#### Data Analysts

Use Trusty AI to discover relevant datasets for your reports and understand the quality of the data before you begin your analysis.

* "Find all datasets related to 'Customer Churn' in the marketing database."
* "What is the null rate for the `email` column in the `leads` table?"
* "What charts are available in the `Campaign Dashboard`?"
* "Compare the row counts of `stg_orders` and `fct_orders` for the last 7 days."

#### Data Governance Leads

Use Trusty AI to audit your documentation, track PII, and ensure that your data catalog aligns with your business glossary.

* "Which tables in the 'Sales' schema are missing descriptions?"
* "Identify all assets that are currently linked to the 'GDPR' business glossary term."
* "Show me a summary of data profiling results for the `orders` table to check for uniqueness constraints."

#### Tips for working with Trusty AI

To receive the most accurate information from Trusty AI, follow these guidelines:

* **Use Backticks for Asset Names**: When referencing a specific table, schema, or column, you enclose the name in backticks (e.g., `` `dim_users` ``) to help the model identify it as a technical asset that you're looking for.
* **Be Context-Specific**: Instead of asking "Show me monitors," try "Show me monitors in the Snowflake `Reporting` schema created in the last 30 days."
* **Leverage Follow-up Questions**: Trusty AI maintains session context. If you find a table, you can immediately ask a follow-up like "Now show me the profile statistics for that table."
* **Verify Outputs:** Trusty AI is an assistant designed to accelerate your workflow. For critical production changes, always verify the lineage or monitor status via the All Monitors or Lineage tabs in the Decube UI.
