## What's New

February 27, 2025

#### Labeling Queues

Labeling Queues are now live, making dataset annotation more scalable and efficient with features such as:

* **New Annotator Role** – A dedicated RBAC role with focused permissions, ensuring annotators only see assigned records while keeping other data secure.

* **Seamless Queue Creation** – Create Labeling Queues directly from dataset records, with annotations automatically written back for easy tracking.

* **Annotation Resets** – AI Engineers can reset annotations, allowing re-labeling when needed.

* **Flexible Assignment Methods** – Choose between Random or All assignments for annotators in a queue.

* **Fast & Streamlined UI** – Optimized for quick labeling workflows with: Hotkey support, background data fetching & pagination, and background submissions.

#### Monitor Runtime

Users can now schedule when monitors run. Users can configure their monitors to run:

* Hourly & Daily: Select specific days of the week.

* Daily, Weekly & Monthly: Runs at 12 AM UTC after creation.

* Default Behavior: Monitors will continue running every 3 hours, 7 days a week unless configured otherwise.

#### Column Specification With Exporting Data

Users can now export only the columns they care about for large datasets, reducing SDK export time by up to 95%.

* Specify which columns of data you'd like to export when exporting data via the [ArizeExportClient](https://arize-client-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/llm-api/exporter.html)

* When using the `export_model_to_df` function, users can specify the `columns` parameter to only export specific columns.

#### Create a Dataset from CSV

Users can now upload CSVs as a dataset in Arize. Columns in the file will be attributes that users can access in Experiments or in Prompt Playground. [Learn more →](/docs/ax/develop/datasets/how-to-datasets)

#### Monitor Improvements

We've made some updates to make monitors more organized, searchable, and user-friendly. Here's what's new:

* Cardless Design – A sleek, modern table view for better readability.

* Project-Level Monitors – LLM and ML monitors now have separate tabs.

* Search & Sort – Find monitors by name or dimension, plus sort by any column.

* Summary Stats – See how many monitors triggered in the last 24 hours

* New LLM Monitor Types – Clearer categories:

  * Custom Metric Monitor → Performance Monitor with a custom metric preselected.

  * Span Property Monitor → Data Quality Monitor for span properties.

  * Evaluation Monitor → Data Quality Monitor for evaluations.

  * Quick Monitor for Errors – Easily enable error count monitoring (count, status\_code = ERROR).

#### OTEL Tracing Via HTTP

We've added support for HTTP protocol when sending traces to Arize through an OTEL tracer.

* To use:\* S\*pecify `/v1/traces` as the endpoint and `Transport.HTTP` as the transport in our `register` helper

```csharp theme={null}
// tracer_provider = register(
    endpoint="https://otlp.arize.com/v1/traces",     # NEW
    transport=Transport.HTTP,                        # NEW
    space_id=SPACE_ID,
    api_key=API_KEY
    project_name="test-project-http",
)
```
