ADM Actions

Agentic Data Management (ADM) can make changes in Acceldata Data Observability Cloud (ADOC) for you, in addition to answering questions. For example, you can ask ADM to create a data quality policy, change a profiling schedule, or tag an asset. ADM prepares each change as a card, and you review the card and run the change yourself.

Why use actions

Without actions, you find the answer in ADM and then make the change on the related ADOC page. With actions, you make the change in the same conversation where you investigated the issue. For example, after ADM shows that a table has no freshness checks, you can ask ADM to create a freshness policy for it.

How actions work

You stay in control: ADM never applies a change on its own. Each change appears as a card, and the change happens only when you run it.
Your permissions apply: Each change runs with your own ADOC permissions. You can't use ADM to make a change that your permissions don't allow.
ADM asks before it decides for you: When a setting is yours to decide, such as a schedule or a threshold, ADM asks you before it prepares the card.

Before you begin

Actions are turned off by default. To turn them on for your tenant, contact Acceldata Support. After Actions is turned on, the Actions Agent appears under Settings > ADM Settings > Agents.

Changes that ADM can make

Policies: Create, update, run, schedule, enable, disable, archive, and restore policies of all types.
Profiling: Run profiling, change the profiling schedule, and set up incremental profiling.
Tags: Create tags, and apply them to assets, policies, pipelines, and data products.
Data products: Create and update data products, including their documentation and comments.

Make a change with ADM

In the left navigation, select Agentic Data Management > Home.
In the chat box, describe the change that you want. For example, type Create a freshness policy for the orders table.
If ADM asks for a setting, such as a schedule or a threshold, answer the question.
Review the card that ADM prepares. Check the details of the change, such as the asset and the settings, before you run it.
Run the change from the card. [To be confirmed: the label of the control that runs the change, and how ADM shows that the change succeeded.]

Create many policies at once

While Actions is turned on, ADM handles policy changes in a conversation one policy per card. To create many policies at once, ask ADM to use the policy creation workflow instead. For example, type Use the policy creation workflow to create data quality policies for the tables in the sales schema.
