After you connect a database, VexiData automatically syncs your schema in three steps:
  1. Connecting — Verifies the connection and reads your database structure
  2. Analyzing — Maps tables, columns, types, relationships, and constraints
  3. Building metrics — Discovers business KPIs from your schema (revenue, user growth, etc.)
You can track progress in real time on the Data Sources page. Each connection shows a status indicator:

Managing your connections

Click the menu icon on any connected database to access:
  • Edit schema — Add descriptions to help AI understand your tables
  • Edit connection — Update host, credentials, or other settings
  • AI instructions — Customize how dashboards are generated
  • Business metrics — View and manage discovered KPIs
  • Remove — Delete the connection (with confirmation)

Generating dashboards

Once a connection shows AI Ready, go to the Dashboard page, select your database, and ask a question in natural language. VexiData will:
  1. Plan the dashboard layout
  2. Generate SQL queries against your database
  3. Create charts, metrics, and tables
  4. Assemble everything into an interactive dashboard
You can refine results with follow-up questions in the same conversation.
