Over the past quarter, we have been enhancing your reporting experience. We've implemented several new features, alongside numerous minor improvements and bug fixes. Key updates include:
​

Improved Sorting and Filtering:

• Multi-column Sort: You can now sort your data across multiple columns. Use the button in the upper right or use shift click on the columns you want to sort
• Filter Search Flattened: The filter search experience has been streamlined.
• ALL/ANY Filter Bar Operator: This operator is now more visible for easier use.
• Sort by Logic: Accessibility severity for example.

Enhanced Report Visibility and Sharing:

• Report Sharing Status Column: A new column indicates if a report has been shared.
• Default Public Reports: All reports are now visible to others by default.

New Export and Data Access Options:

• Additional In-App Export Types: More export options are available directly within the application.
• Pages Without Specific Tags: Easily identify pages that do not have a particular tag.
• Folder Creator Column: A new column displays the folder creator.
• Find Answers with New Linking and Drill Paths: Discover insights through new linking and drill paths to other reports and Audit Reports.

Interface and Terminology Updates:

• Journey Status Colorization: Journey Status now includes colorization for better visual cues.
• Renamed Min/Max to Oldest/Newest: Date-related column aggregations now use "Oldest" and "Newest" for clarity.
• Retitled Accessibility Columns: Accessibility-related columns have been renamed for improved understanding.

Simplified New Reports: The views for "Create New Reports" have been streamlined to feature only the most essential columns, facilitating easier onboarding for users.

🛑 New: Stop & Finish Running Audits

You can now stop a running audit and keep the results it has collected so far — no need to wait for a full completion to see your data.

A new Stop & Finish Run option is available in the three-dot menu on your audit cards and reports. When selected, the audit stops scanning new pages and finalizes a report with everything it’s already collected.

You’ll also be able to see when an audit has been stopped — this status now appears in both the Audit Info panel and the Audit Runs report.
​

This gives you more flexibility to:

• End long-running audits early
• Capture partial results when you already have what you need
• Save time while still getting valuable insights

🚨 New Browser Console Logs Report 🚨

We’ve officially released the Browser Logs Report 🎉

Why this matters:

• Surfaces hidden browser errors and warnings that normally require dev tools to catch 🔍
• Saves QA and dev teams hours of manual debugging ⏱️

• Provides full context (page, tag, script, location) for faster troubleshooting ⚡

How it works:

During audits, ObservePoint automatically captures browser console logs (INFO, WARNING, ERROR), ties them to the page and script source, and presents them in an easy-to-read report.

👉 Check it out in the platform under Reports → Browser Logs.

We’ve rolled out an update to User & Account Management that makes handling usernames much simpler.

What’s new:

• Users now have two states: Active and Inactive.
• Instead of permanently deleting a user, you can move them to the inactive state.

If they return (common when someone comes back or changes roles), you can reactivate their account—no need to create a new username.

Review the Users help doc for more details.

New Feature Release:

Report Linking & Drilling

We just launched cross-report linking and drill-down in reports! 🎉

With this release, you can now:

• Drill within a report – quickly ungroup and filter to isolate relevant data without leaving the view.

• Jump between reports – click on a metric (e.g., # of pages with a specific tag) and go directly to the detailed report showing those exact pages.

• Save time & boost productivity – no more manual filtering or back-and-forth between reports.

Try it now: hover over a cell, click the 3-dot menu, and choose a drill or link option.
