Feature and Capability Updates

Spatial Data Types Enable Next-Level Intelligence Within Cinchy, you can now create spatial tables with geography and geometry column types using the (WKT) representation of these objects. Columns also have the option to be indexed in the advanced settings on the column itself. We’ve included more information to help you understand how you can leverage spatial data types in our documentation below.

Metadata-Driven Form Capabilities Sometimes a table just won't do the job. Cinchy provides an angular application which was built using Cinchy to convert any table to a Metadata-Driven Form. This functionality provides you with a new way to collect and collaborate on data on your fabric. If you’re curious to learn more about how this works, watch as our CEO, Dan DeMers, walks you through the creation of Metadata-Driven Forms in the Cinchy Learning Series.
