views
With this Private Preview release, you can now generate Insights from within Views.
Previously, users generated Insights about their data in Insight Explorer before exporting them to Views. Now users can create Insights directly within Views containing KPI list or card components and apply the resulting Insight filters directly to their View.
![]() |
For more information, see Generating Insights in a View.
And for more information about our private preview releases, see Feature release types.
IMPROVED STUDIO Visual enhancements for View components
We’ve refreshed several View components with visual and functional updates to improve the look, feel, and usability of your dashboards and applications. These changes reduce wasted space, standardize the UI, and add new customization options for greater information density.
The highlights include:
Optimized KPI values: KPI values now scale to utilize more of the space available within the component.
Cleaner clickable KPIs: We removed wasted space around the clickable elements in clickable KPI list variation, and the unnecessary arrow was removed, resulting in a cleaner look and better space utilization.
For example, this was the previous clickable KPI:

And with the visual enhancements:

Removing unnecessary text: For the KPI Card, the "Related KPI" title is now only shown if trends are also enabled. When no trends are present, the title is removed to allow more space for the KPI values.
Reduced space between component and header: Many components had excessive spacing between the component and the header text. This has been reduced and standardized across all components.
For example, this was the previous chart component:

And now with the visual enhancements:

IMPROVED DATA INTEGRATION Increased string length limit for Cloud Extractors
Previously, Celonis limited string values in Cloud Extractors to a maximum of 80 characters. Based on customer feedback, this character limit has been increased. Cloud Extractors now support string values of up to 8 KB, with an increase to 65 KB planned in the coming weeks.
Important: Celonis dynamically determines column widths based on actual data to optimize performance and avoid unnecessary processing overhead. However, manually created tables, especially VARCHAR columns defined during the transformation phase, may require manual adjustment if incoming values exceed the existing column size.
If column widths are not updated, you may encounter transformation errors such as:
String of 82 octets is too long for type Varchar(80)
For extraction task best practice, see: VARCHAR optimization.
January 30, 2026
IMPROVED STUDIO Reusing View modules across packages
You can now use View modules across different Studio packages.
Previously, you could only reuse modules within your own package. This new functionality gives increased flexibility by allowing View module reuse across packages. Published changes to the reused View Module can be updated as required.
For more information, see Reusing View modules across packages.
January 29, 2026
PRIVATE STUDIO Reusing View modules across packages
With this Private Preview release, you can now use View modules across different Studio packages.
Previously, you could only reuse modules within your own package. This new functionality gives increased flexibility by allowing View module reuse across packages. Published changes to the reused View Module can be updated as required.
For more information, see Reusing View modules across packages.

NEW PROCESS DESIGNER LeanIX/CPM integration
We've released an integration that allows you to pull data from LeanIX and use it within Process Designer. You can access this integration via the Celonis Marketplace.
For more information on how to set up the integration, refer to LeanIX - Celonis Process Management integration.
NEW STUDIO Dimension switching in charts
Dimension switching enables faster, more flexible self-service analysis, allowing users to explore multiple data perspectives within a single chart for quicker insights and a better experience.
Users can now dynamically adjust the data in bar, column, line, and area charts by enabling dimension switching.
Previously, users couldn't easily switch between visualizing data on a weekly and a monthly basis.
With dimension switching, users can now change the data perspective displayed using a simple dropdown in the chart.
In this example, the user can select whether to display the Sum data by Ship Mode, State or City.

IMPROVED STUDIO Unifying Internal and External Process Copilots
The process for creating Process Copilots is being simplified by removing the need to specify between internal and external assets on the Create Process Copilot screen. Instead, all Process Copilots will have the option to be enabled for external use and you will be able to send both internal and external calls from the chat interface.
To make your Process Copilots externally available, you will enable the toggle switch in the new External Use section of the configuration screen to activate this asset for external API access. Once enabled, you can either copy the URL for the API or export the JSON code to use with your external tools. Any tools in this Process Copilot that are not available via API will be listed below the API URL field.
Note
Calls made using the external API will display on the Process Copilot Monitoring screen with a location of “External API”.

Any existing Process Copilots that were created to be external assets will be migrated to the new format automatically. All existing APIs will remain unchanged and the external API access for these assets will be enabled by default to ensure they continue to function.
For more information, see Creating Process Copilots.

IMPROVED STUDIO New AI-generated inefficiency metrics in Insight Explorer
Insight Explorer is getting upgraded to use AI capabilities to detect process inefficiencies within your event logs. These AI-generated metrics can be selected from the new Metric Recommendations section on the Metrics tab of your Insight Explorer configuration, allowing you to select pre-configured metrics that don’t currently exist in your Knowledge Model. Just select an event log and AI will generate process inefficiency metrics based on the selected event log that can be added and analyzed in Insight Explorer.
![]() |
To add one of the recommended metrics, click on the metric name to view the details and then click the Add to Insight Explorer button to add this metric to your configuration. Insights can then be generated to deep dive into those process inefficiencies.
For more information, see Configuring an Insight Explorer.
IMPROVED STUDIO Layout upgrades to the multi-object Process Explorer graph
In order to reduce the perceived complexity and increase the understandability of the Multi Object Process Explorer (MOPE) graph, a number of improvements are being introduced to the process graph layout and performance, including:
Highlighting of new elements - When adding events or connections, the updated portion of the graph will be highlighted to show what was added.

