Ask Studio Assistant

Use the following workflow as guidance when chatting with the Studio Assistant.

  1. Enter a question in plain language.

  2. Review the answer.

    • If applicable, click the Action button and select a referenced page from the list, for example, Model > Metrics. The Studio Assistant will navigate you to that location. The visibility of the Action button is based on your user access levels and whether there is relevant content to reference.

    • If the response contains a formula, click the Copy button in the upper-right corner of the code block to copy the text to your clipboard.

  3. Ask a follow-up question. The Studio Assistant retains your chat history in a single chat session, so you don't need to worry about retyping the whole question from scratch. You can ask multiple questions to delve deeper into a single inquiry.
  4. Rate the response. Click the Helpful button or Wasn't Helpful button to provide feedback. If a response wasn't helpful, please include a brief comment explaining what you expected to see. This helps the Studio Assistant improve future answers.

  5. Manage your conversation. The Studio Assistant retains context in a single chat session to better understand follow-up questions, maintain continuity, and provide more natural, relevant responses. You can control this by:

    • Starting a new conversation. Click the Reset button in the upper-right corner of the screen to clear the current chat. This is recommended when you want to switch to a completely new topic, if the current thread has become too long, or when you want a clean slate.

    • Resuming your most recent chat session. If you reset the chat or signed out and back in, you can click Restore last conversation at the bottom of the screen to pick up where you left off.

      Note: This option will no longer be available once you ask a question in your new chat session.

Tip: To resize the Studio Assistant, click the resize line and drag it to the desired width.

Formula explanations

You can use the Studio Assistant to help you understand the logic behind formulas for certain objects. If the formula is valid, it explains what it does. If it is invalid, it explains what the errors mean. It's available for metrics, calculated selection concepts, business rules, multi-subject rules, and extraction rules.

Simply click the Explain button next to a formula.

If the formula is valid, this will generate a clear explanation and breakdown of its logic from the Studio Assistant.

If the formula has a validation error, you can click the Explain button next to the error message.

This will generate an explanation of what the error means and provide guidance on how to fix it in your formula. This simplifies the debugging process, helping you resolve issues quickly and efficiently.
