Description Skill

This skill generates or improves business-friendly descriptions for analytics objects using available context. Use this skill when users want to add or enhance descriptions for metrics, attributes, facts, or other analytics objects to make them more understandable and discoverable.

How It Works

The Description skill analyzes analytics objects and their context to generate or improve business-friendly descriptions. When activated, the assistant:

1. Loads the object and its direct children to gather context
2. Analyzes the object’s definition, relationships, and usage
3. Generates a clear, business-friendly description
4. Uses available metadata and context to ensure accuracy
5. Provides descriptions that help users understand what the object represents

The skill uses available context from the object definition, related objects, and workspace metadata to create descriptions that are both accurate and accessible to business users.

Examples

Adding a Description The user asks: Add a description to the Gross Margin metric. The AI Assistant then:

• opens the metric to understand its definition and context,
• generates a clear description, and
• updates the metric metadata.

Improving Descriptions The user asks: Make the Customer Segment attribute description clearer. The AI Assistant then:

• reviews the current description,
• rewrites it to improve clarity, and
• saves the updated text.

Generating Descriptions The user asks: Generate descriptions for metrics that don’t have them. The AI Assistant then:

• finds metrics missing descriptions,
• generates appropriate descriptions based on their definitions, and
• applies the updates.

More Example Prompts

• Describe what this attribute represents.
• Make the description for Sales Amount more business-friendly.
• Create descriptions based on the object definitions.

Limitations

• Requires appropriate permissions to update object metadata
• Description quality depends on available context and object definitions
• May not capture all business nuances without additional user input
• Works best when objects have clear definitions and relationships
