Using Database Search
Database Search enables you to query structured data efficiently using natural language. It supports multiple databases and ensures secure access control for enterprise use.
Note: Database Search currently works only with GPT-4, as it uses an agentic approach that requires a more complex LLM than the one used for Interplay RAG Pro.
Viewing Connected Databases¶
On the left sidebar, you can see all databases you've connected. This includes:
- Database name (e.g.,
intc_financials
) - Tables within the selected database
- Columns for each table, showing available fields
Click to Collapse
Clicking the dropdown for a database reveals all tables and columns within it:
- Expand each table to view its columns

Selecting a Database & LLM¶
- Select a database from the left panel.
- Ensure an LLM is selected in the top-right corner.

Connecting a Database¶
If no database is connected, you can:
- Click one of the database-type buttons at the top (CSV, MySQL, etc.)
- Go to My Databases in Settings for advanced configuration
Click to Collapse
Querying a Database¶
Once your database and LLM are selected, you can start querying using natural language:
- Type your question in the input box
- Use the pre-provided query cards for common operations
Example Queries¶
- "Show me the revenue trends for the last three years."
- "List the top 10 customers by purchase amount."
- "Summarize financial data for each quarter."
Database Search streamlines complex data interactions by eliminating the need for SQL.
