Prompt
Use my Kater data to answer this question: How did change from the previous , by ? --- Data: Measure: Use the measure as Kater defines it. Do not write its calculation again. Show for each and , the value for the before, and the change as a number and a percent. Use a Kater calendar comparison for the previous , not a window over the rows of the result. Write a Kater SQL query, then run it. Show me the SQL, the result and one sentence on what stands out. If a name I gave does not match a field, show me the closest fields and ask me before you continue.

Fill in the blanks, then copy the prompt into the Ask panel in Kater or into your own agent (Connect your agent). A blank you leave empty stays in brackets, and your agent asks you for it.

What your agent does

  • Finds the semantic model, the measure and each other field you named. When a name does not match, it shows the closest fields and asks you.
  • Adds a calendar comparison, so a missing period stays empty and never takes the value of an earlier row.
  • Runs the query and shows you the SQL, the result and one sentence on what stands out.

Example

For the Ad Reporting semantic model (ad_reporting), the question is:

How did Spend change from the previous month, by Platform?

Select Use the example to fill in every blank with it.
