Structure Formula Assistant

Agents are not available to all customers yet.

The Structure Formula Assistant is a Rovo agent designed to simplify the creation and validation of formulas, which can be leveraged within Structure. 

To create a custom formula using the Structure Formula Assistant:

1. Use natural language to describe what you want the formula to achieve. You can ask to "Show all tasks completed in the last 7 days" or "Calculate the total story points for all subtasks in a project." The assistant will instantly generate a formula based on your input.

2. Copy and paste the resulting formula into a Structure formula column. Review the results to ensure it meets your expectations.

3. If you need adjustments or have additional queries, ask the Formula Assistant to tweak the formula for you.

You can also use the built-in examples or advanced formulas to further refine your workflow.

The Structure Formula Assistant is an experimental AI product. We recommend independently verifying the resulting formulas before taking any critical actions based on them.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Structure Formula Assistant, and how does it work?

The Structure Formula Assistant is an AI-powered tool designed to simplify the process of creating and managing formulas within the Structure PPM tool.

This makes it easier for users of all skill levels to create powerful formulas without needing in-depth technical expertise.

How can I confirm if the formula is valid?

The assistant generates a formula based on its understanding of your input. While the formula is syntactically validated, it’s important to test it within Structure to ensure it produces the desired results. If adjustments are needed, you can provide additional input to the assistant to refine and improve the formula.

Does the agent query any external sources to create the formula?

No, the Structure Formula Assistant only uses information in the prompt and your question to generate a result.
