Entropy based passwords are undoubtedly next level security.In our organisation we stumbled upon a problem where security dept required specific criteria for passwords (min 8 character for instance). Level 3 security password fulfils this criteria BUT level 3 security (own experimentation) requires minimum 10-12 chars. With no specific prompts on how to set the right password many of our users are getting frustrated and unable to create an account.I’m sure we re not the only org dealing with this issue perhaps we could integrate the min char length to create a way to plug this password system into more traditional once

I wanted to remove inactive threads from the "Help Others" section of Tab widget. Unfortunately, closed topics still show there - they will only disappear if a best answer is marked, however there are some questions in our community that there is no best answer and we prefer to close the topic instead. Related to:Idea by @Martin B. 

Many API operations will require a moderator Id as a query parameter. For the Api Action action in Zapier, it’d be great if there was a field you could configure for this when it’s required. Less technically savvy users may not know how to add the query string at the end of their API URL 

This may not be needed if this idea is delivered:  In the absence of an out-of-the-box way to create topics anonymously, it’d be possible to set up a custom automation with a survey or another intake form that generates the topic as a set anonymous user. The API operations needed for creating the anonymous question are already available. However, we’re missing a key piece for a positive user experience: the ability to subscribe the user to the topic so they receive updates on their (anonymous) post. Operations exist for assigning a Like, but not for subscribing. Subscribing is preference as it is also anonymous and because it would then leverage system emails and user preferences. 

Currently each time you move your column widths and close out it resets to the default widths. Additionally many members of my team find it easier to use excel sheets due to the customization of these widths of rows and columns to be smaller than the current default. Right now you have to scroll more often.  This idea is coupled with the current idea of having more than 25 rows defaulted per portfolio view. Each rep every day needs to click the 50 option and then sort through 3-4 pages which decreases adoption. 

As an admin, it's not intuitive that fields which are configured within the cockpit details configuration page to be non-editable are completely hidden from within the “create CTA” action in rules engine.It would be more intuitive to show all fields that have been added into the cockpit configuration page, but have those that are non-editable to be "greyed out". I understand this would only be developed going forward within Horizon rules.For example, here is our configuration of the CTA Detail View Layout, where you can see a field named Parent Contract Number is configured, but marked to be non-editable:  However, when you are building a rule to create this type of CTA, you don’t have an option to map any value to this field since it’s been marked as non-editable:Instead, it would be more intuitive to see the any field marked to be non-editable within the rule action, but greyed out, with a mention that this field has been configured within the cockpit detail view layout to be non-edi

We have had great results with our implementation of Account-Based Forecasting, and our CS leaders and CSMs love the ease of use! Many of our teammates were heavy users of Opportunity-based Forecasting before we migrated to Account-Based Forecasting, and some notable parity gaps between the features have been mentioned often by power users, including:Post Forecast Notes to Timeline button:Forecast Notes edit pane for long text field, featuring Log to Timeline button at bottom left     This feature saves several clicks for CSMs to post important updates to Timeline and ensures that Renewal Center updates are not a missed second step after having critical renewal discussions with a client, which drives overall forecast accuracy.Column Header Search: Forecast Column header search boxes, showing example column headers Opportunity Name, Company, Type, Owner, and CSM     Column header search is a fast, temporary filter option that can be applied to the columns visible to the user. This helps

Right now I get one slack notification per CTA and task however it does not include the name so these all just look like duplicate notifications and this feels like a ton of noise. I got in this example 11 slack notifications for 1 NPS follow up. Either this needs to include the name or even better work more like cockpit and just send one notification for the CTA and then I can click into the tasks in the playbook from there. This is notification overload.   

Hi Team,Customer requested to allow them to update system objects (call to action, timeline) via rules engine. Below is the scenario:They are looking to update around 65k records with a new field tagging on CTAs. They want to update the required values for these three new fields on older CTA records but, we cannot update records on system items via rules engine.Thanks & Regards,Syam

Hi Team, When we use date time field in reporting and try to use count distinct function, it doesn’t show results explicitly for the given criteria, reason being, the date time field cannot be aggregated as count distinct of date only. We can however, create another field and load data using formula field for date type of datatype.It would be great if we could get this without making any changes/creating any field, similar to what we have in Excel, etc. where if we have date time field, the count distinct function aggregates data same as the date field and only show the date field.

My customer would like the ability to hide/show specific tabs on the Success Plan section.  For example, hide the Gantt chart or Collaboration tabs so that they don’t become confusing as they don’t exactly fit into their workflow.

