ChatGPTThe Data agent in ChatGPT Work turns company data into answers, interactive dashboards and action through a conversation. Users add the Data Plugin, connect the data sources and business context they already use, then ask for what they need.
The launch puts data work inside the same chat interface used for prompts and follow-up questions. Instead of starting with a blank dashboard, users can begin with a question about connected company information and ask the agent to present the result.
The launch was shared in a LinkedIn post.
How the Data agent works
The setup described for the Data agent has three parts:
- 1
Add the Data Plugin
install it inside ChatGPT Work
- 2
Connect company data
link the sources and context already used by the organisation
- 3
Start the conversation
ask for answers, dashboards or action
The connected data and context provide the material for the conversation. A user can ask a question, receive an answer and request an interactive dashboard without moving the task into a separate interface.
Interactive dashboards add a visual output alongside direct answers. The post does not name particular chart types, data connectors or actions, but the workflow starts from the same connected company information.
From company data to action
The Data Plugin supplies the connection layer, while the conversation provides the instructions. This means the announced route into company data begins with adding the plugin rather than uploading information for every individual question.
The feature is presented for use across an organisation. People ask for the result they want, and the Data agent uses the connected sources and context to generate it. The same process covers a direct answer, an interactive dashboard or an action based on the data.
