Brobench v5.3 Release Notes

Here’s the list of things we’re releasing in Brobench v5.3 Pegasus.

About Pegasus

Pegasus is a small but fascinating constellation in the northern sky, best known for the striking “Great Square of Pegasus” that serves as a guidepost for stargazers each autumn.

Named after the winged horse of Greek mythology, Pegasus carries both scientific and cultural significance from hosting notable deep-sky objects like the spiral galaxy Messier 74 to inspiring centuries of storytelling.

  • Managed Variables: Essential SOQLs in Brobench supports specifying Query Variables and when you execute such SOQL, it prompts you to enter the Query Variables.

Managed Query Variables features lets you do all that. More Info
