Release Notes 4/15/21: Dataset Lineage, Segment Prioritization Lists, BCC with SendGrid, bypass SendGrid subscription groups

✨ New and Improved

• Dataset Lineage is now available at the dataset level. It shows pipe dependencies within Simon for Contact Data, Data Lake, and Simon Warehouse purpose datasets specifically using the Simon Snowflake integration.

• Segment Prioritization Lists is the new name for what was formerly known as Segment Suppression. Use this Beta feature to avoid sending multiple messages to the same contact.

• A BCC option is now available for SendGrid sends! With the BCC option, you can configure a flow or journey to send a copy of the outgoing messages to an internal BCC address. Available addresses are pre-configured by an account admin and if none have been set up, the option won't display in the builder. These messages count toward the messages send volume in SendGrid.

• You can now bypass SendGrid subscription preferences in channel actions. This option should only be used for transactional messages. SendGrid still includes an unsubscribe link, however unsubscribed users will also receive the message.

Removed 🗄️

• Flow Index and Metrics have been deprecated. You can use the Flow Details Page to report on these items.
