Tasks are scheduled automations that run an AI-powered prompt on a recurring basis and deliver the results to you automatically. Instead of manually asking the same question every day or week, create a task and let ClarityQ handle it.

​
How Tasks Work

A task is a combination of:
  • A prompt — The question you want ClarityQ to answer (e.g., “What were yesterday’s key metrics?”)
  • A schedule — When to run it (daily, weekly, or monthly at a specific time)
  • Delivery channels — Where to send the results (email, Slack, and/or in-app)
When a task runs, the agent executes your prompt just like it would in Ask Anything — searching the Semantic Catalog, running SQL, and generating results. It then produces a summary and delivers it to your configured channels.

Task Statuses

Task Results

Every time a task executes, the results appear in the Results tab. Each result includes:
  • Summary — A concise 3-4 sentence overview of the key findings
  • Status — Running, Completed, or Failed
  • Timestamp — When the task executed, shown in your timezone
  • Full conversation — Click a completed result to view the complete agent response, including data tables and visualizations
Unread results are marked with a dot so you can easily see which ones you haven’t reviewed yet.
