Date filed Issue number Description
2023-08-02 MLA-4650 Error in apply command on simple xml dashboard when input is changed
2023-07-26 MLA-4646 model replication fix for IDXs for non-admin users
2023-04-05 MLA-4564 Post upgrade from ES 6.1.1 to 7.0.2 has caused savedsearch with MLTK macro is returning a lot of false positives notables created

Workaround:
The model is fine and it is likely that the outburst of notables were due to a true positive. However, if the customer determines that it is still a false positive, they may want to consider lowering the sensitivity.
2023-03-23 MLA-4531 Onnx model upload errors out on models that are not encoded properly
2023-02-21 MLA-4451 "Converting {} field(s) with categorical values into categorical fields" warning message should be logged discreetly and not appearing in UI/dashboard.

Workaround:
No workaround available.
2023-02-06 MLA-4442 Correlation searches using/generating __mlspl_failures_by_src_count_1h model is recording excessive amount of btool logs
2022-08-24 MLA-4320 Experiments' Search bar does not work with map command when used with $$ such as date_hour=$hour$

Workaround:
Run your SPL in the regular Search bar. If you want to see SODA outlier visualizations, add show_density=true show_options="feature_variables,split_by,params" to your SPL and select Distribution Plot from the Visualization tab.
2022-07-20 MLA-4303 Singular Matrix error in StateSpaceForecast Algo
2022-07-03 MLA-4298, MLA-4160 'apply' search processor too aggressive in throwing exceptions

2021-11-25 MLA-4178 Experiment Alert search not created correctly from Assistant

2021-07-09 MLA-4026 What-If Analysis does not properly display on some Unix platforms
2020-08-03 MLA-3950 Apply command does not run if used from a sub search

Workaround:
Use
appendcols
command to append the column that will be returned from the subsearch to the savedsearch's columns, instead of assigning its value to a non-existing column in the savedsearch. Example:
| inputlookup track_day.csv
| fit LogisticRegression fit_intercept=true "vehicleType" from "batteryVoltage" "engineCoolantTemperature" "engineSpeed" "lateralGForce" "longitudeGForce" "speed" "verticalGForce" into "example_vehicle_type"
makeresults count=50000
save as
MLA3950
|savedsearch MLA3950 | appendcols \[| inputlookup track_day.csv | apply "example_vehicle_type" | table vehicleType]
This will append the
vehicleType
column from the
subsearch
to the
savedsearch
columns.
2019-12-17 MLA-3701 Search bars in Assistants will not display more than approximately 500k rows

Workaround:
This is mostly a visual issue - the actual number of results the Assistant will use when fitting a model is not affected.

Workaround:
Use the "rename" or "eval" command to rename the field prior to using it.

2019-07-12 MLA-3237 Anova table does not allow some special characters in formula so in field names also

Workaround:
Rename your field names before running "score anova" if they include one or more of those special characters:

 (r'[&%$#@!`\|";<>^]')
