Create a data product from an AI proposal

An AI agent can draft a data product proposal from an object already in the catalog. It creates nothing in the catalog itself: it hands you a link that opens the wizard with the proposal already filled in, instead of starting from a blank product.

Start a proposal

On an object’s detail page, a Promote to data product button appears when all of the following are true: an administrator has enabled Agent Studio for your environment, the object is flagged as a candidate for promotion, and you have write permission on the object.

1. Select Promote to data product. A Preparing a data product proposal. notification confirms the agent has started. It runs in the background, so you can keep working elsewhere while it does.
2. When it finishes, look for the notification that says Your data product proposal is ready, with an Open in wizard link. Select it to continue, as described in What happens next.

The agent can also come back without a proposal. It tells you why:

• The object is already part of a data product.
• The object can’t become one.
• The object has too many dependencies to model cleanly.
• No single domain could be determined.
• Data products aren’t configured for this environment.
• The run timed out or couldn’t be prepared.

Resolve the underlying issue (permissions, configuration, or an overly complex object) and try again, or build the product yourself with the wizard instead.

What happens next

Open the Open in wizard link and the wizard starts on Step 1: Basics with the proposal already filled in: the product’s identity and domain, the ownership roles the agent suggested, the catalog assets it picked, its ports, and any contract it drafted. From there the wizard behaves exactly as it does for a product you started yourself: work through the steps, correct whatever the agent got wrong, and finish with Save for later or Publish now. Nothing is written to the catalog until you choose one of those.

Two things differ from the normal start:

• The proposal replaces an unfinished draft. Following the link is itself your answer to resume or start over, so the wizard applies the proposal without showing the Resume draft banner and discards the draft it had saved. Finish or publish an in-progress product before you open a proposal link.
• The link applies once, then leaves the address bar. After the proposal loads, the wizard removes the token from the URL. The wizard only starts saving a draft once you make an edit or select Save for later. Do one of those before you reload the page or navigate away, or your next visit opens an empty wizard instead of resuming your edits.

Only a Contributor or an Administrator can open a proposal link. A Viewer sees the wizard’s error page, the same as for an unrecognized or mistyped token.
