Working with assistants
Assistants offer an interface to interact with a range of data sources through natural language questions. Assistants can be for personal use or shared with other users to consume inside or outside Qlik Cloud.
Assistants allow you to offer domain-specific experiences that pull on multiple sources of information.
Assistants are available through Qlik Cloud, but can be embedded into your workflows and systems. The chat can be embedded into other web interfaces in other systems using Qlik Embed. You can also create custom UI using APIs. For more information, see Qlik Developer.
