How to audit 4D database structures with your AI

Connect your agent to your 4D environment to pull the full schema. You can then query specific field types or map out relationships without manual inspection.

Short answer

How can I audit my 4D database schema using AI?

Your agent uses the get_catalog tool to pull the complete list of DataClasses and fields from your 4D environment. You get a structured map of your entire database schema. This breakdown shows you exactly how the data is organized.

Where your data lands.

The audit outcomes.

The AI organizes the raw catalog data into these specific views.

SCHEMA

Full structural map

The agent pulls every DataClass. You get a complete list of your database architecture.

FIELDS

Field availability check

The AI identifies every field within your classes. You can verify if specific data points exist.

TYPES

Data type verification

The agent checks the specific types for each field. This helps you catch mismatches in your logic.

HUMAN

Manual review

The AI provides the raw field list for you to inspect. You decide if the schema meets your needs.

The workflow

What your AI does when the connection is live.

The agent acts as a bridge between your database and your chat interface.

  1. Fetch the catalog

    The agent pulls the complete list of all available objects and structures from your 4D environment.

    get_catalog

  2. Map the hierarchy

    The agent organizes the retrieved data into a readable hierarchy of classes and fields.

    get_catalog

  3. Verify field types

    The agent inspects the specific properties and types of each field found in the catalog.

    get_catalog

  4. Identify missing data

    The agent compares your requested fields against the actual database structure to find gaps.

    get_catalog

FAQ

How this task behaves.

  • 01

    Can the AI change my database structure?

    No. The agent can only read the schema using the get_catalog tool. It cannot create, delete, or modify any fields or classes.

  • 02

    Does the AI see my actual row data?

    No. This task only accesses the metadata and schema structure. It does not read the contents of your records.

  • 03

    How does the AI know which fields are available?

    The agent uses the get_catalog tool to pull the current list of DataClasses and fields directly from your 4D environment.

  • 04

    Can I use this to write 4D code?

    The agent can suggest code based on the schema it sees, but you must manually verify and run any code in your 4D environment.

  • 05

    What happens if a field name is misspelled?

    The agent will report that the field does not exist because it can only find what is explicitly listed in the database catalog.
