As an Admin User, you need to be aware of the many possibilities that Crystal offers as well as of some limitations that you might encounter.
A deep knowledge of Crystal allows you to make the most of the experience!
Let's see an overview of the limitations in the Console's capabilities, broken down by Area and Feature and summarized.
You will also be redirected to the specific Feature page to find out more details!

In order to guarantee an optimal conversational experience for the Member User, a minimum of 5/6 Topics must be configured in Console. With less Topics, Crystal might encounter training problems and not be able to recognize Entities.
Crystal supports the connection to Data Sources with TLS >= 1.2
At the moment Crystal is not supporting complex fields like:
“Json objects“ for Postgres
“LOB“ for Oracle
If such field types are present in a table, Crystal will not be able to use them in the Topic Configuration process, nor to preview the related data
There are some restrictions on the use of special characters and punctuation signs in some fields, and in particular:
Crystal doesn’t support column names that contain special characters like .(),%$…
The presence of a special symbol inside a column name is causing the failure of the Topic retrieval
Crystal doesn’t support periods inside the schema name
Crystal doesn’t support column names that include "/" for dynamic filters
As of now, Crystal is not supporting Groups hierarchy (Groups belonging to other Groups)
It is not possible to edit a Topic without unpublishing it first
It is not possible to delete a Topic that is in the statuses of "publishing", "unpublishing" or "published"
It is not possible to select a “number” column in the "group by" field for a table without binning, even if the number is an integer
For Multi-Entity visualizations, it is not possible to use different aggregations or column types on Entities
These are the maximum values available as you configure Topics:
Maximum number of Filters per Topic: 7
Maximum number of Filter Values for a single Filter: 50.000
Maximum number of total Tables in the target DB: 40
Maximum number of Columns for a single Table: 24
Maximum number of Joins for a single Topic: 5
Maximum number of Topics: 100
You can’t set a required Filter without a default value
You cannot have more than three mandatory filters (excluding the time filter)
At the moment, the Filter Values are updated only during the publication or depublication of a Topic: there’s no automated way to update the Filter Values without a training action
It’s currently not possible to join objects from different data sources
It’s not possible to perform operations between different fields (es: column A + column B): you can create Custom Entities with aggregations instead
A maximum of 1000 Filters can be allowed per User
Different logics for "Allow" and "Revoke" actions in Topics and Filters Tab
Missing visibility of permissions for inherited Topics / Filters
Missing visibility of permissions in Multiple or Mixed Targets selection
Missing "Revoke" option for Filters in Multiple or Mixed Targets selection
