SnapGPT settings
Configure SnapGPT feature settings and pipeline standards for your environment in Admin Manager.
The SnapGPT settings screen in Admin Manager lets you control SnapGPT behavior for your environment. It provides the following options:
Settings

The following SnapGPT settings are available for your environment:
| Setting | Purpose | |
|---|---|---|
| Enable SnapGPT |
Turns SnapGPT on for users in the environment. |
|
| Schema retrieval |
When enabled, SnapGPT uses the schema to create more accurate SQL queries for SQL Snaps. If disabled, SnapGPT creates queries that will likely require editing before use. |
|
| Use preview data schema |
When enabled, SnapGPT has access to preview data to generate expressions. If disabled, generated expressions might not be as accurate. |
|
| Describe pipeline |
When enabled, users can ask SnapGPT to create pipeline documentation. No sensitive information is sent to the LLM. If disabled, the describe pipeline feature isn't available. |
|
| Use preview data for contextual metadata |
When enabled, users can right-click any Snap of a successfully validated pipeline
in Designer and select
Get preview data insights in SnapGPT to receive insights
into key fields, business and validation rules, and Personally Identifiable
Information (PII). Learn more about getting preview data
insights.
Important: Enabling this
setting allows SnapGPT to view and analyze sensitive information such as PII
data. |
|
| Use my existing pipelines for enhanced pipeline generation | Auto |
SnapGPT automatically selects pipelines from the environment to use as examples for Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG). Users can choose Auto, Manual, or Disable in their personal SnapGPT settings. |
| Manual |
Users select pipelines manually for SnapGPT to use as examples for RAG. Users can choose Manual or Disable in their personal settings. |
|
| Disable |
Disables RAG for the environment and in personal settings. |

To restrict specific users from accessing SnapGPT, refer to Block users from SnapGPT.
Pipeline standard
Add naming conventions, error-handling rules, or other organizational standards in Markdown
(.md) format for SnapGPT to use when generating or refining pipelines.
You can enter standards directly in the Markdown editor or upload a Markdown file.
Standards set to Always are enforced on every generate or refine pipeline request. Standards set to Optional appear in SnapGPT for users to select themselves.

How it applies
| Value | Behavior |
|---|---|
| Always | Applied automatically for all users in your environment on every pipeline generation and refinement request. Users cannot opt out. |
| Optional | Stays published but is not applied automatically for your environment. Users can enable it from the Standards panel in SnapGPT. |
Add a standard
Use either of the following methods:
- Click New standard: Enter a name (
.mdis appended automatically), enter the information for the standard in the Markdown editor, use Preview to check rendering, then click Create standard.
- Click Upload: Drag and drop or browse for an existing
.mdfile.
When standards are published, users can apply them from the + menu in the chat input box. Refer to SnapGPT pipeline standards.
