Overview

When you ask the assistant to create a new object (table) or add properties (fields) to an existing object, it doesn’t write to your schema blind. It shows you a preview right in the chat (every object and property it plans to create, with each field’s name, type, options, and relation target), so you can see exactly what you’ll get before anything is saved. From the preview you can Refine the change in plain language, Build it, or Cancel. Nothing is written to your workspace until you press the create button.
Try it in a sandbox first. Ask the assistant to add a few fields to a sample object and watch the preview before you do it in your real workspace.

​
How it works

  1. You describe what you want, e.g. “add ARR, a Company relation, and a Status to Deals.”
  2. The assistant proposes a schema change and pauses on a preview card in the chat. The card lists each object and every property it plans to create. The field name, its type, any options (for select / status fields), and, for a relation, which object it links to.
  3. You review and adjust:
    • Refine: type what you’d like changed (“make Status a select instead”, “add a Close Date”) and the assistant re-proposes the preview in place. You can refine as many times as you like.
    • Build: the assistant creates the objects and properties for you.
    • Cancel: nothing is created; the assistant asks what you’d like to change.
  4. After you build, the new object and fields are part of your workspace like any other. You can rename, reorder, and configure them.

​
Relations

A relation property links records on one object to records on another (e.g. a Deal’s Company field pointing at the Companies object). In the preview, a relation shows its target object next to the field, so you can confirm it links to the right thing before it’s created. You can also ask for a back-reference, a matching field on the target object pointing the other way.

​
Troubleshooting

  • The assistant created a field without showing a preview. Adding fields now goes through the preview. If you don’t see one, make sure the request is about creating an object or property (not editing an existing record’s value, which doesn’t change the schema).
  • A relation field didn’t appear in the preview. A relation must point at a real object. If the assistant couldn’t tell which object you meant, it will ask, or leave that field out. Tell it explicitly (“link Company to the Companies object”) and refine.
  • The preview shows the wrong type for a field. Use Refine and say what it should be (“make Priority a select with High, Medium, Low”). The preview updates in place; nothing is written until you Build.
  • I want to change the fields after building. Once built, the object and its properties are normal schema. Open the object’s settings to rename, reorder, or reconfigure any field.
