Bringing data context to business users—this update includes a revamped Chrome Extension, notifications for favorite assets, and more. Here’s what’s up. ⬆️

✨ What's New

🧩 New Chrome Extension is Here!

The Select Star Chrome Extension now makes it easier to see data context right where you work—no need to switch tabs. Great for business users who want quick answers. If you haven’t already, install it from !

  • Shows Up Automatically – The extension automatically appears on supported dashboards and BI tools.

  • Cleaner Design – A new side panel replaces the old pop-up for easier viewing.

  • Ask AI Anywhere – Get insights about tables, metrics, and lineage right from the page you’re on.

🔔 Stay Informed with Favorites Notifications

Now you can get schema change notifications on your favorited data assets. Columns added or deleted on a table you use frequently? You’ll know right away.

You can subscribe to notifications for:

  • Metadata changes (e.g. descriptions, tags, owners)

  • Schema changes (e.g. columns added, deleted, or renamed)

  • Discussion and comments

➕ Improvements

📊 Tableau Embedded Data Sources & Calculated Fields Lineage

Select Star now fully supports embedded Tableau data sources, bringing them to parity with published sources in both lineage and discovery.

  • Field-Level Lineage – Trace upstream dependencies for all Tableau field types, including calculated fields, sets, groups, and more.

  • Unified Lineage View – Embedded data sources now appear in lineage graphs alongside published sources, providing a complete picture.

  • Smarter Lineage Mapping – We now distinguish direct vs. indirect field references to keep lineage clean, accurate, and easy to follow.

This upgrade makes it easier for business and technical users alike to understand how embedded fields power dashboards—without leaving Select Star.

🔧 Incremental

UX Improvements

  • Metrics – Dimensions now show directly on the main tab, it’s easier to create metrics within collections, and dimension columns are more clearly exposed.

Check out for more details. We also support .

Notifications are sent through the same channels you already use—email, Slack, or in-app. You can customize what you receive anytime in , or learn more in the .
