Ask Magic

Ask Magic questions from the home page.

info
  • Ask Magic is in beta.
  • Ask Magic is available on Teams and Enterprise plans.
  • Users with Viewer roles can use Ask Magic to retrieve project results.
  • Users with an Explorer role or higher can also use Ask Magic to generate explorations.

Ask Magic enables users to get quick answers to their data questions. When a question is asked, Magic searches through published apps to return relevant existing analyses. Magic will also automatically generate an exploration tailored to answering the user's question, providing a starting point for further analysis.

Admins and workspace managers can help improve Magic project results by Endorsing projects and ensuring projects have comprehensive descriptions. Responses can also be improved by Endorsing data objects, which helps Magic identify trusted data sources.

In addition to returning relevant project results, Magic will return an exploration that can serve as a starting point to answer the user's question. Magic will search for the relevant warehouse table(s), define any required no-code joins, create calculations, and configure the exploration with the chart or pivot it finds best answers the user's question. Upon opening the exploration, users can use natural language to continue editing the exploration, or manually use the exploration's no-code, drag-and-drop functionality to continue iterating.
