Introducing NOVA: Query Your Data with GenAI

We're introducing a new way to interact with your organization's data through NOVA—the Nexla GenAI chatbot!

In the new NOVA chatbot interface, users can directly query their organization's data to obtain rapid, thorough, and accurate insights, expediting workflows by consolidating the data analysis process.

🔸  Harness the power of RAG & LLMs
When a query is submitted, NOVA uses retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) to provide comprehensive responses based on the selected data and any available metadata and/or other contextual information. RAG combines the power of search algorithms with the capabilities of large language models (LLMs), producing complete, accurate, and easily understandable responses.


🔸  Setup is easy
Initializing a NOVA session requires a service key, which users can generate via a simple one-step process in the Nexla UI. Once generated, this service key is stored in the user's account and can be reused to initialize all future NOVA sessions.

🔸  Query data from REST APIs, SQL databases, & vector databases
NOVA can be used to directly query detected and transformed Nexsets containing data from REST API sources, SQL databases, and vector databases. 

Learn more about NOVA and how to use it to query your data in our Querying Data Using GenAI tutorial!

Introducing the redesigned Nexla UI

Today, we're super excited to bring a major design update to the Nexla UI!

With this intuitive UI, using Nexla's powerful platform to complete any aspect of data operations is simpler and more efficient than ever.

Here's a look at what users will find in each section of the new Nexla UI:

  • Overview: The first screen shown after login displays at-a-glance statistics and flow information about the user's account. From here, links allow users to dive deeper into details or jump directly into an associated task.
  • Integrate: This section is the hub for creating and modifying data flows. Easily ingest, transform, and send data from anywhere to anywhere, all in one place.
  • Discover: Here, users can find all accessible Nexsets. Nexsets are now searchable, giving users a quick and efficient way to find and use any needed data.
  • Collaborate: The Nexla platform provides granular access controls for every data flow and component. Now, the Collaborate section makes understanding and managing these accesses simple.
  • Monitor: All of Nexla's robust monitoring information and functions can be accessed in this section. Users can complete any troubleshooting or governance task directly within the screens available in the Monitor section.
Check out the video below for a quick overview of the key aspects of this redesign.

A brand new Nexset Designer!


We are delighted to share an early holiday gift with you! When you login to your Nexla account you will see an upgraded Nexset Designer for data transformations. This is a big upgrade that brings an even easier and more powerful transform system applying elements both from user feedback and our product vision. A full tutorial for the new interface available to watch here Some of the highlights we are excited about include:
  • Nexset Rules: Transformations, Filters, Validations, Annotations all come together into a single entity as Nexset Rules.
  • Transform : Easy visibility in Nexset details view removes the need to pause/edit Nexset to see the transforms, filters, validations applied to a Nexset.
  • Save and Continue: Save rules for a Nexset as you work to create transforms in Nexset Designer, not just when closing the session.
  • No code transforms for Arrays and Nested Objects: By popular demand, even more advanced capabilities within reach of everyone.
  • Output Data Schema gets better with ability to hoist new attributes up to the root level. This also up-levels multi-value lookups
  • Recommendations for data transformations are here.
