Accountability as "Giving an Account"

The Core Idea

The word "accountable" contains its own definition: the ability to give an account - a story - of what you did.

Accountability isn't about outcomes. It's about process goals - routines you control that give you a good likelihood of success.

Process Goals vs Outcome Goals

Enhance Usage Analytics for Embedding

Branch: enhance-usage-analytics-for-embedding Date: 2026-03-24 Stakeholders: Roman (spec owner), Vamsi (PM), John Swanson (tech design), Ben Grabow (implementation), Alessio Laiso (hackathon demo/mockup), Eliot (optional) Tech doc: Linear doc

What and Why

Metabase's embedding customers lack visibility into how their embedded content is being used. The view_log and query_execution tables already capture some embedding context (embedding_client, embedding_version since v51), but don't track auth method, tenant, GDPR-sensitive request metadata, or security enforcement flags.
