Ask Kaiya about your Business View

Kaiya answers natural language questions about metadata—such as measures, dimensions, calculated columns, and date fields—so that you can quickly uncover key details about your Business View (BV) without technical expertise. Whether you're a business user trying to understand data relevance before diving into analysis or an analyst seeking granular technical details, Kaiya bridges the gap between technical metadata and business context.

Metadata queries accelerate data discovery, empowers non-technical users, and reduces the back-and-forth between teams. You can ask questions about the structure and content of your dataset (BV) to:

• Discover available columns (measures, dimensions, date fields, and calculated columns).

• Understand calculated column formulas and their purpose.

• Identify fields related to a specific concept or KPI.

• Bridge the gap between technical metadata (e.g., field definitions) and business relevance.
