Data is powerful, but data with context is actionable. The new Annotations feature in Cloud Analytics closes the gap between your charts and the real-world events that shape them. Now, you can move beyond just what happened and show your entire team why it happened. Explain a sudden spike, mark a new feature deployment, or record a key decision. You can create Annotations directly on your reports, ensuring everyone who sees the data gets the full story.

How it works:

• Add an annotation with a date, label (e.g., infrastructure change, deployment, general note), and context
• Choose visibility: keep it to the current report or show on all reports
• See it one place with markers on time-series charts and indicators in tables 
• Hover over to read details, edit or remove

There’s no setup required. Open any report and click Add annotation in the top-right report toolbar to get started.