Larger arrowheads - The arrowheads on the process graph are now larger, making it easier to quickly identify the direction of edges. This change is especially helpful when viewing larger or more complex graphs.

Reduced zooming - When using the slider controls to add or remove events or connections from the process graph, the current level of zoom is maintained. For example, if you are viewing your process graph at 75% zoom and then add new events or connections, the graph will update but remain at 75% zoom. Previously, the graph would zoom out to show the entire process each time it was updated.
Improved connection routing - Makes it easier to identify loops and keeps the process graph more compact.

NEW BUSINESS APPS Data Model Tasks included in Inbox
The Tasks Inbox now includes Tasks triggered from Data Models (identifier-based), alongside existing record-based Task. This ensures that all tasks raised for users across Celonis Platform are accessible in one centralized location. For more information, see Inbox.

IMPROVED DATA INTEGRATION Enhanced and refreshed SQL editor
When creating or editing SQL transformation jobs, you can now use the enhanced, refreshed SQL editor by default. Previously available in our Objects and Events product area, this editor builds on the existing feature set while providing a more consistent experience across the platform.
In addition to searching existing statements, browsing tables from your data sources, and creating parameters, you can now open and work with multiple transformations at the same time:

While the enhanced SQL editor loads by default, you can also return to the previous experience by clicking Old SQL editor within a transformation:

To learn more about creating transformations, see: Extracting and transforming data.

IMPROVED STUDIO Group package assets
You can now group Studio package assets by type, functionality, or custom criteria. You can also sort each group and create new asset types directly within it.

To learn more about managing your Studio package assets, see Managing packages and permissions.
NEW STUDIO Control analyst access to Annotation Builder, Insight Explorer, and Process Copilot assets
With this release, admin users can now control which analysts can access, view, and edit Annotation Builder, Insight Explorer, and Process Copilot assets. This change creates an additional level of protection against unintended or negative consequences related to their use.
For more information, see the documentation for Annotation Builder, Insight Explorer, and Control analyst access to Process Copilot assets.
Note
This functionality is only available upon request. To enable it in your environment, contact us at Celonis Support.

IMPROVED STUDIO Exporting linked Views as PDF
In addition to exporting a main View as a PDF, you can now export a linked View while in view mode, either in Studio or in a published app. This enhancement lets you create shareable, offline versions of your data outside the Celonis Platform. You can also select multiple tabs, add page numbers, and adjust the PDF scale and orientation.
To export your Studio View or linked View as a PDF while in view mode (in Studio or Apps), click Share - Export PDF:

NEW STUDIO Stacking and grouping metrics across dimensions for bar and column charts
You can now quickly and easily split bar and column charts in Views across dimensions, letting you create stacked or grouped charts that adapt seamlessly to your data and provide accurate and meaningful data visualization.
Previously, creating stacked/grouped bar and column charts involved stacking/grouping multiple metrics and manually defining each stack or group in the bar or column chart individually. This required significant effort for larger data sets and was impractical when dealing with dynamic data as multiple metrics needed to be added and maintained.
This new feature lets you select which metrics are used to stack or group your data, set the ordering to ascending or descending and define how many stacks or groups are displayed (maximum of 20). You can also limit the number of data points displayed in the chart overall in the Data Settings section of the chart component which is useful when working with large data sets. In addition, you can choose the display colors for the different dimensions within each stack or group.
In this example, the bar chart displays multiple product sub-categories, with the stack length indicating the total sales for each product sub-category. Setting the Split by option to Ship Mode displays the number of items shipped by each shipping method for each product sub-category, as well as the average sales for each shipping method. Changing the colors used to display the different shipping methods aids visualization.
For more information, see Data dimensions and metrics.
IMPROVED STUDIO OBJECTS AND EVENTS Versioning and deploying packages to replace publishing workflow
We’ve replaced and upgraded the publishing workflow in Studio and Objects and Events with a new versioning and deployment system, giving you greater control over your content. Initially released in public preview, these features allow you to create and manage package and data models versions, track changes, deploy to development and production environments, and efficiently roll back to previous releases.
Studio: Studio lets you deploy packages and control which versions of packages and assets App end-users can access. With version control and support for multiple package versions, you can test new features and configurations before roll out, and offer different App versions for specific use cases via duplicating the package (e.g., locations, products, or teams).
To learn more, see: Versioning and deploying packages.
Objects and Events: Use versioning and deployment capabilities to create, test, and release numbered versions of your object-centric data models. You can deploy to development or production data pools and review or reload earlier versions at any time.
To learn more, see: Versioning and deploying OCDM.

