Databricks AIBI Dashboard empowers teams to present business metrics through rich, intuitive visualizationsโand share them securely with anyone. With collaborative authoring and co-authoring, building dashboards becomes a seamless team effort. Once finalized, dashboards can be published to production environments automatically, with embedded credentials or viewer-specific access controls to ensure secure data sharing.
But what happens when leadership asks for last-minute changes or ad hoc data points? Making repeated updates in a non-production environment and pushing them to production each time can drain productivityโand still may not address leadershipโs exact analytical intent.
Thatโs where Genie Space from Databricks comes in.
Meet Genie Space: Your Data, Just a Question Away
Genie Space lets users interact with data using natural language. It can interpret questions, generate visualizations, and surface insights instantly. The catch? Users need to ask questions every time they want new information.
So, what if you could bring this power directly into your AIBI Dashboard?
Introducing Genie-Integrated AIBI Dashboards
Now, you can embed Genie Space directly into AIBI Dashboardsโmerging guided visual storytelling with on-demand exploration. Users can click on any visualization to dive deeper or simply chat with Genie right within the dashboard interface.
This interactive experience unlocks faster insights, more flexibility, and increased engagementโwithout constant development cycles.
How to Enable Genie Space in AIBI Dashboard (2 Simple Steps)
Step 1: Enable Genie on Publish
While publishing your AIBI Dashboard, turn on the Genie integration toggle. You can either:
Link to an existing Genie Space (preferably one built on similar datasets), or
Create a new Genie Space from scratch.
Tip: You can include additional datasets in Genie Space beyond what's in the dashboard to support more comprehensive questions.
Step 2: Add the Genie URL to link existing Genie Space
Paste the Genie Space URL into the setup panel to link it with your AIBI Dashboard. Once done, publishโand youโre all set!

Contextual Insights: Right-click any chart or table and select โAsk Genieโ to explore further.
Flexible UI: Overlay the Genie chat window on your dashboard, dock it to the side, or open it in a separate tab.
