🔍 What You’re Doing

In this step, you’ll build a Pipeline using Nexadata’s AI Copilot. Instead of manually configuring transformations, you’ll use a natural language prompt to describe how to join, filter, and map your datasets. Nexadata will automatically generate the transformation plan, allowing you to review and approve each step.


✅ Summary of Steps

  1. Go to the Pipelines tab in your Workflow and click New Pipeline.

  2. Name your Pipeline (e.g., Segment Hierarchy Copilot Build).

  3. Under AI Copilot, click Launch.

  4. Click Add Dataset and select the following:

    • demo_Customers

    • demo_Orders

    • Make sure demo_Customers is set as Primary

  5. In the Prompt field, paste the following instruction:

    Build a segment hierarchy based on total order volume per customer aka "Company". Create a mapping group on the country column where Customers with 20,000 or more in total sales should be classified as 'Strategic', and less than 20,000 and from the USA as 'Domestic', and all others as 'International'. Sort by segment.

  6. Click Choose Sample Output Dataset.

  7. Select the Segment Hierarchy dataset as your output.

  8. Click Generate Instructions.

  9. Review the AI Copilot Pipeline Plan that appears on the right — scroll down to see all steps.
