Spotter Analysts are use-case-scoped AI analysts that bring governed, pre-configured natural language analytics to your embedded applications.
Overview🔗
Instead of showing a blank Spotter prompt and expecting users to pick the right data source and ask the correct questions to get the right answers, you can provide them with a pre-configured, governed Analyst that is scoped with the right data context. With the data pre-scoped to what the team is allowed to access and the tools governed accordingly, every team member gets the same context without having to configure anything themselves.
ThoughtSpot allows users to create and manage Analysts directly within the Spotter interface. Each Analyst is scoped to a data model and can be configured with custom instructions, tool restrictions, and conversation starter options. You can also set share permissions and administrative controls to determine who can access or modify the Analyst in the embedded view.
Spotter Analysts in the embedded view🔗
When Spotter Analysts are enabled on your ThoughtSpot instance and sidebar is visible in the embedded view, the Analysts panel and dashboard are visible by default. The sidebar also includes the option to view a specific Analyst or open the dashboard to view all the available Analysts.
Customizing the Analyst panel visibility🔗
To control the visibility of the Spotter Analysts panel in the embedded sidebar, use the SpotterAnalystSidebar action ID in the disabledActions or hiddenActions array.
The following example shows how to hide the Spotter Analysts panel from the embedded view:
Control individual Analyst actions🔗
When Analysts are enabled in the embedded view, you can show or hide specific menu actions using the following action IDs:
| Action ID | Description |
|---|---|
| Action ID for the Create new action for creating a new Spotter Analyst. |
| Action ID for the edit option for an existing Analyst. |
| Action ID for the Make a copy action for duplicating an Analyst. |
| Action ID for the share action for sharing an Analyst with other users. |
| Action ID for the delete option for removing an Analyst. |
const spotterEmbed = new SpotterEmbed(document.getElementById('ts-embed'), {
// ...other embed view configuration options
hiddenActions: [
Action.DeleteAnalyst,
],
});Customizing label strings🔗
If you want to replace the default "Analyst" or "Analysts" text with terminology that matches your application, use the spotterAnalystLabel and spotterAnalystsLabel locale customization strings.
For example, you might want to use "AI Assistant" instead of "Analyst" in your embedded application:
const spotterEmbed = new SpotterEmbed(document.getElementById('ts-embed'), {
// ...other embed view configuration options
spotterSidebarConfig: {
// show sidebar panel
enablePastConversationsSidebar: true,
// Custom label for a single Analyst (default: "Analyst")
spotterAnalystLabel: 'AI Assistant',
// Custom label for the Analysts section heading (default: "Analysts")
spotterAnalystsLabel: "AI assistants",
},
});
