Page 3 — New Session
Clicking the + (New Session) button in the sidebar starts a fresh AI chat session. This is the fastest way to begin a new conversation with your data without going back to the Homepage first.
How to Start a New Session
- Click the
+icon in the left sidebar (labelled New Session on hover) - A blank session opens immediately — ready for your first question
- Type your question in the chat input and press Enter
What Happens When You Start a New Session
- A new unique session ID is created (e.g. #2209)
- The session inherits the currently active workspace and data sources
- The agents and scope settings from your last session are carried over by default
- You can adjust agents and scope before or after asking your first question
Session vs Homepage Chat
| Homepage Chat | New Session (+) | |
|---|---|---|
| Creates a new session | Yes | Yes |
| Shows Deployed Apps panel | Yes | No |
| Shows Recent Sessions panel | Yes | No |
| Faster to start | No | Yes |
Tip: Use New Session when you want to start a fresh conversation quickly without navigating back to the Homepage.
After the Session Opens
Once the session is open, the interface is the same as the Homepage chat input:
- Type
@to reference a specific data table - Use the Agents button to toggle which AI agents are active
- Use the Scope button to limit which data domains are searched
- Attach a file using the paperclip icon
- Submit with Enter or the ↑ send button
All sessions are automatically saved and appear in the Sessions page.
