AI Description Editor
Use Secoda's AI Description Editor to efficiently generate and edit resource descriptions.
Overview
The AI Description Editor is a powerful tool in Secoda that integrates seamlessly into your Catalog, Glossary, and Collections. It enables one-click bulk edits to the Description field, significantly accelerating the process of enriching metadata with consistent and relevant content.
How It Works
The AI Assistant generates descriptions for your resources by analyzing existing metadata in your workspace. It adjusts to match the tone and style prevalent in your current descriptions, ensuring consistency across the board. You have the flexibility to accept the suggested description, request additional iterations, or directly edit the text as needed.
Admins can further tailor the auto-generated descriptions by providing #descriptions-custom-instructions in the AI Settings.
