FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI change my environment settings?

    No. The AI can only read the environment data to report on its status. It cannot modify configurations or change settings in Matillion.

  • 02

    Does the AI see my actual data inside Snowflake?

    No. The AI only accesses the environment metadata and connectivity details. It does not touch your raw data tables.

  • 03

    Can I audit environments I haven't connected to Matillion?

    No. The AI can only see the environments that are already configured and visible through your Matillion connection.

  • 04

    How does the AI know if a connection is broken?

    The AI uses the environment data to check if the destination credentials and endpoints are valid and reachable.

  • 05

    Can the AI fix a failed connection for me?

    No. The AI identifies the failure, but you must log in to Matillion to fix the configuration or credentials yourself.
