Using an App in AgentSpot

An App is an interactive, multi-source data experience in AgentSpot that brings together data from across your organization — ThoughtSpot models, Google Sheets, Jira, Slack, and more — into a single, governed, shareable product that anyone on your team can use.

What is an App?

An App is a designed data experience built on top of your organization’s data sources. Unlike a report or a dashboard, Apps are highly interactive — you can click on components to filter views, drill into underlying detail, and explore the data without needing to know SQL or use a BI tool.

Apps are:

Multi-source — a single App can pull data from ThoughtSpot models, Google Sheets, Jira, Slack, and other connectors simultaneously, blending it all into one coherent experience
Governed — all data is scoped to the user viewing the App; row-level security (RLS) and column-level security (CLS) from ThoughtSpot models are enforced automatically, and connector data (such as Jira) is always scoped to the individual user’s own access
Interactive — filter by quarter, click on a card to see underlying detail, and explore the data in ways that go well beyond a static report
Shareable — publish an App once and share it with specific users or your entire organisation

Because data is always scoped to the person viewing the App, users can only see data they already have permission to access. No additional access controls need to be configured in the App itself.

Where to find Apps

From the AgentSpot home page, click you can find Apps on the AgentSpot home screen in two places:

My Apps

The My Apps section on the AgentSpot home page shows:

Apps published by you
Apps published by your teammates that have been shared with you

This is your primary view for Apps you use day-to-day.

If you or your team have not created any apps or no apps have been shared with you yet, you can browse apps available in your Org.

Browse Apps

Click Browse apps to explore the full catalogue of Apps that people across your organization have created and published. Use this to discover Apps built by other teams that may be relevant to your work. By default, the From My Org is selected displaying the Apps from your Org.

If you have created apps or apps have been shared with you, you can access them by clicking the My Apps tab.

A dedicated section within My apps shows only the Apps you have created, making it easy to manage and return to your own work.

Opening and using an App

To open an App, click it from the My Apps or From My Org tabs. The App loads and displays its full interactive experience.

Once inside an App, here are examples of things you can do:

Interaction	What it does
Click a filter control (e.g. a quarter selector)	Filters the data shown across the App to that selection
Click a card or data point	Drills into underlying detail for that metric or record
Scroll through sections	Explores different topic areas or data sources within the same App

Interaction

What it does

Click a filter control (e.g. a quarter selector)

Filters the data shown across the App to that selection

Click a card or data point

Drills into underlying detail for that metric or record

Scroll through sections

Explores different topic areas or data sources within the same App

Because Apps are not bound by a fixed set of components or interaction patterns, the specific controls available will vary by App. Explore what each App offers by interacting with its elements directly.

Data sources in Apps

A single App can connect to multiple data sources at the same time. Supported source types include:

Data sources — worksheets and governed semantic models from your ThoughtSpot instance
Connectors — Google Workspace (Sheets, Docs, Drive), Jira, Slack, and other services connected to AgentSpot

All sources are blended together within the App. The data each user sees is always governed by their individual permissions across every source — there is no separate layer of access management inside the App itself.

Creating your own App

Any user can create a new App directly from the My Apps section. For a full walkthrough of the creation process, see Creating an App in AgentSpot.
