New ways for authors to get value from Natural Language Query (NLQ) in Amazon QuickSight

Natural Language Query is a powerful new data tool that can speed insight discovery when integrated into the BI suite. New Amazon QuickSight Q capabilities help existing analytics authors to do more with NLQ.

Guided setup

Natural Language Q&A is a powerful new capability and authors seeking to make the most of the technology need to understand some vital concepts. Amazon QuickSight Q has added guided topic setup to help authors familiar with analysis build simple and useful natural language topics.

Guided setup provides a simple set of step-by-step instructions that teach tools authors have at their disposal to improve topic performance. It helps people understand how well their topics are being adopted, identify concrete actions to improve, and to tailor for the particular language used in their business.

Authors can step out of guided setup at any time, and easily return to complete at their leisure.

Add to analysis

Authors building visuals need faster ways to get started, and easier ways to perform complex calculations. Add to analysis is a new capability which enables authors to use natural language to describe a visual they want, and then add directly to an existing analysis or dashboard. This speeds creation for common analysis types like bar charts, line graphs, and tables. It also helps authors to create more complex and difficult to achieve results like period over period comparisons. Visuals fit right in, automatically adopting themes in the analysis.
