Context Management

Manage context to improve agent performance across your workspace.

info

• Available on the Team and Enterprise plans.
• Admins, Managers, Editors, and Explorers can view the context management tab.
• Only Admins and Managers can create and edit context assets.

Context Management allows Admins and Managers to configure the guides, endorsements, and models that power agents across your workspace. Editors and Explorers can view these context sources in read-only mode for transparency into the information agents use.

Guides

The guides tab is where workspace context can be defined to help agents interpret questions and respond appropriately. Read more about Guides.

Endorsements

Endorsements indicate which data assets are trusted in your workspace. Endorsed assets are prioritized when agents answer questions and act as a clear visual signal to end users that the data has been reviewed and approved by workspace Admins or Managers.

Endorsements can be applied to multiple asset types, including:

• Schemas and tables in data connections
• Projects in your workspace
• Semantic models

Admins and Managers can also manage asset statuses directly on this page. See Endorsed statuses for more details.

Managing endorsements via API

In addition to the Context Studio UI, you can programmatically manage endorsements using the Hex API. This is useful for bulk updates or integrating endorsement management into your existing workflows. The following endpoints are available:

• UpdateSemanticProject — Update status for datasets and views in semantic models
• UpdateDataConnectionSchema — Update status for warehouse databases, schemas, and tables
• UpdateProject — Update status for projects

Semantic models

Semantic models define shared metrics, dimensions, and relationships used across Hex. When configured, agents can use these definitions to answer questions more consistently.

Context Studio shows how semantic models contribute to agent behavior and gives you another entry point into authoring and managing semantic models. To learn how to create and manage semantic models, see Semantic modeling.
