Target Audience

Target Audience


- Data Analysts: Professionals looking to query databases efficiently and gain insights from data without deep SQL knowledge.
- Developers: Individuals who want to integrate AI-driven chat capabilities into their applications for database interactions.
- Business Intelligence Teams: Teams needing quick access to database information for reporting and analysis.
- Database Administrators: Admins who want to automate queries and streamline data retrieval processes.

Problem Solved

Problem Solved


- Inefficient Data Access: Users can interact with their PostgreSQL database using natural language queries, eliminating the need for complex SQL commands.
- Time-Consuming Queries: The workflow automates the process of retrieving data, allowing users to get answers quickly, thus saving valuable time.
- Lack of Technical Knowledge: Non-technical users can still access and analyze data without needing extensive SQL training.

Workflow Steps

Workflow Steps


1. Trigger: The workflow begins when a chat message is received, initiating the interaction.
2. AI Agent: The AI agent processes the user’s request, utilizing a system message to guide its responses related to database queries.
3. OpenAI Model: The AI agent queries the OpenAI chat model to generate responses based on the user’s input.
4. Get DB Schema and Tables List: The agent retrieves a list of database schemas and tables to understand the available data.
5. Get Table Definition: If a specific table is requested, the workflow fetches its structure, including column names and types.
6. Execute SQL Query: The agent runs the generated SQL query against the PostgreSQL database to retrieve the requested data.
7. Chat History: The workflow maintains a memory buffer to keep track of previous interactions for context in ongoing conversations.
8. Results Delivery: Finally, the results from the SQL query are returned to the user, completing the interaction.

Customization Guide
