Elglide AI, Your AI Assistant

Elglide AI lives inside Elglide, on every page. Ask it about your pipelines in your own words, in any language: when they run, how last night went, why a sync failed. With your go-ahead, it can also set things up and fix them for you.

Elglide AI in plain English · 2:31

What you can ask

  • Schedules: when a pipeline or table runs, and which tables have a schedule.
  • Sync history: how today's syncs went, how many rows each run read and wrote.
  • Why a sync failed: it reads the run's log and explains the cause in plain words.
  • Data quality checks: whether a table's latest audit passed, and by how much it differed.
  • Connections, tables and agents: what a pipeline loads, how a column is mapped, whether an agent is online.
  • Usage: how many rows you have synced this month.

Answers come from your own organization's pipelines, runs, logs and agents, and each one links to the page it came from, so you can check it there.

Using the panel

  • It knows the page you're on. On a task's page, "why did this fail?" means that task.
  • All Chats: the clock button lists your earlier chats so you can reopen one. Start a fresh one with the plus button.
  • Effort: Low answers fastest; High thinks longer on harder questions and uses more of your allowance.
  • Provider: when your organization has more than one AI provider, pick which one answers.

What it can do for you

Switch the panel's mode from Read-only to Ask Before Changes, and Elglide AI can also:

  • Add a connection (you type its password on the card, never in the chat)
  • Register a hybrid agent, which you then install from Connectivity › Hybrid Agents
  • Add a table to a pipeline, or create a new pipeline
  • Run a table now, or retry a failed run
  • Pause or resume a table's schedule
  • Test a connection

What it can't do

These stay in the portal, where you do them yourself: changing a schedule, a column map or merge keys; deleting anything; a full reload; editing a connection; adding a key-pair, SSH, SFTP, SMB, cloud storage or REST API connection; managing users, billing or Elglide AI settings; cancelling a run. Ask, and it tells you where to go.

Nothing changes without your click

Elglide AI never makes a change by itself. It shows you a card with exactly what it will do and where, and nothing happens until you confirm. Choose Not Now and nothing changes. In Read-only mode it only answers questions.

It works as you

  • Your role, your limits. Elglide AI has exactly the permissions of the person signed in. Changes are for Admins and Owners. A Steward's assistant sees what a Steward sees in the portal and never changes anything; task audits, agent logs, schema maps and source table lists are for Admins and Owners. See Tenant roles compared.
  • Your organization only. It can never reach another organization's data.
  • Only what the app allows. Every lookup and change goes through the same checks as the page you would use yourself.
  • Your chats are yours. Only you can see your chats, and each is deleted 30 days after its last message.

Turn it on

Elglide turns Elglide AI on for your organization first; contact us to ask. Then an Admin sets it up under Account › Elglide AI:

  • Providers: the AI providers made available to your organization, each with a free monthly allowance, and the one the panel starts on. Where allowed, add your organization's own API key: usage on it is billed by your provider, not Elglide.
  • Allow Actions: lets Admins and Owners use Ask Before Changes. With it off, Elglide AI only answers questions.
  • Scale Up: where Elglide offers it, a monthly cap of paid extra tokens after the free allowance, charged from your Elglide balance on the 1st.
  • Limits by role: a monthly allowance per role. Blank means no role limit; 0 turns Elglide AI off for that role. Overrides set a different limit for one person.
  • Usage: who used how much this month.

Limits

  • A message can be up to 4,000 characters.
  • A chat holds up to 40 of your messages; then start a new one.
  • One answer gets up to 10 rounds of lookups. For a wide question, ask about one pipeline or table at a time.
  • A card waits 10 minutes for your click; after that, ask again.
