Work with CluedIn Copilot

Copilot overview

CluedIn Copilot is an AI assistant designed to help you with day-to-day data management tasks through conversational prompts in any language.

You can open the Copilot chat from any place in CluedIn by clicking on the message icon in the lower-right corner of the page. The Copilot pane contains all chats marked with color circles. If you want to rename or delete a chat, go to Preparation > Copilot.

CluedIn Copilot currently has 40+ specific skills (also called functions). To get a list of all these skills, use prompts similar to the following:

What functions can you call?
What are all the functions that I can do?

You’ll find a description of each skill in Copilot skills.

To enhance your efficiency in interacting with CluedIn Copilot, you can chain different skills together. Instead of creating separate prompts for actions like creating, activating, and reprocessing a rule, you can combine these tasks into a single prompt: “Create a rule that tags all records with customer.country set to ‘Norway’ as ‘Nordic’, then activate and reprocess the rule”.

CluedIn Copilot is multilingual, so you can activate all skills in any language you want, it doesn’t have to be English.

In most cases, CluedIn Copilot knows your current location in the platform. You can write prompts referring to what is currently displayed on the page, such as this data set, this vocabulary key, and so on.

You can combine general knowledge with CluedIn skills in one prompt: “Can you create a golden record rule that tags Company records where the company.state is not one of the Australian states”.

Note that CluedIn Copilot does not offer a preview feature for its actions; it directly executes them.

Copilot skills

This section contains all CluedIn Copilot skills grouped by categories or modules. Each skill contains one or several prompt examples to give you an understanding of how to use its functionality effectively.

Sometimes you may encounter issues with CluedIn Copilot where it does not understand your requests as expected. In such cases, as with any generative AI solution, please start over and create a new chat.

Data set skills

CluedIn Copilot can analyze a data set to provide general overview, suggest possible mapping options, and create a mapping for the data set.

Copilot function	Description	Prompt example
DescribeDataSet	Provides general information about a data set: column description, possible validation checks, data quality issues, and so on. If you are on the data set page, you can just tell the Copilot to describe this data set. Otherwise, you can refer to the data set by its ID, which you can find in the URL of the page.

SuggestDatasetMapping	Provides suggestions on how to map a data set to an existing entity type and vocabulary. The suggested mapping can be used to define how the data set columns should be transformed and linked to the specified vocabulary. If you are on the data set page, you can just tell the Copilot to suggest mapping for this data set. Otherwise, you can refer to the data set by its ID, which you can find in the URL of the page.	Can you suggest a mapping from this data set to the Employee vocabulary? Can you suggest how to map this data set to the Company vocabulary?

EntitySearchByDataSetColumnSample	Allows you to check if the values you have chosen as an entity code can already be found in the system. This can be helpful when you want to ensure that the chosen entity codes are unique and do not already exist in the system.	Can you check if values in the customerId column already have values in the system?

CluedIn Copilot can create all types of rules—data part rules, survivorship rules, and golden records rules—and apply any rule action.

Copilot function	Description	Prompt example

CloneRule	Creates a copy of a rule. Once the copy is created, you’ll get a link to view and manage the rule.	Can you create a copy of this rule?
CreateGoldenRecordRule	Creates a new golden record rule. You can use this skill in one prompt along with activating and reprocessing a rule. Once the copy is created, you’ll get a link to view and manage the rule.

Once the rule is created, you’ll get a link to view and manage the rule.	Can you create a rule to transform all values of the contact.country vocabulary key to upper-case?
CreateSurvivorshipRule	Creates a new survivorship rule. You can use this skill in one prompt along with activating and reprocessing a rule. Once the rule is created, you’ll get a link to view and manage the rule.	Can you create a survivorship rule to define the winning value for organization.countryCode based on the most frequently used value?
DeactivateRule	Deactivates a rule.	Can you deactivate all golden record rules?
ReprocessRule	Reprocesses a rule to apply the rule’s actions to records that match the rule’s filter. This skill can be used in one prompt along with creating and activating a rule for more efficient data management tasks.	Create a rule that tags all records with customer.country set to ‘Norway’ as ‘Nordic’, then activate and reprocess the rule.
SuggestVocabularyKeyRules	Provides suggestions for validation or business rules for a particular vocabulary key. You can review these suggestions and then decide which rules to create. If you are on the vocabulary key page, you can just tell the Copilot to suggest rules for this vocabulary key.	Can you suggest rules for this vocabulary key?

Data catalog skills (vocabulary and vocabulary key)

CluedIn Copilot can create vocabularies and vocabulary keys as well detect anomalies in vocabulary key values.

Copilot function	Description	Prompt example
CreateVocabulary	Creates a new vocabulary with the specified name. Once a new vocabulary is created, you’ll get a link to view and manage the vocabulary details. If you are on the page of the entity type you want to associate the vocabulary with, you can just tell the Copilot to create the vocabulary for this entity type. If you don’t specify the entity type, it will be provided automatically, but you can change it later.	Can you create a new vocabulary called Company for the Company entity type? Can you create a new vocabulary called Company for this entity type?
CreateVocabularyKey	Creates a new vocabulary key with the specified name. If you previously created a vocabulary in the chat, the new vocabulary keys will be added to that vocabulary. You can create individual vocabulary keys one at a time by entering a separate prompt for each vocabulary key. However, if you need to create multiple vocabulary keys, you can instruct Copilot to perform the task in a single prompt.	Can you create 10 vocabulary keys including Name, Age, Gender, JobTitle, ContactNumber, Email, ManagedBy, Salary, Tenure and NickName?
ProfileVocabularyKey	Creates profiling for a vocabulary key.	Can you profile this vocabulary key?

DetectAnomaly	Detects anomalies in the top 10000 values of a vocabulary key. While viewing a vocabulary key, you can ask CluedIn Copilot to suggest some standardization of the data and it will recommend (but not change) values that are similar and that should be set up as rules.	Can you find any anomalies in this vocabulary key? If so, can you create a golden record rule per anomaly that tags it with “Invalid City“?
ListVocabularies	Lists all vocabularies.	Can you list all vocabularies that are currently used in the system?
ListVocabularyKeys	Lists vocabulary keys associated with a vocabulary.	Can you list all vocabulary keys associated with the Contact vocabulary?
