Step 2: Modify the App Using the 'Edit App Agent'

To customize AssetFlow Pro for your organization's needs, here's how I used the Edit App Agent:

  1. Select the Edit App Agent
  2. Instruct the AI to modify the structure, such as:
    • Add a column: "Insurance Coverage" in the Assets Table
    • Add a column: "Insurance Expiry Date" in the Assets Table
    • Add a formula field: "Days Until Insurance Renewal" in the Assets Table
  3. Confirm changes.

That's it—your asset management system is now tailored to your needs!

Step 5: Customize Metrics Using the 'Dashboard Agent'

To ensure the app shows meaningful insights, I used the Dashboard Agent. Here’s how you can too:

  1. Navigate to Dashboard Agent and prompt the graph you want to generate; here I asked to look at number of assets per vendor. Save changes, and the dashboard updates dynamically.
