What you can do
- Map Pipelines — Instruct your AI to list all active Sources (Web, iOS, Android) and immediately see which Destinations they route data to
- Audit Tracking Plans — Pull in specific event tracking schemas or 'Tracking Plans' to confirm payload structures with developers effortlessly
- Review Warehousing — Have the agent list all authorized Data Warehouses hooked into the workspace to confirm downstream compliance
- Governance Automation — Query unique namespace IDs directly from the Public API without needing to click through slow dashboard settings
