Short answer

How can I upload and validate emissions data using my AI?

Your agent creates an upload container, populates it with activity records, and runs validation checks to catch errors before you submit. You'll get a clean, verified dataset ready for your emissions reporting.

Where every error lands.

The outcomes of your data workflow

Once your agent finishes the process, you'll land in one of these four states.

READY

Clean data for submission

The agent finishes validation without errors. You get a verified set of records ready to be sent to Watershed.

REJECTED

Validation error report

The agent finds mismatches or missing fields. You get a specific list of what needs fixing before you try again.

PENDING

Task status monitoring

The agent is still processing large batches of records. You can check in to see if the upload is finished or still running.

HUMAN

Manual review required

The agent flags data that looks suspicious or falls outside expected ranges. You decide whether to fix it or proceed.

The workflow

What your AI does when data arrives.

The agent takes your raw data and moves it through the Watershed pipeline.

  1. Initialize the upload

    The agent sets up a new container in Watershed to hold your upcoming data records.

    create_upload

  2. Populate records

    Your agent takes the raw activity data you provide and adds it to the container.

    upload_data_records

  3. Verify accuracy

    The agent runs a series of checks to ensure the data meets the required schema and logic.

    validate_upload

  4. Finalize submission

    Once the data passes all checks, the agent sends the completed upload to the system.

    submit_upload

FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can my AI automatically submit data without me seeing it?

    No. While the agent can perform the submission, you should always review the validation results first to ensure accuracy.

  • 02

    Will the AI delete existing records in Watershed?

    No. The tools provided only allow for creating, uploading, and validating data. There is no tool to delete records.

  • 03

    How do I know if the upload is still processing?

    You can ask your agent to check the status of the task, and it will use the status tool to give you a real-time update.

  • 04

    Can the AI fix data errors by itself?

    No. The agent can identify errors through validation, but you must provide the corrected data for it to upload.

  • 05

    Does the AI handle the actual file transfer?

    Yes. The agent uses the provided tools to move your data records into the Watershed environment.
