# Elementary 0.6.3

*December 21, 2022: [v0.6.3 Python](https://github.com/elementary-data/elementary/releases/tag/v0.6.3), [v0.6.6 dbt package](https://github.com/elementary-data/dbt-data-reliability/releases/tag/0.6.6)*

### 🔥 What's new?

* **Slack alerts V2** 2️⃣

  * **Elementary now supports customizing alerts, so you could notify data producers and consumers** 🧑‍🔧
    * Instead of sending detailed technical alerts, you can select fields. Learn more here [how to configure it](/oss/guides/alerts/elementary-alerts#customize-alerts-owners-test-descriptions-tags-subscribers-and-layout).
  * Email owners will be translated to Slack handles in the alerts. Thanks [Josh Elston-Green](https://github.com/jelstongreen) for contributing.
  * Alerts also underwent **layout improvements** 🎨

* **New data tests** 🩺

  * [Advanced schema tests](/data-tests/schema-tests/schema-changes), **useful for source monitoring and enforcing data contracts:** ✅
    * `schema_changes_from_baseline` - Define a schema in your `models/<properties.yml>` and ensure its validity.
    * `json_schema` - Validate the schema of JSON columns. 😱
    * To ease configuration and implementation - both tests include operations to **auto-generate the schema.**
  * New and [improved table anomalies tests](/data-tests/add-elementary-tests), including `where_expression`: 📉
    * `volume_anomalies` - Monitor your row count over time.
    * `freshness_anomalies` - Monitor the freshness of you data over time.

* **Report UI new features** 🆕

  * Filter your report by **Tags & Owners sidebars** #️⃣🤵🏻
  * [dbt-expectations](https://github.com/calogica/dbt-expectations) integration in the UI, including test descriptions.
  * Custom test descriptions were added to the UI.

* **Monitor job results** ⚛️

  * Added job-related columns to `dbt_invocations` and created `job_run_results` table.
  * Keep track of your dbt jobs in dbt Cloud, GitHub Actions, Airflow, etc.
  * The new columns [can be viewed here](https://github.com/elementary-data/dbt-data-reliability/blob/4695474ba10740a95822954c44adbc52f4f2af95/models/run_results.yml#L81).

* **Sensitive data / PII** 🤫
  * Have sensitive data that contains PII? x
  * Use the new flag (`-disable-samples`) to disable sampling of data in the report and alerts

### 💫 More changes

* Added support for `dbt-utils 1.0.0` - Thanks [Jumpei Chikamori](https://github.com/pei0804) for contributing.
* Elementary's tables are not full-refreshed by default - This can be changed using the `elementary_full_refresh` var.
