Create AI-based charts or tables

You can ask Companion to analyze your process data, such as "What are the most common activities?" or "What is the average number of activities per case?". Companion creates an appropriate chart or table based on the criteria that you want to analyze and the data of the currently used data set. You can interact with the created charts and tables, integrate them into an analysis, or use them to filter your analysis.

Note that Companion uses the full analysis model of the data set to retrieve the answer if you use a Viewers license or you have View privileges on the project or analysis. Only Manage access to projects defined in the data set limits the result.

Prerequisite

You use the Viewers license or you have the View privilege for the project or analysis.

You asked Companion to help you analyze your process data.

You can use Companion in many ways to refine and personalize an AI-based component. For example, you can enter "show as bar chart" or "show as table" in the chat box to change the chart type of the component or display the data in a table instead of a chart.

You can also use the component to filter the data of your analysis or to select symptoms to analyze root causes.

To configure the view of the Companion chat panel, click the Sidebar Sidebar settings icon. You can collapse (Collapse), expand (expand), or pin (Pin) the panel. If you enable the Dock into view option, the panel becomes part of the view and elements such as the configuration panel, which could be covered by the Companion chat panel, are displayed next to the chat panel.