Adding onto this idea:We would like to be able to specify it at the objective category level.  Our use case is that we have an objective category called Internal Only.  Would like to be able to make that one not shared by default.

Hi Guys, It would be great if you could add the functionality for us to copy a previous slide on a survey so we dont have to copy the same things out again (especially if we are asking for the same responses but altering the question slightly). E.G.  How do you find the home page?Great, Good, Average Bad? How do you find the Search Page? Great, Good, Average, Bad? at the minute I have create the same thing over and over again whereas a copy and paste would be much more time saving!

We just switched from using Salesforce to Hubspot. We were previously using the Gong integration with Salesforce, but it’s not available with Hubspot yet. 

Per other Gainsight Community feedback (example 1 // example 2), boolean fields displaying as checkboxes are vastly preferred over “true/false.” Please consider reverting the way boolean fields display on the revamped 360 layouts back to the checkbox display, as opposed to “true/false.” Thanks in advance for your consideration

Opportunity: Logging a milestone automatically using Rules Engine is a huge help in streamlining and enhancing the tracking of activities within the Timeline. However, the current limitation of the Notes section as a simple text field is hindering the effectiveness of this feature.  Improved Data Quality: A milestone would contain a lot of information (e.g., project details, dates, comments). Converting the Notes section into a rich text field will allow us to input structured and well-formatted data, ensuring the accuracy and completeness of logged milestones. Enhanced Visibility: Rich text formatting options i.e., bold, italics, bullet points make the logged milestones more visually appealing and comprehensible. This increased clarity will aid in better communication and understanding. Customization: A rich text field offers customization capabilities, allowing users to format their notes according to their specific needs. This flexibility will allow us to highlight and emphasize

In a reply to this idea, @xiaoyu-shen saidcontent helpfulness can be done without logging in And Content Helpfulness votes don’t appear in user data exports or user activities that come through via the Salesforce integration. (Vote for this idea if you’d like to see that added)All this seems to indicate that tracking content helpfulness by user would be a prerequisite to both those ideas. Long term, I’d love to be able to analyze content helpfulness by user roles, whether using the data export or with improvements to dashboards and analytics. 

You can get this via the Topic export, but it’d be so much easier if you could filter the Content Dashboard by Public Tags and then sort by the columns in the table below. For example, Content Helpfulness is not included in the export. Use Case: Building FAQ and popular content lists by tags. 

As we know there is two usecases when post is edited:User edit his/hers post Moderator edit postThere are situations when it is important to know what was edited - what was removed, what was the previous or original version.Additionally: When checking the version history, it would be also helpful to see also who have edited the post.At the moment there is no possibility to check the version history from posts. Only from articles.We used Khoros before inSided. Khoros has this option, hopefully inSided as well in the future. 

Right now, the actions off of an item randomly sort.  When building a complex rule, this makes it very difficult to confirm the run order of the items. It would be great if a) they stayed in the order they would run and b) we were able to change said order after the items are built (like we were able to do in the bionic rules). This seems to be a key component that is missing in the Bionic rules engine.

It would be great if we had consistency within the rules engine.  Example; If I write a case expression with a date, I have to remember that this filter uses last n days. When I filter for an action, I have to remember it is subtract n days from rule run. This makes building more complicated to find the right, and this is within the same tool.

We are only able to map to text fields in the filters on dashboards in GS but I would love to be able to also map to dropdown fields for filters so we are not limited in what we can filter on in there.

It would be fantastic if we could save the mapping we complete for x-org migrations.  That way, if items fail, we are able to edit rather than start over. Use case: Sometimes, you are mapping dozens of fields and items, and this is a time consuming process.  This would allow better pinpointing of errors when applicable.

We love the idea of displaying the customer stage on the journey widget, but we are not able to load the historical date changes. We have not implemented stages until now so the field was blank when we started (which I imagine will be the same for any new Gainsight customer). It would be great if there was a stage history object where we could populate the dates that the stage changed for each customer so the widget could accurately track the true customer lifecycle both pre and post Gainsight implementation. 

Our org uses lots of data designs, maybe too much. We’re going to audit ours so we asked Gainsight support for an export. I think this would be a cool feature to add to your reports, maybe to the Feature Usage object. Having an export of all my data designs, along with all the metadata, will help me manage my Data Designs better. I’m extremely fine with that export delivered through a report.