IMPROVED STUDIO PQL editor added to select Knowledge Model entities
You can now use the PQL editor when creating and editing the following PQL-based Knowledge entities: Auto-generated attributes, calculated attributes, filters, and KPIs.
These improvements make working with PQL queries faster, clearer, and more powerful across the platform. They also bring the following benefits:
Pre-save validation: Calculated attributes are now validated before saving.
Improved readability: Display data appears in the sidebar for quick reference.
Enhanced variables: Easily access and apply enhanced variables during PQL query editing.
Flexible entity creation: No more single-column restrictions when creating new entities.
To learn more about creating Knowledge Models, see Knowledge Models.
And for an overview of the PQL editor, see PQL editor.
IMPROVED STUDIO New Data Label settings panel for charts in Views
We've added a dedicated Data Labels panel that gives you flexible and granular control of data labels in charts. It also provides feature parity with the data label customization options available in Studio Analysis (maintenance mode only).
Previously, data labels could make charts in Views look cluttered and the data labels themselves could be difficult to read. With the flexibility and greater control introduced with the new Data Labels panel, you can now:
Quickly toggle data labels on and off.
Move and rotate data labels to improve their readability.
Change the color of data labels, the color contrast and the text size.
Change the offset of data labels to prevent overlap.

IMPROVED STUDIO Fetch current user information with smart inputs
We've added a new smart input command. This lets you fetch information about the current user like their name, email address and role.
For more information, see Fetching current user information with smart inputs.
PRIVATE STUDIO Analysis to View migration extended to bookmarked filters
With this Private Preview release, you can now migrate bookmarked filters from Analyses to Views.
Previously, bookmarked filters used in Analyses had to be manually recreated from scratch in Views, resulting in additional work for users.
Admin and analyst users with edit permissions can now migrate bookmarked filters as required during the Analysis to View migration and select whether to migrate all bookmarked filters or shared bookmarked filters only.
Once migrated, the bookmarked filter type and owner are respected in the View and shared with the same users in the View as in the original Analysis.
For more information, see Migrating bookmarked filters to Views.
And for more information about our private preview releases, see Feature release types.
IMPROVED DATA INTEGRATION Extractor Builder now supports multiple dependency columns
You can now define multiple dependency columns within Extractor Builder custom configurations, which enables more sophisticated data extractions from your source systems. By setting multiple columns in your dependency configuration, the Extractor Builder automatically generates placeholders for each that you can use in your endpoint configuration to reference its value. This allows you to inject multiple values into a single request for precise data retrieval tailored to more complex use cases.

Additionally, this enhancement provides the architectural flexibility required from advanced source systems and APIs that require multi-layered requests. By being able to handle multiple dependency values, platforms that require composite keys or multiple filtering parameters to access data can also now be supported. This helps ensure a more robust and scalable integration process that keeps pace with your data landscape.
For more information on custom Extractor Building configurations, see Extractor Builder.

IMPROVED STUDIO Migrate legacy Views using the migration wizard
You can now migrate your legacy Views using the new migration wizard. In addition to migrating individual View components, you can choose between a fast-track migration or a custom migration:
Default / Fast track migration: Automatically migrates your Legacy View and supported features using default settings.
Custom / Step-by-step migration: Lets you choose which connected views, components, and variables to migrate.
Legacy Views are views created using the pre–May 2024 Studio feature set (previously known as the general availability feature set). While you can still use Legacy Views in Studio, they're no longer being developed or enhanced. We therefore recommend migrating your Legacy Views to the current Views feature to take advantage of the latest updates and improvements.
To learn how to migrate your legacy Views to Views, see Migrating Legacy Views to Views.

IMPROVED MACHINE LEARNING PyCelonis MLWB Read/Write Access to Augmented Attributes
PyCelonis has been updated to allow Machine Learning Workbench (MLWB) scripts to directly read from and write data to augmented attributes. Previously, interacting with augmented attributes required complex workarounds or was not supported directly. Changes made to data via ML/AI models are now directly and immediately reflected in frontend applications built in Celonis Studio and Views.
Data Scientists and Analysts can now build ML pipelines that directly drive operational applications. Instead of just analyzing data, their scripts can write predictions or classifications back to the data model that instantly update the Studio/Views interfaces used by business stakeholders.
Users must update their PyCelonis package to the latest version to access this capability. For more information, refer to the documentation: PyCelonis - PyCelonis.
IMPROVED STUDIO View filter enhancements
We've made some changes to filters in Studio Views to help simplify and enhance their use.
Built-in (attribute and process) filters are now available in edit mode in addition to view and interactive modes. This lets you create and apply complex filters without writing PQL statements or switching between Studio modes. For more information, see Filtering Studio Views.
You can also now view the underlying PQL statements used to implement View filters in Edit mode. Copying and editing these PQL statements means you don't need to create your own filters from scratch. You can also save your filters to the Knowledge Model as global filters. To find out more, see Viewing and reusing filter PQL statements.
![]() |
We've also made attribute filters more user friendly. You can select which attributes can be selected by business users, helping ensure only relevant options and data are displayed. For more information, see Attribute filters.
![]() |
We've also improved syncing between process filters and View components. You'll get a notification if an event log is:
Automatically selected in the process filter settings when a View component is configured with an event log.
Removed from a View component.
You can then review and edit your process filter settings if required. For more information, see Process filters.
We've also aligned container components with other components so they can be now excluded from filtering. For more information, see Containers / Conditional layouts.
