We use metabase heavily at work. However where it seems like all these tools fall down is organization around the hundreds of dashboards and questions. I wish it had like a built wiki or something to build out more navigation. Anyone know of any good ways to do that?

100% agree.

One thing that helps is hooking metabase up to its own database and building queries on your queries, e.g.:

    select *
    from report_card 
    where dataset_query ilike '%' || {{query}} || '%'

(You can also join in metadata like the author, when it was last ran, etc.)

We also try really hard to keep the Collection directory structure clean and consistent. But it's still really hard.

That's so... meta

Maybe take a look at https://datahubproject.io/integrations ? I only heard about it today, but it looks pretty promising. Spun out of LinkedIn, open source, lots of integrations, including Metabase

Mhmm this gives me an idea.. what if I could "group" metabase sql queries by "similarity" (either of results or of the query itself)

Another option could be to use LLM to summarize, tag and group queries for better discoverability.
