Example Prompts

These are starting points, not the only way to phrase things. Your assistant picks the right tools from the Tool Reference based on what you ask, rather than on you naming a tool.

"Why did this integration fail last night?"

Your assistant looks up the integration's recent runs, finds the failed one, and reads back its errors, typically pairing a run history lookup with a detailed read of that specific run.

"What breaks if I deprecate this table?"

Before you make a change, your assistant can estimate the downstream blast radius: which integrations, models, or destinations read from this table today, and how confident that picture is.

"Turn off this monitor and tell me why it's been firing."

Your assistant reads the monitor's recent measurement history to explain the failures, then disables it, asking you to confirm before the change goes through, since this is a write action.

"What's the health of my workspace right now?"

A one-shot summary across your catalog, integrations, monitors, and open issues, and a good daily check-in. Because it reads every product area at once, it needs visibility into integrations and observability as well as the catalog; see Authentication & Access Management.

"Who changed this monitor's configuration last week?"

Your assistant reads the audit history for that monitor to show who changed what, and when.

"Find every table with 'orders' in the name and show me its lineage."

Your assistant searches the catalog by name, then traces upstream and downstream lineage for the tables it finds.
