This is 2026.9 documentation. Coverage here is incremental: a page exists only where 2026.9 differs or is newly documented. For any other topic, switch to Current (2026.8 and earlier) in the version selector.
Dashboards load models in the 2026.9 data format. You do not need compatibility mode for that. Models published with 2026.9 connectors, ACC sync that writes the new format, and Rhino or IFC file uploads all appear in Dashboards. This includes older versions: Speckle Server has upgraded existing version history to the new format, so Dashboards load against your full model history, not just data published after the fix. A few widgets are not ported yet. Those saved instances stay on the grid as placeholders. They keep their configuration. They do not load 2026.9-format data until that widget is ported. See Dashboard widgets not yet available. For building, sharing, and configuring dashboards, use the current Dashboards documentation.
Compatibility mode is optional, and it ends on 1 November 2026. Request it only when ACC sync or drag-and-drop still has to write the old format for another tool. See Compatibility mode.

New widgets, not just a compatibility port

Reading 2026.9-format models is the baseline fix. Alongside it, a few widgets are new — they did not exist in Current Dashboards:
  • Dual viewer — two Model Viewer panes in one widget, cameras synced, for comparing two models side by side.
  • Elements table — a unified table replacing both Element table and Pivot table, built for the new data format.
  • Ratio value and Ratio value by property (Beta) — a live ratio between two numbers (or a number and a per-property breakdown), traced back through its property sources, calculated fields, and filters.
  • Numeric range (Beta) — a slider filter widget that publishes a range for other widgets to filter by.
  • Property checker — model validation rules surfaced as a dashboard widget, rather than only in the model checker tool.
These ship alongside the format fix, not as a separate release.

Dashboards remain the analytics product

Dashboards stay available on every plan. Workspaces without Speckle Intelligence keep using them. Workspaces with Intelligence can use Dashboards and Intelligence Reports side by side. Our focus for Dashboards from here is stability and reliability: keeping the existing widgets and workflows working well, and responding to bug reports. We’re not currently working on expanding what Dashboards can do — that effort is going into Intelligence Reports instead. If you have built a dashboard that solves a problem in a way we have not seen before, share it in the forum or email [email protected].

​
Intelligence Reports

For workspaces with Speckle Intelligence, Intelligence Reports start from an analysis you already ran in Speckle Intelligence Chat. You ask a question about your model, the chat builds the analysis, and you save that as a Report. Reports can also draw on external data sources — Snowflake, Databricks, and others — so cost rates, programme data, or benchmarks sit next to model data. See Create and share Intelligence Reports for editing, sources, and sharing.
Intelligence Reports require a workspace plan that includes Intelligence. Dashboards remain available on all plans.

FAQ

No. Dashboards already read the 2026.9 format. Request compatibility mode only when ACC sync or drag-and-drop must keep writing the old format for another tool. See Compatibility mode.
That widget is not ported yet. The saved configuration stays. The list of placeholders is on Dashboard widgets not yet available. Other widgets on the same dashboard still load 2026.9-format data.
Compatibility mode ends for every workspace. That date is for ACC sync and drag-and-drop format, not for Dashboards. Dashboards already read 2026.9-format models.
All of them. Speckle Server has upgraded existing version history to the new data format, so Dashboards load against a model’s full version history, not just versions published after the fix.
