Generative Dashboards

Generative dashboards let you build a dashboard by describing it to Agentic Data Management (ADM) in plain language. ADM creates the charts and tables from your data in Acceldata Data Observability Cloud (ADOC), and you refine the dashboard by continuing the conversation. You don't need to choose chart types or write queries.

Why use generative dashboards

A conversation answers a question once. A dashboard keeps the same view of your data available, so you and your team can check it again whenever you need to. Use a generative dashboard for views that you review regularly, such as a weekly data quality review or a daily pipeline health check.

Before you begin

Generative dashboards are turned off by default. To turn them on, contact Acceldata Support. The setting applies to your entire ADOC deployment, not to individual tenants.

Create a dashboard

In the left navigation, select Agentic Data Management > Home.
In the chat box, describe the dashboard that you want. Include the topic, the time range, and the information that the dashboard should show.
Review the dashboard that ADM builds.

Example: Type a data quality board for the last 30 days with the top failing policies. ADM builds a dashboard that shows data quality results for the last 30 days and lists the policies that failed most often.

Refine a dashboard

To change a dashboard, ask for the change in the same conversation. For example, ask ADM to add a chart of policy failures by data source, or to show only the last 7 days.

ADM saves each change as a new version of the dashboard. If you don't want a change, you can go back to an earlier version. [To be confirmed: where you view and restore earlier versions of a dashboard.]

Publish a dashboard

Publish a dashboard when other users need it. A published dashboard appears under Agentic Data Management > Dashboards for everyone in the workspace.

A published dashboard loads its data live each time someone opens it. Each viewer sees only the data that they have access to in ADOC, so two users can see different results on the same dashboard.

Use the built-in Acceldata dashboards

ADM includes built-in dashboards for data quality, pipelines, incidents, freshness, reconciliation, and data products. Use a built-in dashboard when you need a standard view without building one yourself. To change a built-in dashboard, clone it, and then customize the copy.

Manage dashboards

You can do the following tasks with a dashboard:

Clone: Create a copy of a dashboard that you can change without affecting the original.
Export and import: Export a dashboard to a file, or import a dashboard from a file.
Download as PDF: Save a copy of the dashboard as a PDF file, for example, to share it with someone who doesn't use ADOC.
Colors and fonts: Set the colors and fonts that each dashboard uses.
