Datasets: for numbers that aren't in a connected system

Upload budgets, targets, price lists or history from a platform you've retired. Sophia answers from them and workflows read the current version on every run.

Some of the numbers you work with do not live in a connected system. Budgets agreed in a meeting, price lists, targets, history from a platform you have stopped using.

Datasets give that data somewhere to live. Upload a file, replace it when it changes, and Sophia can answer questions from it. Workflows read the current version on every run, so a report comparing actuals against target uses the target you uploaded this morning rather than the one from March.

CSV and Excel files are supported, up to the size limit shown on the upload screen.

Find them under Datasets, in the Workflows area.
